Southern California's Electrical & Lighting Experts — Now Serving Solana Beach
Solana Beach's blend of beachside casual and upscale residential makes it one of North County San Diego's most desirable communities — and its homes reflect that character. Specialty Electric brings licensed expertise and genuine design sensibility to Solana Beach's coastal cottages, Cedros Design District-adjacent properties, and newer custom builds.
We're more than electricians. Through our Fan Diego showroom partnership, we bring direct access to premium ceiling fans and lighting from brands like Fanimation, Kichler, and Progress Lighting. The result is a smarter, more cohesive experience — design guidance and installation from one trusted team.

Solana Beach has its own City Building Department with a permit process distinct from the County. We handle permit applications and inspection coordination directly. Solana Beach's proximity to the coast means outdoor electrical work requires attention to moisture-rated specifications — something we address on every project.
