Frequently Asked Questions
Lighting pole maintenance involves regular inspection for damage, cleaning fixtures, checking wiring and connections, tightening bolts, testing electrical components, and replacing worn or faulty parts to ensure safety and reliable operation.
A well-maintained light pole typically lasts 15 to 30 years, but harsh weather, poor installation, or lack of maintenance can significantly shorten its service life.
Common signs include flickering or non-working lights, leaning or damaged poles, rust or corrosion, exposed wiring, and cracked pole bases—any of which should be addressed promptly to prevent hazards.
Professional maintenance helps prevent outages, ensures code compliance, extends the life of lighting systems, and reduces liability risks for property owners and managers.
You should always hire licensed, insured electrical contractors specializing in light pole repair services for reliable, code-compliant results and quick response in case of emergencies.
