Rideout Electric
Company Overview
We can take care of all your electrical needs, whether residential, commercial, or agricultural. I possess the expertise and skills to ensure your project is completed correctly on the first attempt.
Right after high school, my father was an electrical engineer in aerospace and was about to experience a pay decrease. He chose to start his own business, and I joined him; I gained valuable insights from him and took classes at Palomar College. In our first year, we participated in the transition of downtown from overhead to underground electrical systems. We approached every downtown business and managed to convert 70% of them from overhead to underground. Two decades ago, my father stepped back, and I have taken over the business since then.
In 1964, I came to Fallbrook and completed my education in local schools, graduating in 1972.

Recommended Customer Reviews

We are in the middle of a home remodel and needed an electrician. Our neighbors recommended Dave Rideout. Dave returned our call right away, came out timely and did a great job. We have had him out a few times as we work our way through each room and each time our experience has been the same. We still have plenty of work ahead for Dave as we complete our remodel. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, dependable electrician we can highly recommend Dave Rideout.

Dave is great. He gets the job done efficiently and takes away your problems. I have used him multiple times.

We contacted Rideout Electric to add a 240 line for a kitchen induction cooktop, and add an outlet in our pantry. The work was scheduled, and David and Kevin arrived at exactly the scheduled time. They were friendly and efficient, and completed the work in a timely manner. We highly recommend Rideout Electric!

David and his assistant, Kevin came to the house to add 240 (60 amp) wiring for our new hot tub. They arrived on time and got the job done quickly. Both of them were great at answering our questions and listened to our requests. They did a neat and clean job with the wiring around the house. Very pleased.

I have had Dave out on several occasions. He shows up on time and ready to work. His prices are reasonable, he is neat and does a professional job. In October our little dog was attacked in the back yard by a coyote. I called Dave and he came out and installed outside motion light detectors so I could see movement in the yard. Before he left he made sure that the lights were set properly and said he would come back and adjust them for me if something changed. I have recommended him to all my family and friends.

I had an electrical issue with my house and called Rideout Electric at the suggestion of a neighbor of mine who also had a positive experience. He came out, quickly diagnosed my problem, fixed it, all for a good price.
Would definitely call again!
