Home Owners FAQ

Hello everyone, I'd like to start a conversation about the process of replacing power poles privately. Anyone dealt with this lately who could share some tips?

Hi PoleMaster, I’ve recently handled a similar situation. It’s vital to first know whether your notice is from Western Power or if it's a private advisory. Clarifying this will help you figure out the next steps.

Adding to what StormSentry said, weather is a major factor in Perth. Scheduling your installations when the weather is stable is key to avoiding delays.

An important aspect is choosing the right type of pole. Wood and steel poles have distinct advantages and drawbacks. Ensure you consult your contractor the most suitable choice for your specific needs.

I'd like to emphasize the importance of securing a reputable contractor. Your choice can significantly affect the outcome of the installation. Check their credentials and past projects to ensure they’re up to the task.
