REV takes pride in keeping your service running smoothly, maintaining hundreds of miles of lines connecting thousands of homes and businesses throughout Louisiana. Once the wiring enters your house, however, it becomes your responsibility to maintain it. Repairs to this wiring could be costly unless you subscribe to REV’s Wire Protection Plan.

With this Service Plan, for a small monthly fee, should repairs become necessary to the telephone, data and/or video wiring, modular jacks and/or outlets within your home, a REV technician will arrive and fix them.
