Annual generator service
Don’t discover a problem during an outage.
Standby generators sit outside through heat, cold, rain, debris, and long periods without a utility outage. Regular inspection and testing help uncover issues while there is still time to repair them.

Generator questions
Before the next outage.
For faster scheduling, share the generator brand, model, age if known, and any displayed fault code.
How often should my standby generator be serviced?+
Yearly service is a practical baseline for many standby systems. Usage, manufacturer requirements, operating conditions, and service history may call for a different schedule.
Can you service a generator that came with my house?+
Yes. We can inspect an existing system, identify the equipment, review its condition, test operation, and explain recommended maintenance or repairs.
Which generator brands do you work on?+
Buckeye Electric services and repairs major brands including Generac, Kohler, and Bryant, along with many other residential and commercial systems.
Do you repair transfer switches?+
Yes. We install, diagnose, repair, replace, and test both new and existing transfer-switch equipment.

Yes. Buckeye Electric handles backup-power work from small residential equipment through larger commercial and industrial installations, depending on project scope.
