About PateCO Electric

PateCO Electric in Clanton, Alabama, brings a genuinely uncommon combination to the table: licensed electrical work alongside tree services. Clanton sits at the heart of Chilton County, known throughout Alabama for its peach orchards and Interstate 65 corridor. Trees growing too close to power lines, exterior electrical panels, or outbuildings are a real and common problem for rural and suburban property owners throughout this region. Having an electrician who also does tree work means potentially dealing with utility clearance issues and electrical concerns in a single conversation rather than coordinating two separate contractors.

Services & Process

PateCO handles tree services including removal, trimming, and clearing trees or limbs that have grown too close to power lines, meters, or other electrical infrastructure. On the electrical side, they're equipped to assess and address issues that tree contact or storm damage can cause, including damaged service entrances, exterior wiring, and outbuilding electrical systems. This cross-discipline capability is particularly useful on rural Chilton County properties where trees near power drops or shop buildings are a routine issue. Lot clearing for new construction or agricultural use is another area where the combination of tree work and electrical knowledge adds practical value.

Service Area

PateCO Electric serves Clanton and surrounding Chilton County, including Thorsby, Jemison, and Maplesville. Their location along the I-65 corridor also puts them within reasonable distance of portions of Shelby and Autauga counties. For specific service area questions, call (205) 258-8755.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why would I hire an electrician who also does tree work instead of two separate companies?
When a tree is growing into or near electrical lines, a service entrance, or a meter, you're dealing with a safety issue that involves both trades at once. Having one company that understands both means better communication, safer sequencing of work, and one less contractor to coordinate.
Can PateCO trim or remove trees that are touching power lines on my Clanton property?
Trees in contact with utility distribution lines are typically handled by the utility company itself, but trees near your service drop, meter, or private electrical infrastructure are a different matter. PateCO's electrical background makes them well-suited to assess and address those situations safely.
What electrical issues can storm damage to trees cause?
Falling limbs or trees can damage the service entrance where utility power connects to your home, tear down weatherheads, damage exterior conduit, and in serious cases pull meter sockets loose from the wall. These situations require an electrician to inspect and repair before power can safely be restored.
Do I need to call my power company before having a tree removed near electrical lines?
If the tree is touching or very close to the main utility lines running down the street, yes, you should notify your utility provider first. Alabama Power typically requires that their lines be de-energized or handled by their crews before any tree work happens in that zone.
Can PateCO help with lot clearing for a new build in Chilton County?
Yes, lot clearing is a service that benefits from having both tree and electrical expertise on site, particularly if the lot has existing structures with power running to them. Knowing how to safely handle electrical disconnects before clearing begins is an important part of that process.
How do I know if the tree damage to my property after a storm is also an electrical hazard?
If any fallen limbs or trees are in contact with wiring, near your meter, or have pulled on any part of your electrical service, treat it as a hazard and stay away from that area. Call both your utility company and a qualified electrician before anyone attempts to move the debris.
