You'll always know what's happening next—and when.

Our Services

Meter and electrical service solutions tailored to Mt Pleasant homes and building codes.

Standard Meter Box Replacement

Most Mt Pleasant homes operate on 100- or 200-amp service. When your meter box shows rust, corrosion, or age-related wear, replacement restores safe power flow and accurate tracking of your electrical use. We handle removal, new mounting, grounding, and final utility coordination.

Service Upgrades & 200-Amp Conversions

Older homes in neighborhoods like the Old Village or Wakendaw Lakes often run on limited amperage. Upgrading to 200-amp service supports modern appliances, EV chargers, and air conditioning without risk of overload. We install new meter, conduit, and service entrance to current code.

Meter Riser & Weatherhead Repair

The meter riser (mast) and weatherhead protect your connection from moisture and damage. Storm damage or age can crack these parts. We replace risers, weatherheads, and any corroded wiring to keep your service safe and code-compliant.

Emergency Meter Failures & Shutdowns

If your meter has failed or the utility company has disconnected service due to safety concerns, we can help. We assess the issue, handle repairs or replacement, coordinate reinspection, and work with your utility to restore power safely and quickly.

Why It Matters

Safe electrical service protects your home, saves energy, and meets local code requirements.

Safety First

Corroded or damaged meter boxes create fire and shock hazards. A licensed meter replacement removes these risks and keeps your electrical system safe for your family and anyone in your home.

A failed or outdated meter box is a sign of deeper electrical problems. Replacing it now prevents costly emergencies later.

Code Compliance & Home Value

Mt Pleasant and South Carolina electrical codes require meters to meet current standards. A code-compliant replacement passes inspection, qualifies for insurance claims if needed, and adds resale confidence. Buyers in neighborhoods across Mt Pleasant from Carolina Park to Dunes West appreciate modern, safe electrical systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about meter replacement in Mt Pleasant.

How long does a meter replacement take?

Most meter replacements take one to two days. The actual installation takes 2–4 hours once the utility shuts off power. Permit and inspection scheduling may add a day or two depending on your local authority's availability.

Do I need a permit for meter replacement?

Yes. Mt Pleasant and South Carolina require a permit for any meter box replacement. We pull all permits and coordinate inspections as part of our service.

Will my power be shut off during the work?

Yes. The utility company must disconnect power before we begin work. We coordinate the timing with you and notify the utility. Power is restored once the work passes final inspection.

What signs mean my meter needs replacement?

Look for rust, corrosion, loose wiring, a burned smell, visible cracks, or a meter older than 15 years. If your utility company has flagged it or you've had power loss issues, replacement may be needed. We inspect for free and advise if replacement is required.

Is meter replacement the same as a panel upgrade?

No. Meter replacement involves the outside box and service entrance. Panel or electrical panel upgrades involve your indoor breaker box. Both may be needed if you're increasing home amperage, but they're separate jobs.
