Hey all.
I have been getting more requests for service upgrade pricing lately. I've done several of these jobs, but there's a few things that I'm a little unsure about and would rather start getting the answers now than fly by the seat of my pants.
1. On a through-the-roof mast, can anyone point me to a good resource for how to install a guy wire for extra support? I've never done it and can't find much about it online. It makes me a little nervous penetrating a roof; I don't want to create any leaks for my customers.
2. On a similar note, the boot that goes around the conduit. The only time I've done this was when the customer was getting their roof replaced, so I didn't have to worry about it. I'm guessing that when you do a service change you don't get a roofer involved, so any good resources for this part of the job too?
3. What do you do when you need to anchor your mast or point of attachment to something like stucco? I was looking at one the other day and the existing service mast has the anchors pulled out of the stucco. The point of attachment is on a fascia board right next to it but the board is in bad shape and I wouldn't want to anchor to it.
Always thankful for your input... well, most if it
