Standby Generator Repair

Standby generator repair covers permanently installed home and business backup generators that fail to start automatically, run rough, or trip on fault codes. Since these units are relied on specifically during power outages, a fast diagnosis matters when a storm has already knocked out utility power.

Keep in mind: Repair fixes a unit that's already installed and malfunctioning -- if you don't have a standby generator yet and are deciding whether to get one, that's a generator installation request, not a repair.

Why didn't my standby generator start during a power outage?

Common causes include a dead or weak battery, a fault code that halted the automatic-start sequence, a fuel supply issue, or a transfer switch that failed to engage. A technician can pull the fault history to identify the specific cause.

Can regular maintenance prevent a no-start during an outage?

Scheduled oil, filter, and battery checks catch many of the issues that cause a no-start before an outage happens, which is why maintenance contracts are common for standby units that are relied on during storms.

Portable Generator Repair

Portable generator repair addresses carburetor, starter, and engine issues common in gas and propane portable units used for home backup power or job site equipment. Regular use and long idle periods between storms both contribute to common failure patterns in these units.

Generator Maintenance Contracts

Maintenance contracts schedule regular oil changes, filter service, and battery/transfer-switch checks on a standby generator, aimed at catching issues before the unit is needed during an actual outage rather than discovering a problem when the power goes out.
