I’ve used Southern Sparks Electrical Ltd for the last ten years. They are my preferred Electricians and I always recommend them. Richard and Danny are polite, punctual, and always explain what needs to be done with options if need be. They’ve completed a range of work, from replacing corroded wall sockets, investigating kitchen appliances tripping the circuit, a full electrical survey with remedial work and a replacement of fuse box through to changing light fittings. They’re great!
Immediate service to deal with an emergency. Will definitely use again. Highly recommended.
Danny arrived on time and cheerfully and efficiently carried out the task required which was to connect a replacement electrical hob. Job done!
A very competent firm. A pleasure to deal with them.
We use this local company for our annual PAT testing. They are always a pleasure to deal with and provide an excellent service promptly and at competitive rates. Their work is good quality and we are always satisfied with the job done.
I can highly recommend Southern Sparks. Danny and Richard have worked on my rental properties for 10 years. Their work has involved various installations and upgrades as well as the necessary landlord safety inspections. They work to the highest standards and their charges have always been reasonable.

Smart checks
Before you hire a builder
Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
