Claim This BusinessAbout De Soto Electric
De Soto Electric operates as a licensed electrical contractor serving Rockford and Wright County residents with a perfect 5-star rating across 45 verified client reviews. Founded and led by Wesley De Soto, a tradesperson who completed two years of technical training at Dunwoody before accumulating 16 years in electrical construction, the company handles both residential projects ranging from simple receptacle replacements to whole-home remodels and commercial work including tenant improvements and lighting system designs. Operating hours run Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 5 PM, with Saturday and Sunday available for scheduled emergencies.
What distinguishes De Soto Electric from neighboring contractors is the direct involvement of a seasoned master electrician on every service call, combined with the rare willingness to respond during holidays. Several reviewers specifically note receiving assistance on days when other area electricians were unavailable, and the business maintains availability for urgent situations requiring immediate attention. The company also provides specialized electric vehicle charger installation for leading manufacturers, a service growing in demand as Minnesota drivers transition to EVs.
Customers repeatedly commend Wes for arriving on time, respecting quoted budgets, and maintaining clean workspaces after completing work. One reviewer described a challenging project bringing power to a dock down a steep bluff, requiring hand-digging through difficult terrain, while another mentioned receiving detailed explanations of EV charging options despite having a finished home. A third noted how Wes responded promptly on a holiday and resolved the electrical issue while thoroughly answering questions.
