Hired Desert General to rewire a 240 plug (was not done properly), install a hardwired EV charger, and general cleanup of our panel. Brandon was very responsive with my questions and with providing the quote. Joe and Zach did the work - they were on time, worked quickly and efficiently, kept everything clean, and were total professionals. Would definitely hire them again for any electrical needs. read more

Brandon and his team were great! Very professional, communication was easy and fast! I will highly recommend them!

Brandon and his team did a great job installing two outlets in my bathrooms. What set them apart from other quotes I got were the questions I was asked about how the outlets were going to be used. If it were not for these questions, I could've ended up having someone tie into an outlet that did not have the proper breaker on it. The smart toilet draws quite a bit of amps and it needed to be on a different line to the panel than others were going to wire it up. Brandon was also very responsive to questions and Joe (who did the work) with friendly and accommodating to things I wanted to achieve with looks. read more

Brandon and Sergio were amazing to work with. They came out immediately on a holiday when others were just responding while They were working on our issue. They were communicative, explained what our issue was, and available for a follow up. Also did all the safety checks to make sure we didn't have a bigger issue in our breaker box. This is a remote property for us so finding somebody easy to work with 3hrs away gave us so much peace of mind. read more

Fantastic experience. Communication was clear and easy from start to finish, scheduling was smooth, and they were very accommodating. The journeyman they sent, Joe, was excellent--on time, professional, and clearly skilled. He installed our chandelier quickly and precisely, treated our home with care, and answered questions with confidence. High-quality work, zero stress. Would absolutely use them again and highly recommend. read more

I was so impressed with the service I received from Desert General Electric. I originally did a search on Yelp to find assistance for my ceiling light in the laundry room. I received a quick reply from Desert General Electric and scheduled an appointment without difficulty. Brandon arrived to the home on time. He diagnosed the problem, fixed it and I think was finished within 30 minutes. I now have a working light! I will definitely be using them if I ever have issues in the future. Thank you!!!!!! read more

The quote was very fair and extremely well worth the cost! read more

We were having electrical issues in the home, intermittently losing power and had to replace the main breaker twice within a year. I had a few electricians come take a look, provide their opinion and bid to fix. They all had the same: the circuit breaker panel needed to be replaced. An unexpected ouch to the wallet! In the end, I chose Desert General Electric. For one, Desert General Electric is a verified business on Yelp and backed by the Yelp $2,500 guarantee. I received a quick response to my Yelp project query and booked the appointment to inspect the project. I found Desert General Electric to be friendly, knowledgeable and organized when we met. We discussed the job, the timeline and an estimate was emailed to me shortly after meeting. The bid included the stucco repair and paint that would be needed from knocking out the current panel and enlarging the space for the new panel. That was awesome because the other bids did not include stucco repair and paint so I would have had to seek additional bids plus coordinate the additional repairs for the job prior to final inspection. I don't have time for that. Desert General Electric was already ahead of the game which was a huge plus - no extra work for me - they were taking responsibility for the whole job, start to finish. Upon signing the bid, the permit process began immediately and I was updated on the permitting process. Here's where above and beyond come into play. Our house lost power again during the permitting process while I was out of town, yet my spouse and dog were at home. The summer heat was relentless. I sent a message with a heads up that we lost power and asked if we were close to starting the project. Understanding the predicament, Desert General Electric went to my house to check out the issue. They had the electric back on and the AC was running. Above and beyond, especially on a Sunday and before the official project began. That told me that Desert General Electric are good people. During day one of the project, a potential issue with the landscape valves that could result in not passing final inspection was pointed out to me. I appreciated that suggestions were made to fix the issue, rather than just stating the problem. Issue fix, inspection passed. I recommend Desert General Electric. Each person, including the stucco and paint contractors, were easy to communicate with, responsive to text messages, on time, friendly, made good on their promises and offered a variety of payment methods. read more

What a great experience. We have used Brandon and his team on several electrical projects some large, some small. Brandon is very responsive. I usually get calls or emails back within the hour.

I contacted Brandon for installing a EV charger in our garage and moving a receptacle for a chandelier in our dining room. He was pretty busy so it took a while but he came and scoped it out and then sent his two guys to do the job in one day. He had to increase the initial estimate because access to the electric box was not as simple as he originally thought. But we were happy with the results. I did have to replaster the holes that were cut for the job myself. It would be great if he could recommend or have a helper who could do that so the owner doesn't have to break the job up in pieces. read more

I've known Brandon, the owner, since before he launched his business, and I can confidently say his work ethic is unmatched.

