Strongsville Outage History

Why Strongsville Homeowners Act

FirstEnergy has named the Strongsville area directly in its restoration notices. After the late August 2023 storms, which took out more than 164,000 Illuminating Company customers, its August 27 advisory set the estimate here at 11 p.m. the following day, with 30,100 customers still waiting across the system. Wind brought it back in 2026: more than 162,000 of the same utility's customers lost power on March 13, and Cuyahoga County was reported as the hardest hit in the state.

Frequently Asked Questions

Strongsville Generator Questions, Answered

Do I need a permit for a generator in Strongsville?

Expect one. The Building Department’s list says a permit comes first when modifications are made to the electrical, mechanical or plumbing systems, and it lists electrical work among projects that need one. Generator One pulls the permit with a licensed electrician and schedules the inspections.

Can a Strongsville homeowner get the permit instead?

Only for work you will personally perform on your own home. If a contractor does any part of it, that contractor must be registered with the city before a permit can be issued. Inspections need at least 24 hours of notice, which we schedule.

What knocks out power in Strongsville?

Big wind and summer storms on Illuminating Company lines have been the large events. FirstEnergy’s August 27, 2023 advisory listed the Strongsville area for restoration at 11 p.m. the next day, and more than 164,000 of the utility’s customers had lost power.

Which gas company would feed a Strongsville generator?

The city’s utility page lists Columbia Gas. If Columbia Gas of Ohio already serves your home, the generator can usually run from it with nothing to refill, once we verify the meter at your estimate. Lots with no main go with propane.

How do I get a Strongsville generator repaired?

Call Service at (440) 754-6142. Our team rolls from our nearest facility on a fully stocked truck, so most repairs are done in a single visit.
