In today’s episode of Best of Build Show, Matt Risinger is joined by master electrician and builder Travis Brungardt to walk through a real-world electrical service repair after a fallen tree causes significant damage to a home’s power service. This episode goes beyond the basics, breaking down exactly what failed, why it failed, and how a licensed professional safely restores power. Travis explains the serious dangers of compromised service equipment, demonstrates specialized tools used for handling large-gauge conductors, and outlines the critical safety protocols that make this work strictly non-DIY. From rebuilding the service mast and replacing damaged conductors to coordinating inspections and utility reconnections, this episode offers a clear, educational look at expert-level electrical repair—and why proper training, experience, and precision are essential when working with live electrical services.
