"Max a tail gunner electric did an amazing job fixing multiple faulty switches in my new home and configured much of the electrical box that was done incorrectly the first time. He was prompt on time and his team was amazing. They answered all my questions and finish the job in a timely manner. Much better than expected. I would definitely recommend using them for any of your electrical needs. Thanks max"

"B and C Electrical were awesome! Super professional and really friendly. They showed up right on time, made sure everything was cost-effective, and actually fixed the problems we’d been having with our electrical panel for years. They did a much better job than others who came out before, and now everything works the way it’s supposed to. Couldn’t be happier with their work — I highly recommend them!"

"The installer, Justin, was clean, polite and professional. He phoned to advise us that he would be about 30 minutes early for our appointment since his earlier installation was accomplished ahead of schedule. When the installation was complete, Justin vacuumed his work area to assure that any debris that may have escaped the drop cloth he'd placed would be picked up. He then instructed us on the operation of the fans and left us with written instruction as well.



The weather temperature has been in the high 80 to mid 90 range. We are amazed at how well our 1,735' condo cooled off after the very first night of the whole house fan usage! Our daughter and son-in-law had a three fan system installed in their home,  which is almost twice the size of ours, a couple of months ago and are also very pleased. Their cooling bill has been reduced to less than half of what it would normally be. The fans are paying for themselves!



We would not hesitate to recommend the Quiet Cool Fan or Direct Electric Company (951) 200-5262, who did the delivery and installation. We reside in San Pedro, our daughter and her family are in Temecula, so DEC provides service to a wide area.

"I needed 2 ceiling fans installed in areas without existing lighting or wiring. I searched Home Advisor and found JC Electric. Joe (owner) had great communication, sent calendar invites for the appointments and sent a confirmation text the morning of the appt. Nariel, the technician, was outstanding! Polite, professional, respectful, and explained the process. More importantly, he tolerated my dog Zoe who feels everyone is there to her and she wanted to be his helper. Haha Joe texted me when the job was complete to see how everything went. I also immediately received an email with my receipt for payment. I will definitely be using JC Electric for future electrical needs."

FAQs for electrical service projects in Escondido, CA

In some states and municipalities, licensed and registered handypersons can change a light fixture and do minor electrical work. However, you should check with your state and local licensing boards before hiring a local handyperson. In most cases, it’s safer and more practical to hire an electrician for this job. It may cost more, but hiring a licensed electrician means they’ll get the work done to code.

Special light fixtures, known as damp-rated light fixtures, are recommended in bathrooms, particularly if they're near damp areas like showers and over the bathtub. However, in most locations, they’re not a strict requirement. For safety and longevity, damp-rated fixtures are a better choice. If you work with a lighting contractor in your area, they may be able to recommend the right kinds of fixtures for your space.

Yes, it’s possible to run a second light fixture to a switch, meaning the light switch would control more than one light fixture. Several factors can impact whether it’s possible and how much it will cost. In many cases, it may be easier and more affordable for the contractor to install independent light switches. Talk to your electrician about your idea to get their feedback.
