Generator Services In South Carolina

Anyone who lives in a hurricane-prone area  knows that Mother Nature can quickly turn your world upside down. But when you have a backup generator, weather concerns become a little less worrisome, and life can get back to normal a bit quicker when the weather does take a turn.

For generator services in the Charleston and Greenville areas, trust our team at Preferred Home Services.

Never Be Without Power With a Generator

Whether it is loss of electricity due to the high winds of a hurricane or simply a fallen tree taking out a power line, losing power presents many problems for homeowners. From loss of refrigerated food to keeping your home at a comfortable temperature in the heat or cold, a backup generator provides more than electricity — it provides peace of mind. Simply put, today’s world requires electricity. It powers our devices, keeps us comfortable, and so much more.

Having a backup generator ensures that you never have to worry about any of these issues again. A backup generator even provides protection from hazardous voltage fluctuations and surges that can occur after power returns from an outage.

Backup Generator Installation

If you are considering installing a backup generator, it is vital that you contact a licensed professional to determine the right generator for your home, as well as to ensure that your selection is safely and properly installed. Preferred Home Services’ trained professionals can guide you through this important process.

Not only do you need to be certain you have chosen the generator that best suits your home’s energy needs, but you also need that system to be installed with care so that it works with your home’s existing power supply.

Once you have discussed your needs with our team, we will determine the best suggestion for your home, including a system that you can trust that will run for an extended period of time, if (and when) the situation demands it. The next step is our expert installation, including the electrical wiring, installs, and transfer switch, to get your home prepared for the next loss of power due to a hurricane or other incident.

Everyone has been remarkable to deal with. Technicians and scheduling staff has been absolutely wonderful! Would highly recommend to anyone! – Melanie S.

Stevan was awesome. I appreciate the consideration for my pets. My ac condenser is from 1986 so probably older than Stevan, but it didn’t deter his ability to problem solve and get us up and running again. Another company booked me a appt, then said they were overbooked and cancelled my appt the next day when I declined talking to the manager about financing a new unit and after waiting until 9pm and requesting an update on if a tech would still make it out.When I am able to replace the unit Stevan has convinced me Preferred is the company to go with.

What am amazing job Mr.Matt has done. Full of knowledge and explained the process of changing out water heater. It was done pretty quickly. He was super friendly and explained how to keep the maintenance of our water heater up to par. Would definitely recommend Matt for again. Went far and beyond because he saved me money on my lawn mower as well...😁😁😁

What matters most when air conditioning stops working in July is getting somebody to deal with it fast. I phoned Friday about 7:00 PM, and on Saturday a tech fixed my ancient HVAC system well enough so I could get by until they could install a complete new HVAC system. That was a miracle. The new system was working on Wednesday afternoon.

Chris Crawford did a great job with the instillation of
the new water heater. He was very professional in his attitude and work. He cleaned up after himself and left our garage better than he found it. He is a great asset to your company. We would be happy to have him back at any time we have another need.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Garrett for an HVAC issue, and I can’t recommend him highly enough! From start to finish, Garrett was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. He quickly diagnosed the problem with our system and explained everything in clear, understandable terms.

Garrett arrived on time and came fully prepared with all the necessary tools and parts. He worked diligently to ensure our system was up and running smoothly, and he even took the time to offer maintenance tips to prevent future issues. His attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction truly set him apart.

If you’re in need of a reliable HVAC technician, Garrett is definitely the person to call. Exceptional service and a great experience all around!

Updated Review November 2025:
I had my first semi annual check in. Will and Nick with the HVAC team were incredibly helpful, kind, and we just had a great experience with the team. Also, Victor with plumbing was also so positive and knowledgeable. Hailey and Lauren scheduling were amazing too. So pleased with this company and service

Updated review July 2026:
Had plumbing issues on Friday night. Was able to schedule after 8 PM for early on Saturday. Technician, Will Smith, was incredibly professional and fixed the problem so quickly I’m so thankful for this company and all of the staff members. Can’t say enough good things about this company and their field force

Technican was absolutely awesome he was there for 5 hours troubleshooting and had the ac running when he left. He was very nice and kept us informed every step of the way. Preferred honored the warranty and I realized why I chose them to put my system in 1 year ago. I highly recommend them and if Alex Coronel happens to be your technician you will be in good hands.

We had two pipes burst in a matter of two weeks and Mike L. came out immediately both times to save the day. He was truly a knight in shining armor and took great care of us during two really stressful moments. He was super knowledgeable, professional, and a pleasure to work with. He got us on the schedule immediately for a full home repipe. Ben’s squad showed up a day later and got to work! Chris H., Bryan T., Garrett D., Porter B., Mac C., and Travis S. were absolute rockstars. They worked together like a well oiled machine. They were professional, meticulous, neat, polite, friendly, and perfectionists. You want these guys working on your house. We’ve had a lot of contractors do work for us over the years and these guys are by far the best we’ve ever seen across all trades. Part of our project required some drywall to be cut out, and when they left, there was not a speck of drywall dust in sight. In fact, I think they might have left my house cleaner than when they arrived. We thought it was going to be a multi-day job, but they pushed through and got the project done in one day. We were floored! Preferred Home Services has a loyal customer for life. They took all the stress out of the process. Hire these guys. You won’t regret it.
