"Called to ask a question and was more than helpful with the response. Although my need was not required by them, they were more than helpful. If in the future I have electrical needs I will definitely reach out to them. First impression, great customer service. Thank you from a grateful homeowner! Fast forward to today…..6/17/24 Well, I contacted Jacob today for an electrical need and he came promptly & fixed my issue. If anyone is Reading this review, please give The Electrical Company and Jacob a try. The rate was reasonable and the customer service was excellent. Thank you, Jacob! Boy…..did I miss judge this company. I have taken my 5 star review down to a 1. Very disappointing…..after a week my problem reoccurred. I rescheduled an appointment with Jacob; but Jacob never showed up. I called the next day to reschedule “again” ; but Jacob never picked up the call or returned my message. Very Poor Customer Service, Think about going elsewhere, very unreliable!"

We are a full-service electrical contractor providing exceptional quality and value-oriented services to residential, commercial and industrial clients of all sizes. The reason we can offer you such a great price is that we get all of our material direct from the manufacturer and as a courtesy we can pass that savings on to you! Our commitment to our clients is unsurpassed. We are easily accessible by phone and email. We recognize the value of your time, and work hard to avoid unnecessary delays. You can rely on our technicians to arrive on schedule and ensure that all work is completed in a timely manner. All of our employees have to pass a rigorous background check and are drug tested monthly through a third-party company.

"Because a storm brought down a giant tree that pulled down our power line, we needed service from Duquesne Light, but we also needed the immediate help and advice of an electrician. Renaissance Electric, in the person of Eric, responded immediately to my phone message (which was before regular office hours) and stayed in text contact with advice throughout the day until things were resolved. Enormously helpful!"

"Great product vs. cost ratio. Electrical inspector who checked their work, as required, after installation remarked that 'this company always does good work.' Completed the work in less than a day with little intrusion into my at home activities. One thing I would add is I wish they had spent a little more time explaining the controls and operation. I still don't know what the one circuit breaker on the outside does or if/when it would be used."

Generator installations FAQs

Installing a whole-house generator costs about $5,000 on average. Prices range from $1,550 to $8,500, depending on size, brand, fuel type, and assembly. The size of your whole-house generator is the most significant cost factor, with large homes with high energy demands costing the most to power. Types of whole-home generators include:

  • Portable generators with 1kW–7.5kW capacity: $500–$2,000

  • Partial generators with 9kW–20kW capacity: $2,000–$6,300

  • Whole-house generators with 22kW–48kW: $5,000–$18,000

When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.

When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 watts

Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running. 

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

The value of installing a whole-house generator is that your home has guaranteed power, even if the power grid in your area is down. Whether a whole-house generator is worth installing in your home depends on how often you use it, your home’s location, and your lifestyle. For example, installing a whole-house generator is likely worth it if you:

  • Experience frequent or prolonged power outages

  • Work from home

  • Store a lot of cold food

  • Have a sump pump

  • Have a pump for well water

  • Use electronic medical devices

  • Live in a climate requiring heating or cooling
