"I hired Josh and his team for a big job - two new breaker panels, new electric line to upstairs unit [it's a duplex], and trench for buried cable to garage where he did two new sub panels and 50amp car charger circuits. All this for $11k, about 1-2K less than a couple other local contractors. He is personable, works hard, and is quick to answer questions. Would recommend for electrical projects large or small. Thanks Josh!"

"Kyle did some electrical work for our kitchen remodel as part of a larger kitchen upgrade. Kyle seems like a nice guy but he made so many mistakes it really held up the kitchen remodel and it ended up taking weeks longer. Outlets were put in the wrong place. The wrong switch plates were installed. The biggest problem is that Kyle was so busy we could not get him back to finish/correct the work for days and weeks on end. In the end we had a non-functioning kitchen for 3 months. I think Kyle is a decent electrician but doesn't take the time to do the job right. Always in a rush. In the end it all got done but it was like pulling teeth."

"A-1 Mechanical installed my gas fireplace during the construction of our home. We have not been able to use the fireplace since we moved in because it emits noxious fumes, sets off the fire alarms, and makes you sick. We have repeatedly reported the problem to A-1 Mechanical. Although the technicians have repeatedly observed the noxious fumes, their only advice was to continue running it until it burns the chemicals/paint off. Ten years later after numerous attempts to burn off the chemical/paint, and several inspections by A-1, they are telling us the same story and denying anything is wrong. Despite the technician's acknowledgment that the fireplace is emitting fumes, they are writing a false report to the manufacturer that there is nothing wrong with the unit. Apparently A-1 mechanical does not stand by their work or the equipment they install."

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.
