Power pole Forum

Hello everyone, I'm reaching out about the process of replacing power poles privately. Anyone dealt with this lately who could share some insights?

Hi PoleMaster, I’ve just gone through this Private Power Pole Replacement Perth process. It’s important to first know whether your notice is from Western Power or if it's a private advisory. Getting this sorted will help you know how to proceed.

Adding to what StormSentry said, weather is a major factor in Perth. Scheduling your installations when the weather is stable is key to avoiding delays.

An important aspect is choosing the appropriate pole material. Different materials like wood or steel have distinct advantages and drawbacks. Ensure you consult your contractor the most suitable choice for your particular situation.

I'd like to stress the importance of finding an experienced installer. Your choice can significantly affect the outcome of the installation. Review their credentials and past projects to ensure they’re up to the task.

Thanks for all the great advice. I'll be considering all these aspects as I plan my next steps. Any last-minute advice before I start this project?
