Mountain Valley Electric · Rigby, ID · Since 2014

Zach Giles started Mountain Valley Electric in 2014 with 20+ years in the trade and a single rule: be the electrician you'd want for your own family. Today MVE is one of the largest in-house crews in Eastern Idaho.

GM Matt Ringel runs the day-to-day, with 30+ technicians driving four branded vans across Idaho Falls, Rigby, Rexburg, Blackfoot, and Jackson WY. Every job, whether residential, commercial, or industrial, runs through the same 4-step process: consultation, written proposal, install, and follow-up.
