What to put in your generator quote request
The more you tell us, the more useful the first call is:
- Your town and the property type: home, business, or farm or camp
- What you need: a new standby generator, a transfer switch, maintenance or repair
- Fuel: natural gas, propane, or not sure
- Home size and what you want powered, whole house or just essentials
- A preferred date, if you have one
Use the notes for anything that changes sizing: a well pump, sump pump, central air, an older panel, or a gas meter on the far side of the house. Not sure how big to go? Read what size generator you need first.
After your generator installation quote request
A local installer calls to set up a site visit. They look at your panel, gas meter and placement options, run a load calculation to size the generator, and send a written quote covering the unit, transfer switch, gas line, pad, permit and inspection. Our generator cost guide explains what moves the number. Outside the Capital District core? Check the towns we cover.
