Power outages are more than just an inconvenience; they can disrupt your life, compromise your home’s safety, and lead to costly damages. From summer storms to winter blizzards, a reliable home generator is the ultimate solution for ensuring your family’s comfort and security. At Jones Services, we provide complete backup power solutions, giving you the peace of mind that your lights, heat, A/C, and essential appliances will always stay on.
For homeowners throughout our New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania service areas, Jones Services is the trusted name for professional generator services. Our certified electricians have the expertise to help you select, install, and maintain the perfect generator for your home’s specific needs. We are committed to providing seamless, safe, and reliable power solutions that integrate perfectly with your existing electrical system, ensuring you’re prepared for whatever the weather brings.
Power You Can Depend On
Professional Home Generator Installation
Investing in a whole-home generator is a significant step towards securing your home’s comfort and safety. The team at Jones Services makes the installation process straightforward and stress-free. We begin with a thorough consultation to assess your property’s power requirements, helping you choose the right size and type of generator—including trusted brands like Generac—to meet your needs and budget.
Our licensed electricians handle every aspect of the installation with precision and care, from preparing the installation site and making all necessary electrical connections to installing the automatic transfer switch. This critical component ensures your generator kicks in automatically the moment an outage is detected, so you don’t have to lift a finger. We ensure your new system is fully compliant with all local codes and safety standards for reliable, long-term performance.
The Right Fit For Your Home
Seamless Integration and Automatic Operation
Choosing the correct generator is crucial. An undersized unit can’t power your essentials, while an oversized one is inefficient. Our experts perform detailed load calculations to ensure your generator can handle everything you need it to, from the refrigerator and sump pump to your home office and A/C system. We’ll explain the options and help you make an informed decision.
Modern standby generators are designed for ultimate convenience. The automatic transfer switch (ATS) is the brain of the system, constantly monitoring utility power. When it senses a disruption, it automatically disconnects your home from the grid and starts the generator, restoring power in seconds. When utility power returns, the ATS safely switches back and shuts down the generator. This seamless transition means you’re protected 24/7, whether you’re home or away.

The experienced technicians at Jones Services are equipped to handle all types of generator repairs. Whether your system fails to start, is running rough, or isn’t producing power, we have the tools and expertise to identify the root cause and implement an effective solution.
We understand that a failing generator compromises your home’s backup power plan. That’s why we prioritize emergency repair calls to restore your system’s functionality as soon as possible. We service all major brands and models, addressing common issues like battery failure, fuel system clogs, faulty transfer switches, and electrical problems. Trust us to get your first line of defense against power outages back in peak condition.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Why Won't My Generator Start?
Several common issues can prevent a generator from operating correctly. The most frequent culprits are a dead battery, low fuel levels, or an overloaded circuit. Over time, fuel lines can become clogged, and electrical components can wear out. Our technicians perform a comprehensive diagnostic check to pinpoint the exact issue, saving you time and preventing further damage.
Don’t wait for an emergency to discover a problem. If you notice your generator struggling during its weekly self-test, see a warning light, or suspect an issue, schedule a professional inspection. Proactively addressing minor issues is the best way to ensure your generator will be ready to perform when you need it most. Our team provides clear explanations and upfront repair options to get your system running reliably again.
Protect Your Investment
Proactive Generator Maintenance
Like any major home appliance, your generator requires regular maintenance to ensure it operates reliably and efficiently for years to come. At Jones Services, we offer comprehensive maintenance plans designed to keep your system in optimal condition. Proactive service is the key to preventing unexpected failures during a critical power outage.
Our multi-point maintenance inspection includes a thorough examination of all mechanical and electrical components. We change the oil and filters, inspect spark plugs and battery health, test the transfer switch, check fuel lines, and verify output voltage. Regular tune-ups not only ensure reliability but also extend the lifespan of your generator, protecting your valuable investment and guaranteeing your peace of mind.
The Importance of Regular Service
Why Annual Maintenance is Crucial
Your generator sits idle most of the time, but it needs to start without fail in an instant. Over time, oil can degrade, batteries can lose their charge, and pests can build nests that obstruct airflow. An annual maintenance visit from our certified technicians addresses these potential problems before they can cause a system failure.
Regularly scheduled maintenance is often required to keep your manufacturer’s warranty valid. Our detailed service helps you meet these requirements while providing a complete health report for your system. By identifying and correcting minor wear and tear, we help you avoid more costly repairs down the road and ensure your generator is always ready to power your home through the next outage.

The moment utility power fails, your generator automatically takes over, restoring power to your entire home within seconds. This seamless transition means your daily life continues without interruption.
This isn’t just about convenience; it’s about security. With a standby generator, your sump pump keeps running, protecting your basement from flooding. Your security system remains active, safeguarding your property. Your family stays warm in the winter and cool in the summer, and critical medical equipment continues to operate without a hitch. This constant protection provides an invaluable sense of security.
Knowing your home is always protected, whether you are there or away, is the greatest benefit of a professionally installed generator. You no longer have to worry about the contents of your freezer spoiling, your pipes freezing, or being left in the dark during a storm. With a reliable backup power system, you can rest easy knowing your family and home are safe.
A Smart Home Investment
Protecting Your Property and Its Value
A professionally installed standby generator is more than a convenience—it’s a powerful tool for protecting your property from the costly consequences of a power outage. Events like frozen pipes bursting or basement flooding from a failed sump pump can lead to thousands of dollars in damage. A generator is your 24/7 insurance policy against these preventable disasters.
Beyond protection, a whole-home generator is an attractive feature for potential home buyers. In areas prone to power outages, having a reliable backup power source is a significant selling point that can increase your home’s market value. It demonstrates that the property is well-maintained and prepared for emergencies, offering a competitive edge.
Ultimately, the investment in a generator pays dividends in both protection and value. It safeguards your home’s infrastructure, prevents expensive repairs, and adds a premium feature that enhances its appeal. It’s a smart upgrade that provides practical benefits now and a tangible return in the future.

Your Questions, Answered
Frequently Asked Questions About Home Generators
Have questions about home generators? We have answers. Here are some of the most common inquiries we receive from homeowners. If you don’t see your question here, feel free to reach out to our knowledgeable team for more information.
How does a standby generator work?
A standby generator is permanently installed outside your home and connected to its electrical system and fuel source (natural gas or propane). It works with an automatic transfer switch that constantly monitors power from the utility. When it detects an outage, it automatically starts the generator and switches your home’s power source to it. When utility power is restored, it switches back and shuts the generator off.
What size generator do I need for my house?
The right size depends on what you want to power. A smaller generator might cover essentials like the furnace, refrigerator, sump pump, and a few lights. A larger, whole-home generator can power everything in your house at once, including A/C units. Our experts perform a detailed load calculation to recommend the perfect size for your needs.
How often does my generator need maintenance?
We recommend professional maintenance at least once a year to ensure your generator is ready for an emergency. Regular service, much like a car’s oil change, helps catch small issues before they become major problems, extends the unit’s lifespan, and is often required to keep your warranty valid.
Can I install a generator myself?
Generator installation is a complex job that involves high-voltage electrical wiring and connections to a fuel source. For safety and performance reasons, it should only be performed by a licensed and insured electrician. A professional ensures the system is installed correctly and complies with all local codes.
What is an automatic transfer switch (ATS)?
The ATS is the ‘brain’ of your generator system. It’s an intelligent device that makes the system fully automatic. It senses when you lose power, tells the generator to start, and transfers the electrical load to the generator. You don’t have to do anything.
