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!

    We had a decision to make in continuing with costly repairs to a Lenox (lemon) system or purchase a new HVAC system. Blanton's who handles our scheduled maintenance provided us with options of how to proceed. We met with Kevin Melendez who informed us of our options and we purchased a new HVAC system. Kevin's knowledge and experience with HVAC systems provided us and helped us make the right choice for our house and needs without ever pressuring us. Aiden Hillard and Travis showed up and explained the whole process of removing the Lenox (lemon) system and installing the new system. Professionalism and courtesy are just a few adjectives that describes the expert service Aiden and Travis used to install the HVAC system. We are more than happy with the new system and look forward to maintaining our relationship with Blanton's Air, Plumbing & Electric.

    Recommend for military or anyone out of the area. Had a bunch of issues with electrical around my house and called to get it fixed. A very professional electrician arrived by the name of Donavan. This guy was on point and performed all the work very efficiently, and I was very impressed with his work. I highly recommend going with this company, it was an honest handshake.

    The heat on our downstairs gas furnace went out when temps were in the 20s and 30s overnight. We've been WOW Service Plan members for years and Blanton sent Chase Westmoreland out within a couple hours after we called. He quickly diagnosed the blower motor being the problem. Unfortunately, as it was on a Friday, they couldn't get the part until the following week. Fortunately we had a space heater and gas fire place to keep the downstairs somewhat tolerable. Chase followed up the next week and personally drove to the warehouse to get the part and replaced it with his helper. He's a great technician and one of the best we've worked with from Blanton's over the years.

    Devon and Dustin were our plumbers/technicians they did such an outstanding job putting all new shut off values on everything in our home, we had them installed a tankless waterheater and they redid all the waterlines and brought everything up to code, fixed cracked and leaking pipes. They spent two days redoing the plumbing in our home, I was totally amazed by their work ethic and professionalism. I would highly recommend Blatons for any plumbing, electrical and HVac, ask for Devon or Dustin they are outstanding. Fantastic job.
