Hayes Electrical is the most professional and friendly electrical service in the Lake Charles area! After we were having issues with our Generac and wanted to be prepared for the hurricane season, Hayes Electrical was quick to diagnose and repair the issue! Mr. Dorian was very polite and knowledgeable! When he came out to make the repair he kept us in the loop about exactly what he was doing and made sure we understood how to operate the Generac! Would definitely recommend Hayes Electrical to everyone!

Lockmoor service area.
From our Lake Charles shop.
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.
Power restoration calls in Lockmoor cluster around storm aftermath and aged service drops. After Hurricane Laura and Delta we restored hundreds of meter bases and masts pulled loose from older eaves, and we still see the residual damage today on homes that got patched fast and never properly re-anchored. Entergy will only re-energize a meter when the customer-owned equipment downstream is safe.
We arrive with a hot-stick, an insulated bonding kit, and the common service-entrance materials: 2/0 or 4/0 SER, 1-1/4 in or 2 in rigid mast, weatherheads, meter sockets in 100A and 200A, and listed grounding electrodes per NEC 250.53. If the mast is bent or the service-entrance conductors are pulled, we coordinate the Entergy disconnect, replace the assembly, request a temporary inspection at the Lake Charles Permits Office, and stand by for the utility reconnect.
For Lockmoor addresses inside the historic core, alley access and tight setbacks can make this work slower than it looks on the curb. We plan the work order so the disconnect is short and the home is back on power the same day whenever the AHJ inspection slot allows.
What we look at for this job
Permits and inspections
Lockmoor is a Lake Charles neighborhood inside the city limits, so electrical permits are issued by the City of Lake Charles Building and Permit Division. We pull and post the permit and schedule the inspections. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.
What's covered
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.

What Southwest Louisiana says about our work
Real reviews from real customers across Lake Charles, Sulphur, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding parishes.
My parents have an older home and was having an issue with circuits overloading. We contacted Hayes after seeing they had rave reviews. They sent someone right over, diagnosed the issue and gave us a few pricing package options. We selected the pricing package that was most affordable for us and scheduled their appointment to come back and do the work. On the day scheduled, two gentlemen arrived promptly, did a walk through assessment and helped us understand everything they would be doing and got right to work! They were professional, efficient and very thorough. My parents circuits were rerouted and are working better than ever!
Great service! Brent was able to diagnose the problem and complete the repair quickly and efficiently! He was able to solve a problem that my contractor's electricians were unable to solve! He was very courteous and professional. Highly recommend Hayes Electrical!! Great experience from first call to the end!
My thanks to Mackenzie and his crew for the work they did at my house. Mackenzie was very professional and made sure to answer all my questions regarding the work being done. I can honestly say I feel safer with the finished job. Not only upgrading my panel box, but adding more lighting to my home inside and out.
Common questions for Electrical Power Restoration in Lockmoor
My Lockmoor home lost power but my neighbors still have it. Who do I call first?
Call us first. If only your home is dark, the failure is almost always on the customer-owned mast, meter base, or main panel. Entergy will not investigate equipment past the weatherhead.
Can you reconnect my Lockmoor home the same day after storm damage?
Often yes if we get to you before the AHJ inspector closes for the day. We will tell you on the first phone call whether the timeline is realistic for your situation.
Why does the inspector need to look at it before Entergy will turn it back on?
A pulled meter or replaced mast is treated as a new service connection under NEC 230. The Lake Charles AHJ has to sign off before Entergy will dispatch a reconnect crew.
