What Charleston Customers Say
"Our Generac wouldn't transfer during a tropical storm. EmergenServe had an emergency generator tech onsite in Charleston at 2am. Fixed the ATS, we never lost power."

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer 24/7 emergency generator service in Charleston SC?
Yes. Our emergency generator line is answered 24/7, 365 days a year by a licensed electrician serving Charleston and the rest of Charleston County, especially during named-storm and hurricane events.
What generator brands do you service?
Generac, Kohler, Briggs & Stratton, Cummins, Champion and most other major residential and light-commercial standby brands. We carry common parts on the truck.
How much does emergency generator repair cost in Charleston?
Most diagnostic calls run $189 flat, with the diagnostic fee credited toward any repair. Common ATS and battery repairs run $400-$1,200. We give a written quote before we start.
How often should a Charleston standby generator be serviced?
Annually at minimum, plus a pre-hurricane-season check every spring. Coastal Lowcountry salt air and humidity are hard on generators, skipping service is the #1 reason units fail during a storm.
Can you install a new standby generator before hurricane season in Charleston?
Yes. We book up fast May through July. Call by April to guarantee a pre-season install. Financing available so you can install now and pay over time.
