Generator Repair Service in Lafayette, LA
A generator that isn’t working correctly is worse than no generator at all — it gives you false confidence heading into a storm. We diagnose and repair all major residential generator brands across Lafayette and the Acadiana region, with emergency availability when you can’t afford to wait.
Signs Your Generator Needs Repair
It won’t start or is failing its automatic weekly self-test. Standby generators run a self-test each week to confirm they’re ready. If yours is skipping tests, shutting down early, or refusing to start, that’s a fault that needs to be identified and resolved before the next outage — not during one.
It runs but your home has no power. The generator starts up, but nothing inside the house comes on. This is almost always a transfer switch fault — one of the most common repair calls we receive from Acadiana homeowners. It’s fixable, but only if it’s caught before you actually need the system.
You’re hearing unusual noises, seeing exhaust smoke, or smelling fuel. These are symptoms of mechanical wear, fuel system problems, or exhaust issues. Running a generator in this condition can cause accelerated internal damage and, depending on placement, create a carbon monoxide risk. Don’t run it and hope it clears up — call us.
Error codes are showing on the control panel. Your generator’s onboard diagnostics flag specific faults when something is wrong. We identify and address the root cause — not just clear the code.
It ran extended hours during a recent storm and hasn’t been inspected since. Extended run time puts real hours on the engine. Before returning the unit to standby for another season, a post-storm inspection is worth doing.
It hasn’t been serviced in over a year. If you can’t remember the last time it was touched, that’s your answer.
Emergency Generator Service in Lafayette — 24/7, No Overtime Charges
When your generator fails with a storm on the way or goes down mid-outage, you need someone who responds fast not a voicemail and a callback two days later.
Shockwave offers 24/7 emergency generator service across Lafayette and the greater Acadiana area with no overtime charges at any hour. We prioritize emergency generator calls during active storm events and in the days immediately following, when functional backup power matters most.
Call us immediately if:
- Your generator won’t start and a storm is approaching within 48 hours
- The generator is running but your home has no power
- The system started, then shut down unexpectedly mid-outage
- Your control panel is showing fault codes you don’t recognize
- You can smell fuel or see smoke coming from the unit
If something seems wrong with your generator before a storm, treat it like the emergency it is. A problem identified 48 hours before landfall is fixable. A problem identified when the power is already out is a much harder situation.
