ALP Systems, Inc ., would like you to ponder something... Picture what lightning damage looks like. A broken tree on top of downed power lines, a burnt up TV, A blackened AC unit with melted wires. Horrible, yes, but lightning doesn't always directly hit your property. It's easy to cross your fingers and hopes it doesn't burn anything up because the percentages are against a direct strike happening. ALP Systems is the world leader in lightning protection with over 30 years in the business. With ALP on your side, when you hear thunder, you know you're saving money. Visit our website for more information www.alpsystemsinc.com or our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/AlpSystemsIncorporated/

"Was originally scheduled to come out to give an estimate scheduled through the Angi app. They did not show up for the estimate appointment. When I called they blamed the app and that they don?t schedule appointments for estimates using the Angi app. They gave me an estimate over the phone. I didn?t provide them enough detail about what I was needing to have done. (my mistake). I scheduled an appointment to come out. They missed the appointment the first day. They then offered to come out first thing the next day which was nice. The technician struggled with the work, possibly because they didn?t have enough information upfront. The technician dropped the light fixture and damaged my dining room table. Probably because he was not well armed with the information he needed about the task at hand. Not really his fault. The light fixture did not appear to be well anchored to the ceiling when the job was completed. Tech assured me it was, but since I was helping to hang it,I could see that it was not. At this point, the tech seemed worn out. When I called and asked to send someone else out to secure it better, they spoke to the tech who installed the fixture and he assured them it was fine. So that conversation was closed. They did offer to fix my table that was damaged. However they really wanted to know immediately about how they could resolve it. After telling them that I needed to find out the cost of repair and needed some time to investigate. They also told me at that time that the original estimate they gave me was too low based on the work they actually had to do. They did honor the original quote but basically wanted the table damage resolved that instant, before the technician left. I paid them and sent them on their way and told them I would have to get back to them on the cost of the table repair. Perhaps if when the tech saw the scope of the original estimate didn?t match what I actually needed done and we had talked about it then, we might have had the opportunity to adjust to get more people involved. That might have eliminated dropping the light on my table and facilitated a more positive experience. Or they could have come out to do the original estimate as scheduled through the Angi app or fixed that disconnect with Angi that they were apparently aware of. I?ll need to hire someone else to come out and reattach the light more securely. I?ll pay to have my table fixed myself simply because I don?t want to deal with these folks. Just seems like bad luck with me. They seem nice and they tried but the end result was not a positive experience."

Generator repair services FAQs

A standard electrical meter riser replacement takes an average of two to three hours for the actual installation work, though the entire process may span a full day. This timeline includes coordination with your utility company for power disconnection and reconnection, the physical replacement work, and any required inspections. Weather conditions and permit processing can affect the schedule. Plan for a day without electrical service while the work is being completed.

The homeowner is responsible for maintaining and replacing the electrical meter riser and related components on their property. While your utility company owns and maintains the actual meter and the service lines leading to your home, everything on your side of the connection pointโ€”including the weatherhead, riser pipe, and meter baseโ€”falls under your responsibility. This division means that when damage occurs or upgrades are needed, the homeowner bears the cost of replacement.

Yes, your power must be disconnected during an electrical meter riser replacement. Since this work involves your home's main electrical service entrance, the utility company will need to disconnect power at the service drop before the electrician can safely begin work.ย 

This outage lasts for several hours while the replacement is completed and inspected. Make appropriate arrangements for perishable food items and consider alternative accommodations if the weather is extreme.

If you're simply replacing a damaged meter riser without changing your electrical service capacity, you can often keep your existing panel. However, if you're upgrading from a lower amperage service to a higher one, you'll likely need to upgrade your electrical panel as well. Many electricians recommend evaluating your entire electrical service during riser replacement, as combining these projects can be more cost-effective than completing them separately.
