Your Local Standby Generator Crew — Install, Repair & Maintain.
We’re a full-service standby generator company serving Henderson County and the surrounding mountain communities. A new whole-house generator, a unit that won’t start when the power drops, an automatic transfer switch, a maintenance plan, or replacing a tired old generator — we handle it all, and we come to your property to do it.
Out here the power goes out — ice storms, summer thunderstorms, and trees on rural lines knock it down several times a year — and many homes run on a well and septic pump, so an outage cuts your water and wastewater too. A properly sized standby generator on propane or natural gas brings the whole home back automatically, within seconds, whether you’re home or away. Tell us what you have or what you need, and we’ll give you a straight answer and a real price.

What We Do
From a new whole-house install to a unit that won’t start, here’s what we handle for Henderson County homeowners.
Standby Generator Services
We are a full-service standby generator company covering Henderson County and the surrounding mountains, from Hendersonville and Flat Rock out to the rural roads around Mills River, Etowah, and Edneyville. If it has to do with a home standby generator, we handle it: sizing and installing a new Generac or comparable unit, wiring in an automatic transfer switch, repairing a generator that will not start or runs but makes no power, keeping units on a maintenance plan so they actually work when the grid drops, and replacing tired old generators that are past their service life. Out here in the NC mountains the power goes out — ice storms, summer thunderstorms, and trees on lines knock it out several times a year — and a lot of homes sit on a well and septic, so when the power quits you lose water and your septic pump too. A properly installed standby generator on propane or natural gas brings the whole house back online automatically, within seconds, whether you are home or not. You call, you tell us what you have or what you need, and we give you a straight answer and a real price. No pressure, no scare tactics — just a crew that knows mountain backup power.
Standby Generator Installation
A standby generator is a permanent unit that sits outside your home, runs on propane or natural gas, and starts automatically the moment the power drops — no cords, no portable to drag out in an ice storm. Installing one right is more than setting a box on the ground. We size the generator to your home with a real load calculation, set it on a proper pad with the clearances the code and the manufacturer require, wire in an automatic transfer switch, coordinate the gas hookup, and commission the unit so it starts, transfers, and runs the way it should. We install Generac and comparable standby generators across Henderson County. Out here the install also has to account for mountain realities — well and septic pumps that need to stay on, propane as the usual fuel, and homes on rural feeders that lose power often. We do it once, do it to code, and leave you with a system that brings the whole house back automatically while you are asleep or away.
Whole-House Generator Installation
A whole-house generator backs up your entire home, not just a handful of circuits. When the power drops, the whole panel transfers to generator power: heat and air, the well and septic pumps, the water heater, the kitchen, the office, and every outlet — automatically, within seconds. For Henderson County homes that lose power to ice and storms several times a year, and that depend on a well and septic pump for water, a whole-house unit is the difference between an outage you barely notice and one that empties your fridge and leaves you hauling water. We size, install, and commission whole-house standby generators across Henderson County, on propane or natural gas. We do a full load calculation so the unit can actually carry the entire home, wire in a service-rated automatic transfer switch, and set it all up to code so it runs the way it should when a tree takes down the line at two in the morning.
Generator Repair
A standby generator only earns its keep if it works the moment you need it — and the worst time to find out it does not is during an outage. We diagnose and repair home standby generators across Henderson County: units that crank but will not start, units that start but produce no power, units stuck on an error code, hard-starting engines, dead batteries, failed transfer switches, and generators that have quietly stopped running their weekly self-test. We work on Generac and comparable brands. A real repair starts with a real diagnosis — we read the controller, check the fuel and gas pressure, test the battery and charger, inspect the transfer switch, and find the actual fault instead of throwing parts at it. Then we fix it and prove it under load. Out here, where an outage can mean no water and no heat, a generator that does not start is not a someday problem, so we get you back to a unit you can count on.
Generator Maintenance & Service Plans
A standby generator spends almost all of its life sitting idle, and that is exactly why it needs maintenance. Oil breaks down, batteries weaken, filters clog, and small fuel or connection problems go unnoticed for months — until an ice storm hits and the unit will not start. Routine maintenance is the single best thing you can do to make sure your generator actually runs when the power drops. We service home standby generators across Henderson County and offer service plans that keep yours on a schedule so you never have to remember it. A proper service covers an oil and filter change, a new air filter and spark plugs as needed, a battery test, a check of the fuel and gas connections, a controller and fault-log review, and a real load test to confirm the unit starts, transfers, and carries power. We work on Generac and comparable brands. Manufacturers also require regular maintenance to keep the warranty valid — so a service plan protects both your generator and your coverage.
Transfer Switch Installation
The automatic transfer switch is the part of a standby system that makes it automatic. It constantly watches your utility power, and the moment it drops, it signals the generator to start and safely switches your home from the grid to generator power — then switches back and shuts the generator down when utility power returns. Without a proper transfer switch, a generator cannot back up your home safely; it is the device that prevents dangerous backfeed onto the utility lines and protects line workers and your equipment. We install and replace automatic transfer switches across Henderson County, sized and wired to your panel and your generator. We install service-rated whole-house switches and essential-circuit (load-managed) switches, wire them to code, and commission the transfer so it happens cleanly within seconds. If you have a generator without an automatic switch, or an aging switch that is failing to transfer, this is the piece that makes the whole system trustworthy.
Generator Replacement
Standby generators do not last forever. After enough years and enough outages, parts get hard to find, repairs start to cost more than they are worth, and the unit you bought to protect your home becomes the thing you cannot trust. We handle full generator replacements across Henderson County: we assess your old unit, recommend a right-sized modern replacement, remove and dispose of the old generator, reuse or upgrade the pad and transfer switch as needed, connect the fuel and electrical, and commission the new unit so it starts, transfers, and runs the way it should. We replace Generac and comparable brands. A replacement is also the right moment to fix anything the original install got wrong — an undersized unit that always struggled with the well pump, a transfer switch that should have been whole-house, or a placement that violated clearances. We size and set the new system up properly so the next ten-plus years are dependable.
Emergency Generator Service
When the power is out — or about to be — a generator that will not run is an emergency, especially in the mountains where an outage can also mean no water from the well, no septic pump, and no heat in a cold snap. If your standby generator failed to start when the grid dropped, shut down mid-outage, is alarming, or you have a storm bearing down on a unit you are not sure about, that is what we treat as urgent. We provide emergency generator service across Henderson County. We come out, diagnose why the unit will not run — a dead battery, a fuel or gas-pressure problem, a controller fault, or a transfer switch that never handed over the load — and get your backup power online so your home is functional again. The first priority is getting you running; then we tell you straight what failed and what it takes to keep it from happening next time the lights go out.

Generator Won’t Start or a Storm Coming? Don’t Wait.
A standby generator only helps if it runs when you need it. A few situations mean you should call today instead of finding out in the dark.
It didn’t start when the power dropped
A standby unit that fails to start during an outage is an emergency — especially on a well-and-septic home with no water or heat. Usually it’s a dead battery, a fuel or gas-pressure issue, or a control fault. We diagnose it and get your backup power running.
It runs but the house stays dark
A generator that starts but won’t power the home usually points to the automatic transfer switch or the controls, not the engine. We test the switch, controls, and output to find the break in the chain and fix it.
A big storm is in the forecast
Ahead of an ice or wind storm, don’t gamble on a unit you’re not sure about. We test the battery, run a load test, and confirm the generator and transfer switch are ready — so you’re not finding out it failed after the lights are already off.
