Get quotes from generator installers
Describe your standby generator project once. Where we have an independent professional covering your area, we pass your request to them so they can contact you directly.
Generator Handbook is an independent information resource. We do not install, repair or warrant generators. Requests may be shared with independent generator professionals so they can respond. Coverage varies by area and submitting a request does not guarantee a match, a quote, or a price.
Why use this form
- Explain the project once instead of repeating it to every company you call.
- Give an installer the details they ask for anyway — location, fuel, timing, service size.
- Compare more than one option where more than one company covers your area.
- No charge, and no obligation to hire anyone who contacts you.
What happens after you send this
- Your request is stored and reviewed by a person, usually within one business day.
- We check the details are complete and that your project is something a generator installer actually handles.
- If an independent professional covers your area, we pass on your request. If nobody covers it yet, we do not share your details.
- Any company that receives it contacts you directly — normally by phone or email, using the contact preference you choose below.
Generator Handbook does not quote prices, schedule work, or carry out installations. Read more about how this site works on the about page.

Common questions
Does Generator Handbook install generators?
No. Generator Handbook is an independent information resource. We do not sell, install, repair or warrant generators. Any work would be carried out by an independent company you deal with directly.
Is a quote guaranteed?
No. We pass qualifying requests to independent generator professionals where we have someone covering your area. We are building that coverage area by area, so there may be no one to send your request to yet. If that is the case, your request is not shared.
What does it cost me?
Nothing. There is no charge to send a request and no obligation to hire anyone who contacts you.
Who will contact me?
An independent generator company, not Generator Handbook. Verify any company's licensing and insurance yourself before hiring, and get the scope and price in writing.
What information gets shared?
What you enter on this form: your name, the contact details you provide, your location, and the project details you describe. We do not sell your details as a general mailing list.
My generator is down right now. Is this the right form?
If it is an emergency — gas smell, smoke, sparks or a live electrical hazard — call your utility or 911 instead. For a non-emergency fault you can use this form, but choose 'Generator service or repair' so it is routed as a service request.
