"My pro Sal was very efficient in clearing manifold problems. He was patient in listening when I was trying to explain the problems that I was having. I had made a list and we went through all of the conditions that were giving me grief. After a system reboot something strange having to do with the font occurred. I called Sal and he worked remotely going through changes that had been made. The problem was finally resolved. I was very pleased with Sal's ability to decipher what this layman (laywoman) was trying to say. If I have problems in the future, I will contact Sal."

From start to finish we will educate our clients and communicate thoroughly through the whole process. Additionally we take on commercial work and residential work. We offer free consultations on all aspects of work. Let us help you meet your electrical needs today.

"We reached out through the Generac website to create an RFP and obtain a list of electrician bidders for our home backup power project in the Lamorinda area. I met with Lucas Fitch and he was extremely professional, collaborative, and very knowledgeable, ticking through the various options and considering my needs and wants when making a recommendation. They quickly provided us with a detailed bid that was price and value competitive. They were able to provide the best generator size for the price to back up our entire house and pool area with an automated system that also included getting a permit from our city. Despite having a robust business pipeline, they were able to schedule us to meet our timing requirements. Their entire team was top notch and professional as well, and they quickly and efficiently got everything done at the budget and timeframe we requested. We could not be happier with the results! We strongly recommend the Fitch team for any back up power needs. If we have other electrical needs in the future, we will work with Fitch again!"

FAQs for generator repair projects in Berkeley, CA

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 point—including the weatherhead, riser pipe, and meter base—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. 

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.
