Storm damaged meter base ripped from the siding of a home after a tree fall

What's included

  • Storm & Wind Damage
    Meter base, service mast, weatherhead, and service drop repair after wind, ice, or tree damage.
  • Lightning Strike Damage
    Surge-damaged panels, breakers, HVAC contactors, and branch circuits diagnosed and replaced.
  • Adjuster-Ready Estimates
    Itemized written estimates with photos, code citations, and labor breakdowns formatted the way insurance adjusters expect.
  • Same-Day Emergency Service
    Storm-damaged services get priority. Utility coordination, temporary make-safe, and full repair on the same ticket when possible.
  • Utility Coordination
    We schedule the meter pull and reset with the utility so your outage stays as short as possible.
  • Direct Carrier Coordination
    We talk to State Farm, Allstate, Farm Bureau, Erie, USAA, and the rest directly so you do not have to translate.

Storms in East Tennessee do not negotiate. A tree comes down on the service drop and the meter base comes off the wall with it. Ice loads the riser until the mast bends at the strap. A close lightning strike cooks every breaker in the panel and takes the HVAC contactor with it. Insurance covers all of it — if you can prove what happened, what it costs, and that the repair brings the system back to code.

That is where we come in. Adjusters do not want guesses. They want a Tennessee-licensed electrical contractor's letterhead with itemized labor, materials, code citations, and time-stamped photos of every damaged component. We provide that. Every storm-damage estimate we write includes the National Electrical Code section that requires each piece of work, the actual part numbers we are installing, and labor broken out so the carrier cannot dispute it on principle.

On the work itself, we move fast. Emergency calls during and after major storm events get priority on our schedule. We coordinate the meter disconnect with your utility provider directly, do a temporary make-safe if needed, and complete the permanent repair as soon as the utility has the meter back in. Most single-family storm-damage repairs are completed in a single day.

We work with every major insurance carrier writing policies in East Tennessee. We do not collect a deductible to inflate the claim and we do not pad the estimate. The carrier gets a real number, the work gets done right, and you get your house back.

Service area includes Rogersville, Church Hill, Mount Carmel, Surgoinsville, Bulls Gap, Mooresburg, Kingsport, Morristown, Greeneville, and the surrounding Hawkins, Hamblen, and Greene County communities.
