Highlights
“Very polite and efficient in replacing an old light fixture in the kitchen for a new T8 LED Batten. I can see why they call themselves Whizz Sparks because the guys are wizards at what they do. Whizz Sparks perform to a high standard and in a flash. I highly recommend Whizz Sparks.”
Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for Whizz Sparks Limited, including the highlights above. The 134 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
I was quoted £400 to replace two garden security lights and a switch to turn it on and off. The person attending was courteous and on time but the security light he had was motion sensor which I already had so only needed to replace one fitting. From arrival to completion took just under 45 minutes and I was charged £350, of which the light was probably around £30 so I paid £300 for 45 minutes! When agreed that only one light needs changing as they had the wrong one I should have asked for confirmation of revised cost, foolishly I trusted them to charge me for the time and material.

Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 19 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Electrical work in homes in England & Wales should be done by a registered competent person who can self-certify it meets the Part P safety rules. Check they're on the official register.
Check the electrical registerIn England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations. Confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done. It is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