Kudos and thanks to Brandon. My landscape lighting went out and, after trying the app's tech support for assistance (without success), I called Desert General Electric. Brandon picked up and, after I explained the problem, he suggested that we FaceTime to diagnose and fix the problem. He zeroed in on a GFCI issue and literally had me go all the way through the house to find an outlet which needed to be reset. Finally, we found the culprit, which I reset. The reset got the app and landscape lighting working again. Brandon said that he was trying to save me a service call, which I really appreciate. So Brandon and Desert General Electric have just become my new electrician! Thanks again. read more

Impressive! On Christmas weekend's Sunday Brandon saved our lives. Talked us through a minor change in Breakers and fixed all electrical issues that could have been quite expen$ive....do not hesitate to use this vendor and he is kind to Seniors at Sun City Palm Desert. Phenomenal! Will G & James C. read more

I had a small job of changing out the electric light fixture in my bar, as well as moving the plug and switch higher up the wall. I thought it would be hard finding an electrician with such a small job. I called Randy at Desert, General Electric and he immediately returned my call. We scheduled someone to come out to my house the following day to give me a quote. I approved the quote on a Monday and he scheduled me for the following day, Tuesday from 1 to 3 PM. His team arrived on time and did a wonderful job. They were very friendly. As soon as the crew left. Randy texted me to see if I was satisfied. That is the kind of service i was looking for; someone who takes pride in their family business, I would highly recommend this company. read more

Timely and professional hope to see someone today as stated thank you for your timely response

Outstanding quality, fair prices, quick and very personable service. I know who to call the next time I need electrical work done!

Brandon was terrific - he fixed three problems that I was having trouble getting fixed. Totally figured out the electrical system at our home. Strongly recommend. read more

So Brandon is an extremely ethical guy. My breaker tripped to my garage door. I reset it, which is about the extent of my electrical repair skill. I called him, and he answered right away. He did a little troubleshooting over the phone, and it was an easy fix. He was friendly and even said, "That saves you the cost of a service call." He could have easily come out and made some quick cash off me, but he didn't. That's pretty awesome if you ask me. If I have any other issues, he's the first call I'm making. read more

Brandon is the best!! He answered his phone on a Sunday night at 8pm! And came out that same night to help us in an emergency. He went so far "above and beyond" in every way. My old electrician told me I needed a panel upgrade of $5,000 to $7,000 but Brandon and the SCE utility person told be a simple swap out of my existing blown circuit was all I needed at a cost of under $400. Thank God I found him here on Yelp or I would've blown a fortune. Great work. Great communication. Even showed us how to replace the circuit breaker ourselves if it happens again. 10 out of 10. I've found my NEW electrician. Thank you Brandon!! read more

I highly recommend Desert General Electric for all of your home/business electrical needs! The owner, Brandon, is super knowledgeable and friendly. We had Brandon install an RV 50amp pedestal in our backyard and a whole home surge protector at our breaker box. He and his worker, Sergio, were professional, efficient, polite, and more than fair in price. It was a big job and no picnic in this desert heat! With all of the power outages in our area, I decided to have a whole home surge protector installed to protect our A/C units and appliances. I recommend adding this to your home. It could save you thousands of dollars and Desert General Electric will take good care of you. I'm so happy to have found an electrician I can rely on for future jobs/needs. 5 STARS INDEED! read more

Brandon is the best. As soon as I met him, I knew he was the right guy to work with. He redid ALL our overhead lighting. Not only did he complete the work on time and within budget, but he had awesome creative lighting ideas that we wound up implementing that no one else had even mentioned to us. He is competent, ethical, his expertise is beyond question, AND he is freakin' creative. I am so glad we worked with Brandon instead of the other vendors we were considering. Brandon's work exceeded all my expectations! Thank you Brandon. read more

Desert General Electric - The overhead lights that Brandon installed in our showroom. - Electricians Near Me

Brandon was extremely professional, kind and knowledgable about our electrical needs. We had an RV charger to install. He was super communicative from the beginning, came out to do an in person estimate, and was well prepared and efficient on the day of installation. Once he was in our electrical panel, he even offered to clean up a few other things that he noticed, just because he was there. I can't recommend Brandon enough for the quality of his work, fair pricing and professional work ethic. So happy we went with him - and we're happy to have found the electrician we needed to add to our house maintenance/project list. Will definitely call on him again. Thank you, Brandon! read more

Great service, friendly and efficient. Reasonably priced. They went above and beyond to assist me.

We had multiple outlets go out at my father's house. I know a little bit about electric (meaning just a smidge above nothing), but I couldn't work it out. I called several companies who could come out next week, but we needed it today for medical equipment. I called Desert General Electric and Brandon answered right away. He was booked for the day but committed to be at the house between 5 and 5:30. He was upfront with his pricing and was punctual. He found another affected outlet and fixed it as well. He was polite, clean, and friendly. The price he quoted me over the phone was the price he billed me for. I will definitely call this company again the next time we have an electrical issue! read more
