Emergency Generator Service FAQs
What qualifies as an emergency generator service call?
An emergency service call includes any situation where your generator fails to start, shuts down unexpectedly, produces unstable power, or does not transfer power during an active outage. If your safety, comfort, or home systems are affected, we treat it as a priority emergency.
How fast can Valley Services respond to an emergency?
We prioritize outage-related failures and typically respond the same day. During widespread outages, we schedule urgent calls based on severity, generator condition, and customer location to ensure the fastest possible service across North Alabama and Southern Tennessee.
What should I check before calling for emergency service?
You may check your main breaker, generator breaker, oil level, and battery indicator—however, do not attempt repairs yourself. If the generator won’t start or produces warning lights, it's safer to call our licensed technicians for proper diagnostics.
Do you repair emergencies for all generator brands?
Yes. We service all major brands, including Briggs & Stratton, Generac, Kohler, Champion, Honeywell, and Eaton. As a Certified Briggs & Stratton Dealer, we offer factory-level expertise while still repairing any brand.
Why does my generator shut down during an outage?
Generators may shut down due to overheating, oil pressure issues, clogged filters, voltage fluctuations, electrical overloads, faulty ATS communication, or battery problems. Our technicians quickly diagnose the cause and restore safe operation.
Can you repair my automatic transfer switch during an emergency?
Absolutely. Many emergency failures stem from ATS issues. We repair switching malfunctions, relay failures, communication problems, control board issues, and unsafe wiring conditions that prevent proper power transfer.
Will emergency repairs restore full power immediately?
In most cases, yes. Once the root issue is corrected, your generator can resume powering the home. If specialized parts are required, we provide temporary solutions when possible and complete the repair promptly once parts arrive.
What if my generator has not been maintained and fails during a storm?
We can still restore operation. Generators that lack regular maintenance may require filter changes, battery replacement, oil correction, electrical repair, or debris removal. After repair, we recommend establishing a maintenance schedule to prevent future emergencies.
Is emergency generator service more expensive than regular service?
Emergency service includes priority response and after-hours availability, which may have additional cost compared to scheduled maintenance. We provide clear pricing upfront and focus on restoring your power quickly and safely.
Can emergency service prevent future outages or shutdowns?
Yes. During an emergency visit, we identify both the immediate cause of failure and underlying issues that could lead to future breakdowns. Most emergency repairs are preventable with routine maintenance—our technicians will recommend what your generator needs moving forward.
