Storm damage doesn't always look dramatic. Sometimes it just shows up as lights flickering, appliances cutting out, or power that comes and goes without warning. That's exactly what this Mound homeowner was dealing with - and that kind of intermittent power isn't just annoying, it's genuinely dangerous.
Here's the thing about a damaged meter socket: the problem is easy to ignore at first. Power comes back, things seem fine, and you tell yourself it'll hold. But the socket is the entry point for every single amp of electricity coming into your home. When it's compromised, you're looking at potential arcing, overheating, and fire risk. Not something to sit on.
We came out, assessed the situation, and replaced the 200A meter socket from the ground up. Clean installation, properly secured, and fully restored to safe operating condition. The homeowner went from unreliable power to a setup they can actually count on.
This is the kind of work that doesn't get a lot of attention - it's not flashy - but it matters more than almost anything else on your home's electrical system. If a storm has rolled through your area and something feels off with your power, that's worth a call. Don't wait for it to get worse.
