Delivering Trusted Service Since 1951

Generator Services in Raleigh-Durham & Fayetteville, NC

Storms can cause much damage in Fayetteville and the Triangle between high winds and flooding. With our power grid under strain, we’re more susceptible to power outages than ever, so homeowners need to consider options for keeping the lights on when the power goes out.

One option is the whole-home generator, and Blanton’s is here to provide the generator services you need to handle outages without interruption.

Call us in Fayetteville or the Triangle to request trustworthy generator service today.

Expert Generator Installation

A whole-house generator is a fixed unit that can run your whole home during a power outage. Manual options require you to flip a switch to start the generator, but others can turn on automatically when they sense power has gone out.

When you install a whole-home generator, you’ll work with a certified electrician to determine the correct size system to keep your home going for the desired time after a power outage. Depending on home size and energy consumption, you can power your home with a propane tank. With a natural gas line, you have even greater peace of mind.

Benefits of Installing a Whole-Home Generator

Why are Raleigh-Durham residents choosing to incorporate whole-home generators? The benefits are significant.

  • Reliability: A generator means you don’t need to stress about losing power when sheltering through a storm or other weather event.
  • Value: As demand for generators rises, you can typically ask more for your home if it already has a quality generator installed.
  • Functionality: Compared with a smaller portable generator, a whole-home system powers much more than any other option can.

Standby Generators vs. Whole-Home Generators

Standby generators can only power essential systems in your home. Just like whole-home generators, standby options are also permanently installed outside your home, but they can provide less power. While a standby generator can’t power everything, they are great options when you only need to run your HVAC, refrigerator, sump pump, and other critical systems. Our expert team of electricians can help you determine which option and model is best for you and your home based on your needs and budget.

6 Signs You May Need Generator Replacement

Is your generator showing signs of excessive wear or malfunction? It may be time to replace your old generator with a new one!

Here are six signs that you may need to schedule a generator replacement:

  • No Longer Supported: If your generator is old enough that it is no longer supported by the original equipment manufacturer, it’s time to get a replacement.
  • Expensive or Frequent Repairs: If your generator has broken down more than once recently or the cost of a repair would exceed 50% of the cost of a replacement, it’s time for a new generator.
  • Not Enough Power: If your generator is no longer capable of running all the needed electrical appliances in your home, you need a newer and more powerful generator.
  • Difficulty starting: If your generator has trouble starting or doesn’t start at all, it may signal that it is at the end of its life.
  • Excessive fuel consumption: Generators that start using more fuel than normal may have major issues that call for a replacement.
  • Frequent stalling or shutdowns: If your generator often stops or shuts down unexpectedly, it could be because of fuel problems, overheating, or electrical faults that require a replacement

    Why You’ll Love Us!

    Our hot water heater leaked and failed. Called Blantons and had a plumber out in about an hour, 7:20 am. Looked at the issue, gave us a price and immediately started work. Someone from Blantons delivered a new hot water heater and we’re done by 1:30 with new drain. Updated wiring, and everything cleaned up. Friendly, courteous, fast and professional.

    I had a new HVAC installed, and while I can't say the price of an HVAC makes me happy, I can say I trust their work and I know the service was top notch. They make sure you are well informed, have pictures and videos before and after of everything, very personable and knowledgeable, and above all, they never upsell. I also appreciate that everyone tends to do a little extra just to ensure service, or sometimes even a lot extra. Thomas and Roman did a great job, and I mean it when I say this is the only company I trust around here. I have been screwed many times by the companies contacted by my home warranty, but these guys always come through. I am a happy return customer. Had a small issue today and had it fixed within hours of calling. Spencer was very friendly and knowledgeable, reassured my confidence in Blanton's for sure. Update because Avery came out and did a great job. Always appreciate the good work! Update to give a shoutout to Chris, very helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. Quick in and out with a quick resolution (it's hot this year!). Update: Terry came out and helped us with a surprise issue during the regular inspection. Timing was lucky, and he was very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Love this company! Update to give a shoutout to Devon. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful!

    Chase Westmoreland worked in 93° weather, maintaining a smile with his expertise, to get my HVAC up and running again. He told me what was occurring every step of the way, and kept his cool regardless of the tight space under the house. Great work from a great employee!
