Whole-Home Generator Installation in Scarborough: Scarborough's housing stock is predominantly post-war — 1950s–1960s bungalows and back-splits in Birch Cliff and Scarborough Village, 1970s–1980s detached homes and townhomes in Agincourt and Malvern, and some newer infill developments. The Scarborough Bluffs area has unique properties with dramatic lake views.

Frequently Asked Questions About Whole-Home Generator Installation in Scarborough
The ideal size (typically 14kW-24kW for residential) depends on your home's square footage, essential appliances, and desired backup coverage. We'll help you determine the right fit during our assessment.
Most installations are completed within 1-3 days, depending on site complexity, fuel line requirements, and electrical panel work. Permitting adds to the overall project timeline.
A standby generator is permanently installed, automatically turns on during outages via an ATS, and runs on natural gas or propane. Portable generators require manual setup, fueling, and extension cords.
Yes, an ESA electrical permit is mandatory for all whole-home generator installations. Additionally, Scarborough has specific bylaws (like 396-2018) regarding noise and setbacks that must be followed. RenoHouse handles all permitting.
We specialize in installing leading brands such as Generac, Kohler, and Briggs & Stratton, known for their reliability and performance.
A typical turnkey 16kW installation in the GTA ranges from $8,000 to $18,000. Overall project costs can vary from $6,500 to $22,000, with an average around $12,500, depending on various factors.
Standby generators typically require annual maintenance to ensure optimal performance and longevity. This includes oil changes, filter replacements, and system checks.
Most whole-home standby generators are designed to run on either natural gas or liquid propane (LP). We will connect your generator to the appropriate fuel source available at your property.
If your older home still has a 100-amp panel, upgrading to 200 amps is highly recommended — especially if you're adding major appliances, EV chargers, or renovating. Modern homes draw significantly more power, and the upgrade future-proofs your electrical system while improving safety.
Knob-and-tube wiring isn't inherently dangerous when undisturbed, but it lacks grounding, can't handle modern electrical loads, and becomes hazardous when insulation is added around it. We recommend replacement during any renovation that opens walls — it also improves your home insurance eligibility.
Yes, but it requires careful cutting to avoid cracking the surrounding plaster. We use specialized techniques to install recessed lighting in plaster ceilings, and can run new wiring through the ceiling cavity from above. The result is modern lighting without damaging your home's character.
