Service Mast Through The Eave
Where the mast passes through the roof, an old boot cracks and lets water follow the pipe inside. A new boot goes on before the coat.

North Middletown Metal Roof Coating Around Service Masts
Power lines at the roof edge need a call to the utility before anyone works the panels around them.
Many metal buildings carry a service mast through the eave, a meter base on the eave wall, or a weatherhead poking through the panels. Coating around them needs a clean flashing boot and safe clearance.
The Bourbon County area has more than one electric provider, so the name on your bill decides who to call. The City of Paris new resident packet lists Kentucky Utilities, Blue Grass Energy, and Clark Energy.
- Service masts flashed with a new boot
- Utility called before panel work
- Eave walls with meters planned around
Utility Details On North Middletown Roofs
Six utility details come up on steel roofs here.
Meter Base On The Eave Wall
Water running off the eave above a meter base is a problem. Gutters and trim there get checked and sealed.
Weatherhead Through The Panels
A weatherhead poking through the steel needs its own flashing. Gaps around it leak straight down the conduit.
Lines Over The Roof
Overhead lines near the eave limit where lifts and ladders go. The utility helps plan safe clearance.
Screws Near The Mast
Panels around a service mast get stepped on and pried during electrical work. Screws there loosen and need replacing.
Gutters Above Electrical Gear
Overflowing gutters above a meter base drop water right where it should stay clear. Clean, sealed gutters keep it away.

North Middletown Roof Coating Questions
Which electric provider should a North Middletown owner contact before roof work?
The one on your bill
Contact the provider printed on your electric bill, because the area has more than one. The City of Paris packet lists Kentucky Utilities, Blue Grass Energy, and Clark Energy, plus the city's own electric department.
That call comes before work near a service mast, meter base, or weatherhead.
Who issues permits for North Middletown roof work?
Bourbon County office
The Bourbon County listing names the county's local inspector, which covers Paris and the county. Confirm North Middletown coverage with that office first.
Moving a mast or conduit can also bring in electrical inspection.
Does the power have to be shut off for coating?
Only if planned
Usually not for coating alone. When work near a service mast needs it, the utility schedules any outage ahead of time.
Planning that early keeps the building running on the coating days.
What kind of boot goes around a service mast?
Flexible, sealed
A flexible flashing boot sized to the mast seals where it passes through the steel. Reinforced coating then ties the boot into the field.
Cracked old boots are the most common leak at a mast.
Can you coat around a weatherhead through the panels?
Yes, once flashed
Yes. The weatherhead gets its own flashing first, then the coating is worked around it with reinforcement.
Gaps around a weatherhead tend to leak straight down the conduit, so they get sealed before the field.
Who should call the utility, you or us?
Either works
Either works, though the account holder often gets answers fastest.
We tell you what to ask about: clearance near the roof edge and whether any outage is needed.
Do meter bases on the eave wall affect gutter work?
Plan around them
Gutters above a meter base get extra care so roof water drains away from it. Downspouts get routed to discharge clear of the electrical gear.
