CONSTRUCTION
Building a new home, barn, shop or business? Whatever you are planning to build, FPU understands the construction process and the multiple deadlines. Due to the current supply chain issues, it is more important than ever to notify us well in advance of your new project. FPU will meet with you and your contractors on-site, supply an engineering design, provide an estimated Aid-to-Construction (ATC) cost, purchase necessary equipment and supplies if not already in stock and build the electrical infrastructure to your new construction. You will need to complete paperwork for the new service, pay estimated ATC, pay service fees and pay security deposits, either in the office or on-line prior to the build process.

CALL 811 BEFORE DIGGING
Damage to underground utilities can occur while doing typical home improvement projects like installing a fence, planting a tree or putting up a mailbox.
Avoid putting your family or your community at risk by calling 811 or by visiting tenn811. com to submit a locate request ticket at least 3 days prior to digging.
It’s free, it’s easy and it’s the law.
