Boat Lift Power
Dedicated circuits, disconnects and controls for boat lifts and PWC lifts — sized for the motor and protected properly, so the lift starts every time.

Boat Dock Electrical Services
Everything electrical on the water — boat lift power, dock and pier lighting, shore power, shoreline feeders, repairs and inspections. From Lake Oconee to Lake Hartwell.
On the Water
We do all of it, not just the inspection
Plenty of electricians will come look at a dock. Fewer will run the shoreline, set the panel, wire the lift and light the whole thing — then come back and service it. We do the entire job, from the power at the house all the way out to the end of the dock.
Dock & Pier Lighting
Deck lights, piling and post lights, stair and walkway lighting, boathouse fixtures and underwater lights — so the dock is usable and safe after dark.
Shore Power & Outlets
Shore power for the boat, plus GFCI-protected receptacles for tools, pressure washers and lake toys — wired to hold up in a wet location.
Shoreline & Feeders
The run from the house to the water — trenching, conduit, feeders, and the dock panel and disconnect at the other end, sized for everything you'll plug in.
Boathouse Wiring
Lighting, fans, receptacles and sub-panels for boathouses and covered slips — plus rewiring the older ones that were never done right to begin with.
Inspections & Repairs
Buying a lake house, or something on the dock stopped working? We'll test what's there, find the fault, and tell you plainly what needs fixing and what doesn't.

Building a new dock?
Get us involved before the decking goes down — running conduit and boxes at framing stage is far cheaper and cleaner than chasing it in afterward.

Water changes the rules
A dock is one of the harshest places you can put electrical equipment. It is permanently damp, it moves, it takes direct sun and driving rain, and every connection out there is slowly trying to corrode. Wiring methods that are perfectly fine inside a garage will not last a season at the end of a dock.
It also carries its own code requirements. Dock receptacles need ground-fault protection. Metal parts need to be bonded so they can't become energised. Boxes, fittings and conductors all have to be rated for a wet location, and the shoreline run has to be protected properly on its way out to the water.
The reason all of that exists is simple: current leaking into the water around a dock is a genuine hazard to anyone swimming near it, and it is not something you can see. That is the part worth handing to somebody who does this work regularly rather than once in a while.
- Ground-fault protection where the code requires it
- Proper bonding and grounding of dock metal
- Wet-location rated boxes, fittings and conductors
- Corrosion-resistant hardware that survives the lake
