I had a number of light fittings that weren't working and, on a recommendation from a friend, called Bright Spark. Karen called in to evaluate and price the work the same day and sent one of her colleagues, to carry it out before the end of the week. It was a very impressive response and the work was done to an excellent standard. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bright Spark, and it's reassuring to know such a reliable firm exists the next time I need an electrician.

We were very pleased with the recent electrical work which was carried out in a professional manner by your electrician and will certainly use your company again when future needs arise. Also I would be happy to recommend your services to any of our friends.

"I have had Bright Sparks at my property twice in the last six months to complete some electrical work. I have been blown away by the innovative efficient way I am communicated with the efficiency and ease of the process. The work has been carried out to a more than satisfactory standard and I found it to be extremely competitively priced. It is by far the best experience I have had with any service provider in forever. Thanks guys."

I just wanted to say how amazing your customer service is. You are the first (and only?) trade company that communicates and is efficient from my experience. I really appreciate texts, and emails giving me updates. It means I don’t have the frustration of having to stay in for the electrician all day and waste my time. You run an excellent service. Your electrician was great and very quick. We will definitely be using you again.

Karen runs a great company. She is that very rare breed of taking care, respecting and rewarding her employees. In turn, Terry who carried out our work showed due care and attention and completed works with such professionalism. He interacted with my inquisitive little boy who may, one day may, become an electrician - he certainly had a great role.model to follow!
