Emergency Property Pole Replacement
Emergency Property Pole Replacement in Brisbane
A Kenmore Sucess Story: When a property pole fails, it doesn’t just leave you without power—it can create a serious safety hazard.
Recently, our team responded to an emergency in Kenmore after a deteriorated private property power pole collapsed, bringing the overhead power line down with it.
Fortunately, thanks to quick action and great coordination between our team and trusted suppliers, we had a new property pole delivered and installed the very next day, restoring power as quickly and safely as possible.
Why did the property pole fall?
We had previously inspected the pole and found it was badly deteriorated. Although it still looked relatively solid from the outside, the timber had rotted internally.
As the photos show, once the pole was removed, there was very little sound timber left inside.
Unfortunately, before the planned replacement could take place, the pole collapsed.
What happens if your power pole falls?
A fallen electrical power pole can bring overhead power lines down and leave your home without electricity.
This is an electrical emergency that requires immediate attention. Never approach or touch fallen power lines—always treat them as live and contact a qualified electrician ASAP to make safe.

How quickly can a property pole be replaced?
Every situation is different, but in this case we were able to:
- Prioritise the emergency
- Source a replacement pole immediately
- Coordinate the installation
- Restore the customer’s power the following day
Projects like this rely on experienced electricians, trusted suppliers and efficient planning to minimise downtime. It’s a team effort and we are proud of how quickly we could respond.

How do I know if my property pole needs replacing?
Signs your private power pole may need replacing include:
- Leaning or unstable poles
