Trucks dispatch out of 803 W Bayou Pines Dr, Ste D, Lake Charles, LA 70601. Most days a crew is already inside Calcasieu Parish on another job, so the drive is short. For after-hours calls we roll one out from the shop.
Service mast and meter socket repair in Dequincy is one of our higher-volume jobs because perimeter overhead drops are longer than Lake Charles proper and more exposed to wind and tree-limb damage. After Hurricanes Laura and Delta we replaced hundreds of pulled masts in Sulphur, Westlake, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding cities, and the residual damage continues to surface today.
We coordinate with Entergy (or Cleco in parts of DeQuincy) to pull the disconnect, then replace the meter socket (Milbank, Eaton, or Square D 100A or 200A as appropriate), 1-1/4 in or 2 in rigid mast with proper guy attachment to studs or rafters, weatherhead, and service-entrance conductors (2/0 or 4/0 SER for typical residential). Mast height is set to meet NEC 230.24 service drop clearances (typically 10 to 12 ft over a driveway, more over a road). Grounding electrode conductors per NEC 250.66 are re-attached or replaced as needed.
A permit is filed at the Calcasieu Parish Office of Permits and Inspections for any mast or meter work. The AHJ inspection must clear before the utility reconnects. We sequence the work so the home is back on power the same day whenever the inspector slot allows.
DeQuincy is in northern Calcasieu Parish, generally unincorporated for permit purposes, so electrical permits are issued by the Calcasieu Parish Police Jury Building Division. We confirm jurisdiction by address and handle the permit. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.
Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every install. If our work fails because of how we put it in, we come back and fix it at no charge. Documented in writing at handoff and stays with the home.
Here is the no-spin cut on service mast and meter socket repair. Same answer we would give a friend in Westlake or Carlyss, whether or not we end up winning the job.
Times are typical, not guaranteed. Traffic, weather, and parts on hand can shift them. We will tell you a real window when you call.

Dorian Hayes started Hayes Electrical because he believed homeowners deserved better than what most contractors give them. A licensed master electrician with seven years of experience, he and his wife Juliet built the ...
Real reviews from real customers across Lake Charles, Sulphur, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding parishes.
Great price Brent, Mackenzie and Bailey worked diligently each and every day till they finished. It was hot as there was no power in the trailer, but they never complained. Anytime I asked a question they had an answer. I highly recommend Hayes Electric. His people are the best!!!
A group of men and woman that are talented and focused. All licensed. Their customer service is excellent. They were able to upgrade my electrical system for a house built in the 1970s. We removed outdated fluorescent lighting, and these were replaced with current LED canned lighting, expanded the circuit board and repaired the drywall hole that the old fluorescence left in the ceiling. When we asked for options, they gave us multiple options from which we discussed pros and cons of each. Lastly, they are honest, trustworthy, and reliable.
I've had the privilege of getting to know Juliet and Dorian, and what stands out most is how much they care about people. They are genuine, kind, and passionate about doing things the right way qualities that shine through in the way they serve their customers and lead their company. In an industry where trust matters, Juliet and Dorian embody integrity, authenticity, and heart. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for electricians who treat their customers like family.
I would give Hayes Electrical a 10-Star rating if I could. Superior workmanship and performance and highly skilled technicians for a great customer experience. I highly recommend Hayes Electrical for any and all of your electrical repairs and upgrades.
The mast, meter socket, and service-entrance conductors are customer-owned past the weatherhead, so the homeowner is responsible. Insurance often covers storm damage; we provide the documentation you need.
Typically four to six hours of work, scheduled so the parish inspection and utility reconnect happen the same day. The home is usually back on power by evening.
Yes if the mast is sound. Often the socket has internal corrosion that the mast does not show. We replace what is failing, not what is fine.
