Whatever Brought You Here, the Real Question Is the Same

Homeowners land on this page for a lot of different reasons — a generator that came with the house, a warranty question, a storm in the forecast, or just a nagging feeling that it’s been a while since anyone checked it. Different starting points, same underlying question: would this generator actually start and carry a full load the next time the power goes out?

Most homeowners can’t answer that with confidence, and that’s not a knock on you — it’s the nature of the equipment. A generator sits quietly for months at a time, runs a brief self-test you probably don’t watch closely, and gives you no real signal about its condition until the moment it’s actually asked to perform. The only way to know for sure is to check.

Let's Get Started

What Brought You Here?

Inherited a Generator?

Bought a home with a generator already installed and have no idea about its service history? Start here.

Worried About Your Warranty?

Missed maintenance is one of the most common reasons a manufacturer denies a warranty claim. Here's how to protect yours.

Storm Season Coming?

Michigan's outages cluster around specific seasons. Here's what "ready" actually means before one hits.

The One Question Worth Answering First:

Before anything else — a warranty conversation, a maintenance plan, a repair quote — the most useful thing any homeowner can do is find out where their generator actually stands right now. That's the entire purpose of the Generator Readiness Check: six quick questions, no technical knowledge required, and a clear answer in about two minutes. It works regardless of the generator's brand, its age, or who installed it.

Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers

I don't know anything about my generator — where do I even start?

Start with the Generator Readiness Check. It’s built for exactly this situation — you don’t need to know your generator’s service history or technical condition going in; the questions are designed to work even if your honest answer is “not sure.”

Either is a reasonable starting point. The Readiness Check will point you toward the right next step based on your specific answers, whether that’s a one-time inspection or an ongoing plan.

You’ll get a clear, written recommendation and a separate quote before anything is scheduled — nothing about taking the Readiness Check or requesting an inspection commits you to a repair.

No. Most of our residential maintenance customers had their generator installed by someone else, or inherited it with the home. We service all major brands regardless of installation history.
