Real Generator Work in Mequon Homes

Whole-Home Generator Installation in Mequon

Linda C. had experienced power outages over the years and needed a reliable backup power source to keep her home running and her sump pumps working during storms. We replaced her original 100-amp panel with a new 200-amp main breaker panel, installed a transfer switch, and connected a new Generac standby generator on the exterior of the home with proper gas line hookup and gravel base to keep it elevated from water runoff.

Generator Tune-Up in Mequon

Jim C. called to have his Generac generator serviced and tuned up. We replaced the oil, oil filter, air filter, and spark plugs, cleaned the inside of the unit, and wiped down the exterior panels. The generator was left in good working order.

Austin Plumbing, electrical, etc installed a backup house generator and two sump pumps and did a fantastic job. The team of Garret L, Michael R, Noah J worked hard and efficiently to get the job done. They all were very professional, addressed all our questions, gave us an overview of the generator and maintenance requirements. They made sure we were completely satisfied before they left. I would highly recommend Austin and this team for plumbing and electrical and generator installation.

Common Questions Mequon Homeowners Have About Generators

Who installs and services home generators in Mequon?
Austin installs and services standby generators across Mequon — trucks here daily — and because they’re a licensed electrical contractor too, the generator and the wiring come from one company, done right and to code. You get honest sizing rather than a push to the biggest unit, upfront pricing, non-commissioned advice, and work backed in writing.
How do I know what size generator I need?
It depends on what you want running in an outage — essentials like the furnace, fridge, well pump, and sump pump, or whole-house comfort. In well-fed Mequon homes, keeping the well pump and sump running is often the whole point, and larger homes want more capacity. Austin checks your home’s real electrical load and recommends the right size rather than overselling.
What’s involved in installing a standby generator?
Austin handles it end to end: sizing, placement, the automatic transfer switch, gas hookup coordination, and code-compliant electrical — then tests it so it actually starts when the grid drops. With the electrical in-house, you’re not refereeing between an electrician and a generator company.
What does a home generator cost in Mequon?
Priced upfront and approved before any work — and since cost swings widely by size and complexity, that honest quote matters. Non-commissioned techs mean the recommendation fits your home, not a sales goal.
Is backup power worth it in Mequon?
For a lot of larger, well-fed Mequon homes, it’s a serious yes — lose power and the home loses water, heat, and its sump pump all at once, often in the exact storm threatening a finished lower level. Austin gives you a straight assessment of whether it pays off for your setup, with no pressure either way.
