Residential Generator Installation & maintenance in Shreveport & Bossier City

Whole-Home Standby Power You Can Rely On

Power outages in Northwest Louisiana are not a matter of if — they are a matter of when.

Storms, grid failures, and utility disruptions can leave your home without power for hours or even days. When that happens, comfort becomes secondary. Safety becomes the priority.

At Platinum Home Services, we provide professional whole-home generator installation in Shreveport, Bossier City, Benton, Blanchard, Haughton, and surrounding communities. Our mission is simple: keep your home protected when the grid fails.

Why Install a Whole-Home Generator?

A standby generator restores power automatically within seconds of an outage.

That means:

  • Your HVAC system keeps running
  • Your refrigerator and freezer stay cold
  • Your lights remain on
  • Your security systems stay active
  • Medical equipment continues operating
  • Sump pumps and well systems keep working

Unlike portable generators, whole-home systems engage automatically and can power your entire home — not just a few extension cords.

When installed correctly, a standby generator delivers seamless, uninterrupted protection.

Professional Generator Installation

Installing a standby generator requires more than placing equipment on a slab.

It involves:

  • Accurate load calculations
  • Proper panel integration
  • Transfer switch installation
  • Fuel supply coordination
  • Code-compliant electrical connections
  • Final system testing under load

We carefully evaluate your home’s electrical demands to ensure your generator is sized properly — not oversized, not undersized.

Every installation is customized for long-term reliability and safety.

Generac Generator Installation

Generac is one of the most trusted generator manufacturers in the industry.

We install Generac standby systems according to manufacturer specifications to protect warranty coverage and ensure dependable performance.

Whether you need protection for your entire home or priority circuits, we design a system that fits your electrical needs and long-term goals.

Standby & Backup Generator Options

We offer:

  • Whole-home standby generators
  • Partial-home backup systems
  • Automatic transfer switches
  • Load management systems

Standby generators activate automatically when power is lost and shut down automatically when utility power returns.

No extension cords. No manual startup. No uncertainty.

Generator Maintenance & Service

A generator that is not maintained is a generator that may fail when you need it most.

We provide generator maintenance services including:

  • System testing under load
  • Fuel system inspection
  • Electrical connection inspection
  • Transfer switch testing
  • Battery testing
  • Preventative component replacement

Regular maintenance ensures your system performs properly during storm season and extended outages.

Generator maintenance is also included in our Platinum Level Plan for qualifying systems.

Do You Need a Panel Upgrade?

Many homes require electrical panel upgrades before installing a generator.

If your panel is outdated, undersized, or not generator-ready, we will recommend the proper solution to ensure safe integration.

Your generator is only as reliable as the system it connects to.

SCHEDULE Generator installation or maintenance

Power outages should never leave your home vulnerable.

If you are ready to protect your home with a whole-home standby generator, call Platinum Home Services at (318) 751-2828 to schedule your consultation.

    Jon and Platinum plumbing are amazing I have had three recent incidents where I needed issues with my well pump and septic sprinklers worked on.

  • Water Heater Repaired in Less than an Hour
    I was freaking out when my water heater quit working. I made one phone call to Platinum Plumbing and in less than an hour Mike came out and fixed it. These guys are awesome. Fast, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable. Thanks again, Platinum Plumbing

  • Water Heater and Well Pump Issues Solved in One Day
    I had an outstanding experience with Platinum Plumbing & Water Well services! When my well pump suddenly stopped working, they were able to come out the same day, which was a huge relief. On top of that, I also needed help with my water heater, and they took care of both issues during the same visit. The tech, Jon, was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. He took the time to explain what was going on, gave me options, and got everything back up and running quickly. It's rare to find a company that is not only responsive but also delivers quality service with no hassle. If you are dealing with well or plumbing issues and need fast, reliable help, I highly recommend giving them a call. Thanks again to Jon and the team for the excellent service!

  • Received Great Value from the Platinum Plumbing Package
    We just bought a house with no idea of the troubles with the plumbing and everything else. It was a total disaster. I looked on Angi for plumbers and Platinum Plumbing stuck out, we called, they came out and did their inspection...it's worse than we imagined. They gave quotes on everything, we picked the Platinum pkg and they completed the work the same day. Amazing! Greg, Charles and Nathan worked all day and into the evening to get the job done. It's amazing that they're very polite, courteous, professional and helped us with everything that needed to be done, even helped my husband with a drain he was redoing! When I need another job, I will definitely call on Platinum Plumbing! I would recommend everyone who needs a good plumber to call Platinum Plumbing first and they'll be no need to call anyone else. Go Platinum. You won't go wrong!
