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 Riverside, WA.

Talk to a real person
What should I do if my generator fails during a power outage?
Do not run it indoors or in a garage, and do not refuel a hot generator. If you smell fuel or see smoke, shut it off if it is safe and move away. Otherwise note any error code and what it did, then call and describe the problem.
How often should a home generator be serviced?
Follow the maintenance schedule in your generator's manual, because intervals vary by model. Most standby generators need service at least once a year, and portable generators benefit from fresh fuel, an oil check and a test run before storm season.
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.
Can I run a generator in a garage or near the house?
No. Generators produce carbon monoxide, which can kill. Never run one indoors, in a garage or in a partly enclosed space. Keep it outside and well away from windows, doors and vents, and install carbon monoxide alarms in your home.
How do I get started?
Call (877) 884-0342, describe your generator and what it is doing, and ask about an estimate and availability for your area.
