Backup Power That Works When You Need It

A standby generator connects directly to your home’s electrical system and fuel supply. When utility power drops, the automatic transfer switch detects it and signals your generator to start. Within 10 seconds, your home has power again. Unlike portable generators that require setup in bad weather, home generators sit outside your home on a concrete pad, ready to activate automatically. They run on natural gas or propane, so you’re not storing gasoline or making fuel runs during storms. We install complete systems—generator, transfer switch, permits, inspections, and connections to your electrical panel and fuel line. You get a turnkey solution that protects your home whether you’re there or away.

Installation That Meets Code Every Time

Generator installation in North Carolina requires permits, inspections, and compliance with state electrical codes. We handle the entire process—from pulling permits to coordinating inspections with local authorities. The installation includes sizing your system based on your home’s electrical load, placing the generator at code-compliant distances from structures and openings, pouring a level concrete pad, connecting to your fuel source, wiring the automatic transfer switch to your electrical panel, and testing the complete system under load. You’re not dealing with multiple contractors or chasing down permits. We coordinate everything, and the work gets done right the first time. Andy Helton’s 35+ years of experience means your installation meets manufacturer specifications and local requirements without shortcuts or guesswork.

Generator Repair and Maintenance Services

Service That Keeps Your System Ready

A generator that doesn’t start during an outage is just expensive lawn decoration. Regular maintenance keeps your system reliable when you actually need it. We provide annual maintenance that includes oil and filter changes, battery testing and replacement, spark plug inspection, coolant level checks, fuel system inspection, transfer switch testing, and full system load testing. These services catch small issues before they become failures during storms. If your generator needs repair, we service all major brands regardless of who installed them. Common repairs include battery replacement, transfer switch issues, fuel system problems, and control board diagnostics. We keep fully stocked trucks, so most repairs happen on the first visit without waiting for parts orders.
