What You Get
What’s Included in Every Sandiparks Generator Job
Proper portable and standby generator installation is about far more than
dropping a unit beside your house. Here’s what’s included in every
generator job we complete, with no surprises at the end.
Load Assessment & Sizing
We calculate exactly how much power your home needs, so your generator is sized correctly. An undersized unit won’t keep up, and an oversized one wastes money. We get it right.
Transfer Switch Installation
A proper transfer switch is the heart of a safe generator setup. It isolates your home from the grid during an outage, preventing dangerous backfeeding that can injure utility workers.
Correct Circuit & Wiring
We install the correct wiring, breaker, and connections for your specific generator, whether it’s a standby unit or a portable setup with a manual transfer switch.
Code-Compliant Installation
Every installation meets current Ontario Electrical Safety Code standards and is completed by a licensed electrician, so your home stays compliant and your setup is genuinely safe.
ESA Permit & Inspection
Generator installations in Ontario require an ESA permit. We handle the application, coordinate the inspection, and verify that the installation is safe before it goes into service.
Reliable residential generator installation covers every safety detail from sizing to the transfer switch. Every job we complete includes the full scope outlined above as standard and is clearly priced in your written quote.

The safety risks involved make it important to hire an experienced team for your home generator installation. If a generator is not installed properly, it can backfeed electricity into the grid, causing serious injury to utility workers. Our Master Electrician, Ryan, has the qualifications and experience to do it right.
As a trusted generator installer, we work with leading generator brands and help you choose the right unit for your home before you buy. Whether you want whole-home coverage or backup for just the essentials, we size and install a system that fits your needs and budget.
Our generator installation services cover every stage of the process, from the initial load assessment through the transfer switch, permit, installation, testing, and inspection. You work with a single licensed team from start to finish, with a single point of accountability for the entire project.
Beyond the technical work, we manage the permit and inspection process entirely. Many homeowners don’t realize that a generator installation requires an ESA permit, but skipping it can void insurance and create serious safety risks. We handle everything so your installation is fully compliant.

TESTIMONIALS
What Our Clients Say
FAQs
How much does home generator installation cost?
The cost varies based on the generator size, whether it is a standby or portable unit, the complexity of the transfer switch, and any required electrical upgrades. A larger unit that powers your entire home is more expensive than a smaller unit that only powers essentials. We give a clear written quote following an on-site assessment.
Do I need a permit to install a generator in Ontario?
Yes. Generator installations must be permitted and inspected by ESA. This ensures you remain compliant, your insurance is covered, and the work is safe and properly documented. The permit and inspection process is included in all quotes.
What size generator do I need for my home?
This depends on what you want to power during an outage. Some homeowners want whole-home coverage, while others need coverage only for the furnace, fridge, and a few circuits. We accurately determine your load and recommend the appropriate size so you don’t pay too much or too little.
What is a transfer switch and why is it required?
A transfer switch safely isolates your home from the utility grid when the generator is running. Without it, power may refeed into the grid, severely harming utility personnel. It is an important safety feature and a code requirement, so we include one on every job.
Can you install a generator I already purchased?
Yes. As a trusted generator installation company, we install units homeowners have already purchased and help those who haven’t yet chosen one. Either way, we confirm the unit suits your needs and install it safely and in compliance with code.
How long does a generator installation take?
Most standby generator installations are completed within a day or two, depending on the unit, the transfer switch configuration, and any required electrical work. We provide a clear time estimate in the written quote so you know what to expect before we start.
