When does one of these boxes on my property become an issue with regard to safety due to sinking and off the pad, as well as the aesthetics of my yard for enjoyment sake as well as value sake?
I can see this issue as a potential sticking point in selling a home as to me, and the uninitiated layperson with children that this leaning and sinking off of the pad is an issue.
I have contacted Dominion Power before, but usually get the runaround with no one to talk to in right of way office. It’s like there’s zero accommodation or accountability for the homeowner when we have an issue with the utility.
Since I have been here 15 or so years, I now have young children who are outdoors age as well as this particular pad has blown or leaked transformer oil and overheated during this time at least once.
I’m getting the feeling that having a sinking pad is a burden to the homeowner for the power company to scoff at not only for safety considerations but also for homeowner aesthetics and value of property.
Are there any ways to address my issues with Dominion outside of a service call that goes in the circular file?
