Backup power for what cannot wait
When utility power drops, the refrigerator stops cooling. Lights go out. The house can become uncomfortable fast. We help you decide what should stay powered.
A longer outage can put refrigerated food at risk and make the house uncomfortable fast. Lights and outlets disappear too. We start with those immediate needs, then account for equipment that cannot be left off until utility power returns.
Without electricity, a well pump may stop delivering water. Wi-Fi may go down. A garage door opener will not work. If anyone in the home relies on powered medical equipment, tell us early so we can discuss its electrical needs.
Some households want whole-home backup. Others prefer essential circuits for the refrigerator, lights, Wi-Fi, and a few important systems. We help you decide what you want running at the same time.
Older homes and newer builds can have very different electrical layouts. A generator that is too small may leave out something important. A generator that is too large can add cost without giving your household much more value. We look at what you expect to run together.
STANDBY POWER + COMPLETE PROJECT SUPPORT
Older Campobello homes and newer builds can differ. We match backup power to your electrical setup, fuel options at the address, and the coverage you want.
Generator Brands We Install, Service & Repair
The RightFirst Standard
At Dave’s, one capable team handles the electrical work, fuel connection, placement, startup testing, and follow-through. You do not have to sort out who should answer a question.
We handle the electrical work and fuel connection as part of the same installation. That helps the generator and home equipment work together as intended. You can call us instead of trying to track down separate contractors.
Generator placement affects safety, access, and how the yard looks. We choose a spot that follows equipment instructions and clearance rules. Even with room around a Campobello home, not every open spot leaves enough space for service.
The installation does not end when the equipment is set. We make sure you know what normal operation looks like, how to reach us, and what maintenance protects the system after we leave.








More ways Dave can help
We also provide AC, water heater, drain and sewer, and electrical services that keep your home comfortable and working.
AC repair for warm air, frozen coils, short cycling, and weak airflow.
Water heater repair and installation for no hot water, leaking tanks, and replacement planning.
Drain cleaning and sewer service for slow drains, backups, and sewer-line trouble.
Electrical repair and troubleshooting for tripping breakers, flickering lights, and dead circuits.
Generator Questions
We start by listing the systems you want available during an outage. We account for normal running demand and the added demand some equipment needs when it starts. This gives us a practical generator size without assuming every appliance will run at once.
Whole-home backup can keep more of the house powered. Selected-load backup focuses on the systems you choose, such as refrigeration, lighting, Wi-Fi, a well pump, or comfort equipment. We help you compare both options based on what matters most at home.
An automatic transfer switch moves your home from utility power to generator power during an outage. It isolates the generator from the utility supply while it is running. When utility power returns, it transfers the home back.
Fuel choices can include propane or natural gas where service is confirmed. We verify fuel availability at your address rather than assuming a town-level utility listing applies to your home.
The generator location must follow manufacturer instructions and applicable clearance rules. We check service access and the surrounding home equipment so the unit has room to operate and be maintained.
Permanent standby generator work may require permits and inspections. A Campobello mailing address may be outside town limits, so we verify the governing jurisdiction and the steps that apply before work begins.
After installation, we test generator startup and transfer switch operation. We then show you what normal operation looks like and discuss the manufacturer-recommended exercise and maintenance schedule.
Yes. We maintain and repair standby generator systems. When a system needs attention, we check the reported problem, explain what failed, and outline the work needed to restore dependable operation.
