Repair of Hydro Power Line Connection

I recently discovered I had a squirrel problem in my house. They had chewed through the main mast where the Toronto Hydro power lines connect to my house. The squirrels also chewed through the wires under the mast and ripped a hole in my roof, leaving bare wires exposed to the elements and to each other. Hydro refused to fix it, another electrician quoted me an astronomical price after a 2 week delay (clearly he didn't want the job), and another electrician's only response was to laugh at me when I described the problem. Then I contacted Peter, and he immediately called me and expressed his concern that the exposed wires could cause an electrical fire at any moment. He came by the house the next day and arranged to fix the problem on the next non-rainy day. In the interim, he covered the bare wires with a temporary cover to minimize risk of fire until he could fix it properly.

All in one working day, Peter replaced the damaged mast, conduit, wire, and part of the hydro meter that had rusted due to the squirrel damage. He rebuilt the conduit in a different way than before so that squirrels would not be able to damage it again. Peter obtained all of the necessary approvals from inspectors and arranged for Toronto Hydro to redo a permanent power connection to the newly repaired mast. Peter did a phenomenal job, very quickly, and at a very reasonable price. It's hard finding a good electrician in Toronto, as evidenced by Peter being the only electrician who took my problems seriously. I would definitely use Peter again.
