Nationwide coverage

Portable generators sit unused for months and then are expected to start on the first pull. The usual culprit is fuel that has gone stale in the tank and carburetor, but there are several other causes.

  • Stale fuel and a gummed-up carburetor
  • A worn spark plug or a dirty air filter
  • Low oil, which can trigger an automatic shutdown
  • A faulty recoil starter or, on electric-start models, a weak battery
  • A tripped breaker, a damaged outlet or a failed voltage regulator when the engine runs but there is no power
  • Surging or stalling under load

Repair means cleaning or replacing what has failed and then testing the generator with a load. Describe what is happening when you call, and we will connect you with a local provider.

Portable Generator Repair FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Portable Generator Repair

Questions we hear most often about Portable Generator Repair in Bishop, VA.

Talk to a real person
Why won't my home generator start?
The most common causes are a weak or dead battery, stale fuel or a clogged fuel filter, a dirty air filter, a worn spark plug, low oil, or a control board fault. Check whether the generator shows an error code, and note whether it clicks, cranks or does nothing. Those details point to the cause.
What does an automatic transfer switch do?
It moves your home from utility power to the generator when the power goes out, and back again when it returns. It also prevents the generator from feeding power back into the grid, which protects utility workers.
Why does my generator run but the house has no power?
The usual causes are a failed transfer switch, a tripped breaker, a damaged outlet or a failed voltage regulator. Because it involves your electrical system, it should be checked by a qualified person.
Is it safe to repair a generator myself?
Basic checks like the oil level, battery and fuel are reasonable. Fuel systems, the transfer switch and anything connected to your home's wiring involve fire, shock and carbon monoxide risks, so they are best left to a qualified provider.
How much does generator repair cost?
It depends on the generator, the fault and the parts. A battery replacement is a different job from a fuel system or transfer switch repair. Call and describe the problem, and ask for an estimate.
