JF Reno and Property Management

Doing a bit of landscaping for a client. Saw a rag tiled around the electrical service. Removed it and saw this nicely hidden gap. The clients (not knowledgeable about repairs etc) bought the house 3 years ago with no home inspection. Becha they did not know about this. This is the Manitoba Hydro side of the meter. Anyone want to comment on who is responsible for repairing this.... Hydro or home owner? Apparently it's the home owner that is ultimately responsible for repairs.

What ya all thinking we are building? Razed flower beds? Kids beds? Beds for the homeless! Nope staining oak doors!
