I’m a long established (20+ years) hard working independent narrowboat electrician and I take pride in my work. I’ve gained my knowledge, experience and reputation working with top quality Boat Builders and Boatyards and keep right up-to-date with the latest standards and developments in technology.
This website isn’t updated regularly. I post notable jobs on my instagram account exhibiting the work I’m getting involved in, and what you can expect as a customer. https://www.instagram.com/four_counties_marine_services/
I specialise in work associated with power:
- Lithium systems. Strong, reliable, rugged and safe LiFePO4 based power.
- Custom alternator & charging system upgrades: Primarily for lithium – enabling powerful and unstrained charging.
- External alternator regulators: Total alternator control. Superfast, optimised, reliable lithium charging with BMS integration.
- Top quality solar power installations: Panels mounted flat tightly against the roof on my stainless steel bracket set. 180 degree tilt option.
- 3.5 Travel Power generators.
I’m properly setup with the tools, equipment & knowledge to tackle the jobs that I specialise in and work from a well stocked van & workshop. All of my work is done to the highest professional standards using the best parts and equipment.
Based from my workshop near Leek, Staffordshire, my central location covers many popular canals and marinas. And I am fully insured to work in any Boatyard or Marina. **Feb 2022. Now insured to work on coastal Yachts**
I no longer offer heating or general electrical work and I’m concentrating on the electrical jobs that I specialise in.
Ed Shiers 07922 163072. fourcountiesmarineservices@gmail.com The best way to contact me is by calling: Please don’t email and generally I don’t respond to emails unless we’ve spoken first. If I don’t answer send a text or WhatsApp message and I always call back ASAP. It’s just me and I’m always busy so jobs have to be booked in months in advance.
