Power Out Bulletin Board

Hello everyone, I'm reaching out about private power pole replacements in Perth. Anyone dealt with this lately who could share some tips?

Hi PoleMaster, I’ve just gone through this process. It’s vital to first understand 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. Planning your pole replacement 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 particular situation.

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

Thanks for all the great advice. I'm taking into account all these aspects as I plan my next steps. Any last-minute advice before I start this project?
