One crew, start to finish

What generator installation costs in Point Lay
You get a flat price for the job before work starts, not an hourly meter. These are the things that actually move the number on a generator installation job in Point Lay.
Call (888) 633-7804 and describe what you have. We will give you a realistic range on the phone and a firm figure once we have looked.
| Scope of the work | A single dead outlet and a full service upgrade sit at opposite ends. The scope is the biggest driver of price, and we pin it down before quoting. |
|---|---|
| Materials and parts | Cold-rated and wet-rated components cost more than the cheapest option on the shelf, and here they are worth it. We tell you what we are using. |
| Travel and timing | Communities off the road system carry travel and freight costs. We are straight about that number up front rather than burying it in the invoice. |
| Access | A crawl space you can stand in and an attic you have to belly-crawl are different jobs with the same wiring. Finished walls and log construction take longer than open framing. |

Generator Installation in Point Lay - FAQ
What size generator do I need in Point Lay?
Start with what must stay on: heat, well pump, freezer, a few lights and a receptacle or two. We measure the real loads at your place in Point Lay and size from that. Oversizing wastes fuel, undersizing means the thing stalls on the first pump start.
Can I just run extension cords from a portable generator?
It is common and it is the setup we get called out to fix. Cords through a cracked window backfeed hazards, overload thin gauge and leave your heating system on the wrong side of the problem. An inlet box and transfer switch costs less than most people expect.
What is a transfer switch and do I need one?
It is the piece that makes sure generator power and utility power can never meet. Without it you risk backfeeding the line, which is dangerous for you and for utility crews. Yes, you need one.
Do you service generators you did not install?
Yes. If a unit in Point Lay is not starting, not transferring or tripping under load, call (888) 633-7804.
How often should a standby unit be tested?
Let it exercise weekly and give it a real load test before freeze-up. We can do that check when we are through Point Lay.
