San Diego's Military Family Electrician
When you're deployed, the last thing you should worry about is the electrical in your home.
Specialty Electric was built on the same values that define military service: discipline, reliability, doing the job right the first time, and standing behind your work. We serve military families at every major San Diego installation — from Point Loma and 32nd Street to Camp Pendleton and Miramar — with the kind of no-nonsense professionalism that active duty families deserve.
Our Deployed Family Home Care Program is built specifically for families with a service member on deployment. We coordinate directly with the spouse, family designee, or FRO to ensure your home's electrical is safe, functional, and upgraded while your service member is away — so they come home to a better house than they left.

Electrical Services for San Diego's Service Members
From pre-deployment safety checks to whole-home upgrades during deployment — we do it all, with the 10% military discount on every job.
Deployed Family Home Care
Our flagship program for deployed families. We assess your home's electrical system, make priority repairs, and complete agreed upgrades — coordinating with your designated family contact throughout. Full written report provided when your service member returns.
Pre-Deployment Electrical Safety Check
Before deployment, we walk your home and check panel health, identify any code issues, test smoke and CO detectors, verify outdoor GFCI protection, and give you a written report. Peace of mind before you go — for you and for your family.
Ceiling Fan & Whole House Fan Installation
San Diego summers are hot. We install ceiling fans in every room and whole house fans that can cool your home without running the AC — a meaningful monthly savings on base housing or a rental near the installation.
LED Lighting Upgrades
Lower your SDG&E bill with a whole-home LED retrofit. Military families on fixed BAH often see meaningful monthly savings — we do the whole house or start with the highest-use rooms.
EV Charger Installation
Many service members drive EVs or are transitioning. We install Level 2 home EV charger circuits — properly permitted, correctly sized, and ready when you are.
BAH-Smart Home Improvements
Living off-base on BAH? Electrical upgrades like LED retrofits, whole house fans, and smart lighting controls can make a real difference in your monthly energy costs. We work fast and clean — no disruption to your family's routine.

Military Families Ask Us
Our Deployed Family Home Care Program is designed for military families with a service member currently on deployment. We work directly with the spouse, a designated family member, or the unit's Family Readiness Officer to assess and complete electrical work during the deployment period. We provide a full written report of all work completed, so your service member comes home to full documentation of every upgrade and repair made.
We offer 10% off all labor costs for active duty military, veterans, and their immediate families. We verify with a military ID, VA card, DD-214, or base access pass. The discount applies to all services — no minimums, no exclusions.
Absolutely. We're experienced working with military spouses who are managing the home solo during deployment. We communicate clearly, show up when we say we will, keep the work area clean, and never leave a job in a state that creates worry. We can also coordinate directly with a Family Readiness Officer for unit-level scheduling.
Yes. We serve communities surrounding every major San Diego installation: Point Loma, 32nd Street, Miramar, NAS North Island, Coronado, and Camp Pendleton. For Camp Pendleton families, we serve Oceanside, San Luis Rey, Vista, San Marcos, and Fallbrook.
For work within base housing (on-installation), electrical work is typically managed through the installation's housing office or Lincoln Military Housing. We primarily serve off-base private residences. However, we're happy to advise on what to request from your housing office and what you can legitimately request as a tenant upgrade.
Yes. We work with military families on scheduling and phased work when budget is a factor. We'd rather do the priority items right than have a family defer needed work. Talk to us about what matters most and we'll find a practical approach.
