Hi PoleMaster, I’ve just gone through this process. It’s important to first know whether the defect notice came directly from Western Power. Clarifying this will help you know how to proceed.

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 right type of pole. Different materials like wood or steel have varied lifespans and costs. Make sure to discuss with your installer about the best options for your particular situation.

I'd like to emphasize the importance of finding an experienced installer. Your choice can greatly influence the outcome of the installation. Check their credentials and past projects to verify they’re up to the task.
