Petrol and Small Home Generators in Wilro Park
Yes, we repair generators in Wilro Park, from petrol portables to compact home diesels, at your house. We are open 24/7 and arrive within 1 hour for breakdowns; each repair starts with a diagnosis on site and a written quote.
Wilro Park is a small, established residential suburb between Horison, Helderkruin and Roodekrans, made up mostly of freestanding family homes. Rather than a large standby set, many households here rely on a petrol generator or a compact diesel to keep the lights, fridge, Wi-Fi and TV going.
Petrol sets have a weakness of their own: petrol goes stale in a few months, and it leaves gum in the carburettor that blocks the tiny jets. That is why a petrol set that ran perfectly last winter may refuse to start today. We clean or repair the carburettor, replace the spark plug and fuel filter, change the oil and show you how to store the set so it starts next time.

Wilro Park Generator Faults We Fix
Small home sets in Wilro Park usually fail after storage, because fuel has gone stale or the battery has run down.
Runs rough or surges
A partly blocked jet or a dirty air filter makes a petrol engine hunt. We clean and set it up.
No power from the sockets
We check the breaker on the set, the AVR and the output wiring.
Small diesel won’t start
We test the battery and starter, and check for air in the fuel lines after a long rest.
Storing a Petrol Generator So It Starts Next Time
If you will not use the set for a while, either run it regularly or follow the storage steps in your handbook, which usually means using fresh fuel and stopping it from sitting in the carburettor. Keep the set dry and cool, and store petrol in an approved container away from the house. Always run a portable set outdoors, away from doors and windows, because of carbon monoxide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why won’t my petrol generator start after a few months?
Petrol goes stale and leaves gum in the carburettor, which blocks the jets. We clean or repair the carburettor, fit a new plug and fresh fuel, and show you how to store the set.
Do you repair petrol generators in Wilro Park?
Yes. We repair and service petrol and small diesel sets throughout Wilro Park, at your home.
Can I plug my portable generator into a wall socket?
No. Back-feeding through a plug is dangerous for you and for anyone working on the lines. Use extension leads from the set, or have an electrician fit a proper changeover switch.
Can you come out after hours?
Yes. We are open 24/7 and arrive within 1 hour for breakdowns.
