Emergency Generator Service & Repair
Your generator failing during a power outage defeats its purpose. Our emergency service team responds fast to diagnose and repair Generac and all major generator brands.
Emergency Generator Service
A generator that fails when you need it most is worse than no generator at all — it creates false confidence. The most common reason generators fail during an outage is deferred maintenance: old oil, fouled spark plugs, a dead battery, or a carburetor clogged from sitting without use. These failures are preventable.
When your generator does fail during an active outage, we respond as quickly as possible. Our service technicians carry common Generac parts and diagnostic equipment to diagnose and repair most issues in a single visit. We service all Generac models as well as other major residential generator brands.
After the emergency is resolved, we'll discuss a maintenance plan to prevent the same situation from occurring again. Most generator failures during outages are avoidable with annual maintenance — and the cost of an annual service call is a fraction of the cost of an emergency repair.

Signs You May Need Emergency Generator Service
Common indicators our Hudson Valley customers recognize before they call us.
Your Generator Didn't Start During the Last Outage
A generator that fails when you actually need it is the worst outcome. This is almost always preventable with annual maintenance — and repairable with a service call.
Your Generator Is Showing Error Codes
Generac and other brands display fault codes on the control panel. If your generator is showing a code or alarm, it needs diagnosis before the next outage occurs.
Your Generator Hasn't Run in Over a Year
Gasoline and oil degrade, batteries discharge, and internal components corrode when generators sit unused. A service call before the next storm season is essential.
Your Generator Runs But Then Shuts Off
A generator that starts and then shuts down under load has a fuel delivery issue, a low oil pressure fault, or a governor problem. All are diagnosable and repairable.
You Hear Unusual Noises When It Runs
Knocking, rattling, or rough running during the weekly self-test are signs of mechanical issues developing. Catching them early prevents a larger failure during an actual outage.
It's Been More Than a Year Since Service
Annual maintenance is required to maintain your generator's warranty and ensure reliability. Oil, filters, spark plugs, and the battery all have scheduled service intervals.
