Most Common Generator Problems
Generators can fail because of weak batteries, clogged filters, fuel trouble, or damaged wiring. A generator failing to start or giving low power can leave a home without backup power. Regular checks and planned generator maintenance help catch these problems early.

The job was to replace a kitchen light fixture and the switches—nothing major, but the electrician who came out was actually both co-owner, which really stood out to me. They were incredibly thorough, took the time to explain everything clearly, and made sure to clean up every few minutes as he worked.
