It's Time to Schedule Your FREE Dock Inspection!

Spring will be here soon which means it will be time to start your spring maintenance tasks very soon! The wintertime is a great time to start planning what you need to do once spring gets here. You never know when a warm day will come unexpectedly, so having that plan in place can help give you some ideas for what to do when warm weather strikes. One thing you could do while it's still cold is scheduling a dock inspection at the Lake of the Ozarks. Harsh temperatures can cause problems with your dock's electrical system and it's critical to have it inspected yearly. Read on to get a few dock safety to keep in mind from Catalyst Electric! 




Inspect Conduit 

You should inspect your conduit frequently. Check for things like tears in the conduit. If there is a tear in your conduit, your wires are exposed and could be dangerous if they come into contact with water or the medal dock frame. Taping the conduit back together is NOT a good way to fix the issue. This will not fix your issue and is still dangerous. If you notice a tear, to ensure your safety is not at risk, turn off the dock's electricity and call a professional electrician at the Lake of the Ozarks!

Hire a Professional Electrical Contractor 

A lot of people think they can fix issues that arise on their own. While there are a lot of home projects that you are more than capable of tackling on your own, electricity needs to be taken seriously. When the electricity is located near the water, it adds an added danger to the mix. Any time you think there is an issue with your dock, contact only the best electrician at the Lake of the Ozarks to fix your issue. Don't risk your friends, families, or your safety this summer. If the electrical current were to get into the water where there are nearby swimmers, electric shock could occur. Avoid this by calling Catalyst Electric with all your electrical issues! 

Free Dock Inspections! 

You really have no excuse for your dock to not have a proper inspection because Catalyst Electric does FREE dock inspections at the Lake of the Ozarks. Sometimes, you can't always see issues on the outside. When we come to inspect your dock, we can check for the things that you don't know to look for. For example, the original person who installed the wiring in your dock could have installed the wire incorrectly and the conduit hides the evidence. If the wiring is not installed properly, and it comes into contact with the wood of the dock or metal frame if the dock is not properly grounded it could energize the entire dock. This is why is so important to get your dock inspected often!

It’s not too early to start thinking about your yearly dock inspection! At Catalyst Electric, we offer free dock inspections at the Lake of the Ozarks. We will be gearing up for our spring dock inspections very soon, and now is a great time to get on our schedule!
