lose power more than most.
It's not bad luck. Bloomfield Hills has a perfect storm of aging infrastructure, mature tree canopy, and above-ground power lines that turn every major weather event into a multi-day outage. Here's what you're dealing with.
Bloomfield Hills homes are among the most valuable in Michigan, and they're filled with systems that can't go offline: wine cellars requiring precise temperature control, finished basements with HVAC and entertainment equipment, home offices running businesses, and medical equipment keeping family members safe.
The township's mature tree canopy and above-ground power infrastructure mean outages aren't a once-in-a-blue-moon event — they're a recurring reality. DTE's own data shows Bloomfield Hills among the highest outage frequencies in their service area.
A single extended outage can cause $5,000-25,000 in damage: spoiled wine collections, burst pipes destroying finished basements, food spoilage, and business interruption. Most homeowners don't discover the full cost until it's already happened.
A whole-home standby generator changes the equation. Power goes out, generator turns on — automatically, in under 10 seconds. No extension cords, no portable generators in the garage, no hoping the power comes back before the basement floods.
We ONLY do generators.
Your electrician does them on the side.
There's a reason the best surgeons don't also do dentistry. Specialization matters. We've installed more whole-home generators in Oakland County than anyone. We don't do panel upgrades, ceiling fans, or outlet replacements. Just generators.
That focus means we've seen every install scenario, every DTE curveball, and every permit issue. We don't learn on your project — we already know.

We don't ask for reviews. We earn them. Here's what Bloomfield Hills homeowners have to say.
"Gary handled the DTE approval, the permits, the inspection — all of it. I didn't have to make a single phone call. Generator was running before winter. These guys know exactly what they're doing."
"After the 2023 ice storm left us without power for 3 days, I called Powerhouse. They had a generator spec'd, DTE filed, and installation scheduled within the week. Absolute professionals."
"Generator came on during the ice storm. I didn't even notice the power went out — just heard the unit start and figured out the rest later. Worth every penny and then some."
The DTE headache?
We handle it.
Every standby generator in Bloomfield Hills requires a DTE gas meter upgrade. Most contractors don't tell you this upfront. We've navigated this process hundreds of times. We submit your application on day one — not weeks later.
⚡ Most Bloomfield Hills installs complete in 4-6 weeks. The 2-10 month timelines you hear about? That's what happens when your contractor doesn't know the DTE process.
