Generator Repair

When your standby generator fails during a Carolina ice storm or a summer thunderstorm outage, every minute without power matters. Never Dark's generator repair service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with factory-trained technicians and common repair parts stocked on every service vehicle.

Our repair process begins with a thorough diagnostic. Modern standby generators store fault codes in their control panels - we read those codes, test the battery and charging system, inspect the fuel supply, verify sensor readings, and test the automatic transfer switch. Most issues fall into a few categories: dead or failing batteries, fuel supply problems (especially propane regulators and natural gas pressure), sensor failures, and control board faults.

For Generac, Kohler, Cummins, and Kenerator systems, we stock the most commonly needed parts: batteries, spark plugs, air and oil filters, fuses, sensors, and control boards. In many cases, we can diagnose and repair your generator in a single visit. For less common parts, our dealer relationships give us priority ordering - typically 2 to 3 business days.

During severe weather events, we prioritize emergency calls. If your generator fails during an active outage, we triage based on medical needs, vulnerable occupants, and outage severity. Our goal is to get your system running again before the utility restores power - so you're covered for the duration of the outage, not just after it ends.

We also repair generators we didn't install. If your system was put in by another dealer who no longer services the area, or if you've moved into a home with an existing generator, we'll inspect, service, and repair it. Our technicians are certified across all major brands and stay current with manufacturer training updates.

When hurricane remnants push through the Upstate and power is out for days, our repair team works around the clock. We coordinate with local fuel suppliers for emergency propane delivery and prioritize calls based on urgency. Call (864) 457-1409 anytime - if it's after hours, our on-call technician responds.
