    Several external sockets fitted.

    Posted 17 June

    Fantastic work by the company fitted three external IP rated sockets with the upmost care and precision. One fitted to the front through the wall and two in the rear garden including running the armoured cable. We are very happy with the quality of the workmanship and the quality of the work.

    Bedroom, garage and kitchen electrical work

    Posted 16 June

    Luke has done a few jobs for me now, including adding sockets into our bedroom, a new fuse board in both the house and garage (garage one from scratch) and a complete overhaul of our kitchen electrics including adding downlights, sockets, oven and hob circuit. All work is always carried out to a high standard and within the agreed time frames. My inlaws have also used luke for jobs at their house

    Great service at a good price.

    Posted 03 May

    Yet again used Luke to supply and fit another double socket in my potting shed and an outdoor double socket for the garden. He also fitted a one extractor fan in the bathroom. As always, the price he estimated was the price charged for the outdoor work and as he could use existing fittings in the loft (unknown when estimating the price was lower than his estimate. Luke and Leo were clean tidy and kept disruption to the absolute minimum. What else can i say about an excellent workman.

    Induction Hob & Cooker Installation

    Posted 16 April

    Luke was fantastic - friendly, professional, and a real pleasure to work with. He was incredibly adaptable and kept communication clear and consistent throughout our fast-paced kitchen project. He installed the new appliances, cutting out the space needed, adjusting some of the electrical wiring, and fitting everything alongside Leo, who was also brilliant. It’s lovely to see such a dedicated and skilled family business in action. We’d actually used Luke before for a smaller job, capping off a socket, which he handled quickly and at a fair price. They're our go-to now. Thanks so much!

My name is Luke Farquharson, I manage Farky The Sparky. This is an electrical contracting company. We are a small family outfit which means we are able to stay reasonably priced and are able to keep a close personal service. I am NICEIC registered and qualified to do part P installations. We also have Tom Freeman, who is also fully qualified.

We are smart, polite and keep our appointments. I am fully insured for this type of work and can contract in other building trades. We offer free quotes for jobs big and small. I have been a qualified electrician since 2011 and have gained many valuable skills, since then in 2014 I undertook two business courses to help further my knowledge and to give a better service to my customers. The builders and other trades we have working with us are suitably skilled, experienced and work to the high standards we require of them.
