Electrical reviews in Fairfax, Virginia

Victor was timely and very knowledgeable. He took the time to explain what he was doing and answer any questions that I had. It was a very pleasant experience. Based on this I would recommend this company.

Victor provided exceptional customer service. He arrived on time, answered all of our questions and was so pleasant to work with. Great job Victor!

Victor was professional and communicated each step throughout the process. He provided great information and, as a new home owner, I needed the friendly support.

Excellent! The technician Victor came within the two hour window I was given. He was professional and courteous. I will happily request this company again if I need electrical services again. I highly recommend this company.

The most knowledgeable electrician in Virginia. Timely, Trustworthy and good prices. Will always use Riddle Electric for any electrical issues I have.

Victor was amazing! He knew exactly what to do to get the job done fast and efficiently. I would recommend his company any day.

Forrest and Riddle electric are the worst. They are very dishonest in their business practice. he took our money without fixing the issue. I do not recommend them at all. !

Timely, Half the Price of others, and professional the whole way through.

Forrest is a very incompetent and dishonest electrician. He charged me to fix my lights and they are not fixed. He took my money and ran away. I do not recommend Forrest and Riddle electric to anyone. If you don’t want to be scammed , stay away from them.

Just had my repair work done by Victor. Knowledgeable, professional and friendly. He arrived on time and he was very informative and patient explaining the issue to me. He let me know the estimate of cost, which was very reasonable, and explained the the repair process to me. I would highly recommend.

Forrest and Victor have been out multiple times to our old townhome and our new house. Any job small(adding a recessed outlet) to big(a full panel/service upgrade) have been done professionally and cleanly. They do a great job and have earned a lifetime customer for all things Electric!

I usually don’t complain here, but Riddle Electric is the worst electrician company you can find in the area. Forest (the owner) is very dishonest and incompetent. He is very disrespectful and just talking big. He charged me very high price for the lights that he couldn’t even fix. I do Not recommend them at all!

The technician with this company was really great. He showed up at the right time and was competent in completing the tasks. He also offered helpful advice. I have a real problem with the person who made the appointment. When I mentioned that I learned of this company via my homeowners warranty, he complained about having too much work from them. When the technician didn't charge me enough to meet the warranty charge, he got upset when I offered to send a check. He even lied to me about the warranty expectations of immediate payment.

Contacted my home warranty company because my condo had a power outage. The contractor they gave me was Riddle Electric. It was urgent as the A/C was affected. (OUT)
Technician came out diagnosed the problem. Said the breaker panel was getting only one leg of voltage and told me it was the responsibility of the local utility company. The utility responded and after analysis replied their area of responsibility was good. Called Riddle and asked them to return to give the problem a second look as the ticket had not been closed out and the person on the line responded they couldn't do anything. Just took the money and ran. I called my home warranty company and asked for a different contractor even though I have to pay the service fee a second time. I prefer that to the bad customer service I received from Riddle Electric.

Victor came out and addressed all the issues that I had... he went above and beyond the call of service to ensure that everything associated with my problem was in order before proceeding. He was detailed and explained things clearly and concisely. Vic is a true asset to the company I would highly recommend Vic and Riddle Electric to anyone. Great job and thank you Vic.

Victor came by to repair some switches that were acting funny. He knew exactly what was going on as soon as I showed him and was able to replace them. He also gave me a call about 30 minutes prior to his arrival to let me know a closer time within the 2 hour window of when he would be here which was very helpful.

Victor came to our house & installed recessed lighting on the lower level of a split foyer. He called before he came, was timely, nice, and extremely intelligent. He spent time mapping out the best lighting grid and quickly overcame ductwork clashing issues within the ceiling. The finished product looks and operates great.

Riddle is a top notch electrician service! They performed many services on our home, including a installing a brand new electrical breaker box, rewired all electrical outlets, fixed a short behind a wall, repaired two fan installs, and fixed about 15 of our recessed light installs. These electricians “saved us” from a potentially very dangerous situation / fire hazard. We had live wires behind many of our fixtures from a GC who had illegally installed many of them when we originally moved into our house. Riddle not only repaired our home and made it safe to live in, but also professionally advised us on many issues. Always on time and even stayed late hours to finish the jobs. Would recommend Riddle in a heartbeat. Best in the region!

Like all the great reviews, Victor was our electrician and we were very pleased with his service, knowledge, and overall professionalism! He was on time, tolerated our crazy dog, and really took the time to educate us on the issues. Without question, we would definitely recommend Riddle Electric Service, LLC. Amazing Service!

The gentleman from Riddle Electric was extremely knowledgable, explained what the likely issue was, verified his assessment, and provided us with a recommendation on bulbs (after confirming our wiring was good to go). He provided the why to his recommendation and we appreciate the transparency and professionalism of Riddle Electric. Thank you!

Riddle electric was the second electrical company that came to my house to try to fix an electrical issue I was having through my home insurance company. The first electrical company that was sent said my meter was broken and that’s not covered by the insurance so I had my energy company come out and checked everything and they stated they didn’t believe that was the case so i disputed with the insurance and they sent riddle electric out for a second opinion riddle stated it was my panel which I also agreed with because I also had a third party to check the issue. After going back and forth with issuance the owner of riddle electric Forrest got the insurance company to agree the panel was the issue. Victor was sent out to do the work which was replacing my entire panel. Victor did an outstanding job he was super helpful and explained everything to us in detail. I definitely recommend this company and recommend victor for any job. I will be contacting them again for any electrical issues or upgrades in the future. Thank you Forrest and Victor you guys are a great team and I appreciate all the hard work.
