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!

    I have had several Repair people from Blanton’s here over the last week or so. Terry Schweiger, Tye Green, and Pedro Hernandez. they still have more projects as well that I have them booked for! All three have been a joy to work with. God bless Pedro Hernandez. He made sure we got our downstairs HVAC running Saturday morning before the storm was scheduled to hit.

    When my air conditioner failed, I wasn't sure who to call, but I kept seeing Blanton's company vehicles all over town. I decided to give them a call to set up a time for an estimate, and they responded quickly. I just want to say a big thank you to Joseph Ford, Kyle Snyder, and Quentin McClain for their superb work with Blanton's. Their professionalism and expertise truly made a difference! ***update*** Pedro came out in the blistering cold today to replace a part. 01/24/26. Note that on my Goodman unit however I have had to change the contact plate about 3 times at the cost of about $500.00. Ants will get into the contact plate and short the contact plate. But today my part was $291.00. That part would draw current and made all the lights in my home dim at 45 second intervals. I had to call Farmers Electrical contractors out to confirm it wasnt my fuse boxes or any other electrical problems before hand. Once it was confirmed that the components in the AC was the problem... Blantons sent Pedro to resolve my problem. Pedro was very knowledgeable and based on the situation he began his trouble shooting. Problem solved. No more dimming lights. Also you all will want to get a service warranty. Just because your unit is brand new... its like it come with no warranty. $20k and no warranty? Ridiculous. But hey... blantons has been good to me and comes out immediately. I must say I do like Blantons and its staff.

    A month ago Parker came over and provided deluxe service. There was more work than initially expected that ended up getting done and he ended up at our house all day. He was super polite and patient with us talking his ear off while he was working. Blanton's is the best and we will be using them for all of our electric needs from now on. Great job, Parker! EDIT: It's January 2026 now. I needed an entire new sewer and water lines and it was 6K over my budget. Blantons helped me out by covering the electrical work I also needed so at least the bill wouldn't go any higher. Austin and Nick came by to do all the plumbing. Freddy came to do the electrical work. All 3 of them no surprise were amazing humans that I would request again. So much love to Blantons. I am a lifelong customer that will call them for all my plumbing electric and HVAC needs. I can't say enough how friendly everyone was.

    Matthew D. Was wonderful doing my plumbing inspection, insulating my water heater, and replacing a part on one of my toilets. He was thorough, professional, and answers all my questions. Great service, as always with Blantons! Chris O. Did a fantastic job with my HVAC winterization. He was prompt, professional, and was able to set my thermostat to auto - something I couldn’t figure out!
