Hello everyone, I'd like to start a conversation about the process of replacing power poles privately. Anyone dealt with this lately who could share some tips?
Hi PoleMaster, I’ve recently handled a similar situation. It’s important to first understand whether the defect notice came directly from Western Power. Getting this sorted will help you figure out the next steps.

Adding to what StormSentry said, consider the weather conditions in Perth. Planning your pole replacement when the weather is more predictable is key to ensuring timely completion.
One crucial point is choosing the appropriate pole material. Wood and steel poles have distinct advantages and drawbacks. Make sure to discuss with your installer about the best options for your specific needs.
I'd like to stress the importance of securing a reputable contractor. Your choice can significantly affect the outcome of the installation. Review their credentials and previous work to verify they’re capable.
Thanks for all the great advice. I'll be considering all these aspects as I plan my next steps. Any further tips as I get ready to begin?
