Electrical Meter Replacement
Safe, code-compliant meter and meter-base replacements by Happy Home Electricians.
Restore Safety & Reliability at the Service Entrance
Your electric meter, meter socket (meter base), and service mast are the first line of your home’s power supply.
Corrosion, storm damage, heat, and age can turn the meter assembly into a serious hazard and a frequent cause of outages.
Happy Home Electricians provides fast, professional electrical meter replacement—including meter base, riser/mast, weatherhead, and service conductors—so your home stays safe and utility-ready.
Signs Your Meter or Meter Base Needs Attention
- Rust, scorching, or melting on the meter base or socket
- Loose meter, cracked enclosure, or water intrusion
- Intermittent power, flickering lights, or warm enclosure
- Storm damage to service mast, weatherhead, or anchoring
- Utility or inspector red-tagged equipment / failed inspection
- Upgrading service (100A → 150A/200A) or adding high-demand loads

Utility Coordination & Permitting—Handled
Meter work requires the utility to pull the meter and de-energize service. We coordinate everything to minimize downtime.
- Obtain permits and schedule inspections
- Coordinate meter pull/reconnect with the utility
- Perform replacement to spec, label, and seal as required
- Guide you on restoration steps if siding or stucco repairs are needed
Built to Code. Built to Last.
Every install follows current NEC and local utility standards: clear working space, mounting height, mast support, drip loops,
conductor sizing/temperature ratings, and proper bonding/grounding. We leave you with a clean install and a clear directory.
- Utility-approved equipment and meter socket types
- Correct conductor size, terminations, and torque specs
- Weatherproofing & corrosion-resistant fittings
- Documentation for inspection and future service
Not Sure It’s the Meter?
Flicker and outages aren’t always the meter—service lugs, neutral issues, or panel defects can cause the same symptoms.
We diagnose first and replace only what’s necessary.
- Thermal checks and voltage drop testing
- Neutral/ground integrity verification
- Moisture intrusion and corrosion assessment
- Recommendations if panel or feeders need attention
