Storm-season and Southwest Louisiana considerations

Hurricane and severe-storm season on the Gulf Coast brings downed service masts, flooded meter bases, and dangerous generator back-feed. We repair storm-damaged service equipment, coordinate with the utility for a safe reconnect, and verify grounding before power is restored. If a downed power line is involved, stay well back and call 911 and the utility first — that line is theirs to make safe, and then we handle everything on your side of the meter.

Planning ahead beats reacting: a properly wired generator hookup and a modern breaker panel prevent many of the emergencies we get called for. Our storm-season electrical guide covers how to get ready before the next system spins up.
