    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!

    Outside Power Supply and Internal Lighting

    Posted 27 March

    Luke (Farky the Sparky) recently installed an outside power socket and replaced some existing lighting to bedroom furniture! The quality of work was excellent and Luke is a very reliable and friendly electrician! I have no hesitation recommending him and would definitely use him for any future electrical work! Thank You!

    Both Luke and brother Tom bent over backwards to help me out on Xmas Eve and also later to finally fix fault that knocked out most of my kitchen sockets. Great highly recommended service

    Bathroom heater and new ceiling lights

    Posted 22 November 2024

    All the work carried out by Farky the Sparky (Luke) was carried out very professionally, the end job is just amazing. It has given our bathroom so much more light with new 4 Spot lights, and now with a new wall heater we have comfort and light. I would highly recommend Luke for any electrical work.

    Electrical fault finding & repair.

    Posted 10 October 2024

    Luke was really helpful by text to see if problem could be resolved without him coming out. He did have to come, identified the problem & fixed it for a fair price. Not our first visit and always happy with Luke's friendliness & workmanship. Thanks!

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.
