Commercial Light Pole Repair Services in Cumming, Georgia
Light poles are everywhere in commercial properties — parking lots, gas stations, apartment complexes, office parks, school campuses, and municipal properties. When a light pole fails, it’s not just an inconvenience. It creates safety hazards (dark parking lots invite crime, trips and falls), liability risks (injuries in poorly lit areas), and a negative impression on customers or tenants. Light poles fail for many reasons: electrical (bad photocell, failed ballast or driver, corroded wiring, tripped breaker), mechanical (damaged pole from vehicle impact, loose anchor bolts, leaning pole), or simply age (LED drivers and bulbs eventually fail, old fixtures become obsolete).
At Rob Ingram’s Freestyle Lighting and Electrical, we specialize in light pole repair and maintenance for commercial properties across Cumming and North Georgia. Our bucket trucks allow us to access every pole on your property safely and efficiently. We diagnose and repair electrical issues: replace photocells (light sensors), swap out bad ballasts or LED drivers, repair corroded underground wiring, and reset tripped breakers. We also handle mechanical repairs: straighten leaning poles, replace damaged anchor bolts, repair or replace pole bases, and even replace entire poles if needed. We offer scheduled maintenance programs to keep your entire parking lot lit reliably. Call us today for a free light pole inspection and quote.
Light pole repair is one of our most requested commercial services, and we’ve seen every problem imaginable. We own our bucket trucks so we can respond quickly to emergency calls — like a pole knocked down by a delivery truck or an entire parking lot dark due to a failed circuit. We also understand that your parking lot is your customer’s first impression. When lights are out, it looks neglected and unsafe. We work after hours to minimize disruption to your business or tenants. And we offer maintenance programs that include regular photocell testing, bulb/ driver replacement, and pole integrity inspections. One call to us prevents a dozen headaches down the road.

A: We recommend an annual inspection for all parking lot light poles. We check photocells, test electrical circuits, inspect for rodent damage, verify pole plumbness, and check anchor bolts. Annual maintenance prevents most emergency calls.
A: Yes, in most cases. We can use specialized equipment to straighten leaning poles and tighten or replace loose anchor bolts. If the pole itself is bent or the base is cracked, replacement may be needed. We'll inspect and advise.
A: Commercial-grade LED fixtures on light poles are rated for 50,000 to 100,000 hours. At 12 hours per night, that's 11 to 22 years. However, lightning strikes and power surges can damage drivers prematurely. We offer surge protection installation.
A: Yes. We have underground fault locators to find breaks or shorts in wiring between poles. Depending on access, we can repair the damaged section or run new conduit and wire. We'll give you options and pricing.
