Amherst, Massachusetts is the flagship campus town of UMass Amherst and part of the renowned Five College Consortium alongside Amherst College, Hampshire College, Smith College, and Mount Holyoke. With a large residential population that swells during the academic year, Amherst has a diverse mix of housing, from historic homes in the town center to family neighborhoods and rural properties stretching toward the Pelham Hills and Hadley farmland. All of them share the same vulnerability to power outages driven by New England weather.
Whether you live in a colonial near the Town Common or a contemporary home off East Pleasant Street, our team will assess your electrical load, evaluate your property layout, and recommend the right Generac or Kohler standby generator for your household.
Amherst's economy depends on education, healthcare, and small businesses that cannot afford extended downtime. We install commercial-grade systems that keep operations running smoothly through any outage.
We are a family-oriented company founded in 1994 in Swanzey, New Hampshire. Over the past three decades, we have grown to more than 70 employees and built a reputation across the tri-state region for honest work, fair pricing, and installations done right the first time.
Amherst is approximately 80 minutes from our Swanzey headquarters, and our licensed Massachusetts crews are in the Pioneer Valley on a regular basis for installations and service appointments.
Beyond Amherst, we serve Hadley, South Hadley, Pelham, Leverett, Sunderland, Belchertown, and the wider Hampshire County area. Our goal is to make reliable backup power accessible to every homeowner in the Amherst area and throughout Massachusetts.
