Do I need a licensed electrician for dock power installation?

Yes. Electrical work near water requires strict adherence to safety codes. A licensed electrician ensures everything is installed safely and correctly.

What is GFCI protection and why is it important for docks?

GFCI outlets shut off power if a fault is detected, helping prevent electric shock—especially critical around water.

Can you upgrade older dock wiring?

Absolutely. We frequently replace outdated or unsafe wiring systems and bring them up to current code standards.
