they are too short and with the deck, i can reach up and just touch them without any effort.

the power is fine, its another 5ft higher, but the cable (which i dont have) and telephone (which I use for dsl) are too damm low.

Its ok for the tele/cable wires to be reachable, ours are waist high, there is nothing to endanger fingers even with a fork -- nm - zeitgeist Sep 2, 11:22 1
- but generally the utility co owns the wires all the way to where their junction box attaches to your house and you are responcible from there -inside -- nm - zeitgeist Sep 2, 11:24

I'd start with the power company as in alot of cases they own the pole and look after the attachments, at least they should pioint you in the right - Beaker Sep 2, 10:27

    - Right. And you can't call the city today anyway. Might as well start with them. -- nm - Dano Sep 2, 10:27
