A damaged service mast or weatherhead can involve both customer-owned electrical equipment and the utility connection. Guardian assesses the property-side scope, identifies coordination needs and plans repair or replacement. Keep away from damaged overhead wiring and report downed or low utility lines to the utility and emergency services.

The service mast supports or routes overhead service-entry equipment at the building. The weatherhead and service-entrance arrangement help define how that supply reaches the meter and disconnect. Ownership and repair responsibilities must be confirmed for the actual utility and installation.
A roofing change, impact damage, loosened attachment or deteriorated support can prompt a review. Send photographs only from a safe location on the ground. Do not approach sagging conductors, climb a ladder near the service or attempt to move damaged wiring.
For an urgent concern, describe whether the mast is leaning, an attachment has pulled away, the enclosure is damaged or power has been lost. The safe response may require utility isolation before customer-side repairs can proceed.
A planned mast replacement may also need coordination with siding or roof repairs. Guardian separates electrical work from building repairs so the written scope identifies the mounting, conduit, service-entry components and any related meter equipment work.
A service repair is not complete merely because the visible hardware has been replaced. Required approvals, utility requirements and reconnection arrangements need to be agreed for the property. A booking request cannot guarantee a utility energization time.
Share the complete address, utility name and any incident or inspection information. For broader supply changes, compare service upgrades rather than assuming a mast repair includes a higher service rating.
Access height, roof geometry, equipment condition and the affected conductors influence the work. Restoration may involve a coordinated interruption, replacement support and correction of damage that becomes visible during assessment.
The proposal should explain electrical components, required access equipment, utility coordination and separate roof or wall restoration. Keep people, pets and vehicles away from suspected damaged overhead equipment while instructions are obtained from the utility or emergency responders.

The utility handles its own equipment. Guardian confirms the customer-side electrical scope and coordinates the interface as needed.
No. The damage may affect either or both; the agreed scope must identify which components require work.
No. Stay clear of the equipment and contact the utility or emergency services where damaged lines create immediate danger.
Yes, describe the planned roof work so electrical access, isolation and restoration responsibilities can be discussed.
That cannot be promised from an online request. Work scope, approvals and the utility’s process determine the sequence.
A ground-level view taken well away from damaged equipment can help. Do not use ladders, open enclosures or approach low conductors.
Keep clear and contact the utility or emergency service for a hazardous line condition. Ownership and responsibility must be established before property-side mast repairs, utility work, inspections and reconnection are coordinated. Guardian does not claim control over utility-owned line restoration or the utility’s schedule.
