I can't find the words that will praise enough the professional and friendly experience I had tonight with Sparky Nearby. So helpful he asked me to take pictures of the switch board, then discussed exactly what is likely to have caused the lights to go off, looked up the building on the internet, asked about the floor power and main switchboard room downstairs then was able to guide me on how to fix the problem myself in minutes. Went out of his way to save my time and money. Was more than happy to do a night visit but only if all other options didn't work. That saved me hundreds of dollars! If I ever (or when i) need an electrician again I know who am I calling. Thanks very much! Very highly recommend! ~ Ty
Have used Tom and his team a number of times now and each time, he has done a professional job and left everything clean and tidy. As we have a 2 storey house with no above ceiling access, we have had him do various jobs such as sourcing special size spotlights that are now hard to get in order to match some existing ones, as well as giving him some challenging jobs with installing three very large lights for us at heights of 11 ft and 15 ft. He has also removed two other heavy pendant lights for us and plugged and plastered the holes so it was ready for painting. We are extremely pleased with Tom and his staff and he is not only very skilled but a pleasure to have around. Would recommend him highly. ~ ann m
Tom and the remarkable team at Sparky Nearby consistently deliver exceptional service. I've entrusted them with multiple projects spanning several years, and without fail, they have exceeded my expectations every time. Whether it's tackling complex tasks like rewiring an entire unit complex or addressing simpler issues such as fixing light fixtures, switches, and power points, their workmanship consistently maintains the highest standard of quality. Having relied on their expertise for numerous electrical needs, I wholeheartedly recommend Sparky Nearby. Their professionalism, reliability, and top-notch work make them the go-to choice for any electrical job, big or small. ~ Theo M
Tom, I just wanted to write to you to thank you for the fantastic work you and your team did with electrical work on my house. It was so refreshing to find trades people who do not just properly understand customer service but also translate this into actual work. You and your team arrived in the agreed time range of an hour, were clean, tidy, helpful and friendly. You also arranged for Sam to return later to complete the job when I was not successful in getting the correct light fitting the first time around. I would be only too happy to recommend your company to other customers. Please pass on my thanks to the rest of the team and I wish you all the best for your company in future. ~ James D
I actually had some communication issues initially, I was quoted to replace a couple of downlights and fix a switch but after the job was complete the invoice I received was double the amount quoted. When I called to query this it was clear there had been a communication issue when the tradesmen were doing the work and Tom very graciously honoured the original quoted amount. The tradesmen who did the work very professional and did great work, but the handling of the billing issue really amazed me. Excellent customer service, quality work and a high level of professionalism. I would definitely recommend. ~ Paige B
The work I needed done was handled absolutely perfect, I couldn't be happier with the job. From the minute Tom & William arrived to give me the initial quote, being transparent from the get-go and offering me options and recommendations of scenarios that would need to be assessed I thought was incredibly professional. The workmanship was top-notch and the job was done much quicker than expected. Great workmanship and very efficient and above all a pleasure to do business with. If I could give more than 5 starts I absolutely would. Thanks again for the tremendous work. ~ Dion C
Exceptionally good service from the initial contact on the phone, to booking the job in quickly and sending over the electrician within 48 hours of me raising the job with my real estate. It was great to see a female electrician too, who was extremely professional and meticulous, who arrived when they said she would and provided a courtesy call on the way, nice and friendly with the issue quickly fixed with an awesome result. Also a massive fan of how there was zero mess afterwards from the work carried out. Thanks so much Claire who was our electrician. ~ Steph
Sparky Nearby recently completed a full re-wiring of my house in Maroubra…they were brilliant! Dealing with Claire was an absolute delight, totally professional and accomodating. Claire, Tom and the team provided outstanding service. Punctual, responsive and completed all work to a high standard. Nothing was too much trouble as they navigated around my young Border Collie, my temperamental cats and even delivered my take away! I thoroughly recommend Sparky Nearby and will always use them in the future. Thank you ~ Karen P
I have been using Tom’s company, Sparky Nearby for 6 years now and can not recommend them highly enough! I have needed some major electronically work and also smaller jobs and have always found them to be both efficient and really reasonably priced. I really like that when the guys say they will be at my place at a certain time, they are! I’ve dealt with lots of tradies both with renovations and buildings and Sparky Nearby tops the list! If you need electricians look no further you’ll be happy you got these guys on board! ~ Amanda M
I needed some electrical work done (new downlights, required TV to be wallmounted, dimmers on all lights, power points installed and switches moved). I had no idea how much this would cost and wanted a quote first. Sparky Nearby came out and quoted the job free of charge and no obligation. I went ahead with the work and could not be more happier. 10/10 for service, price and quality of work. I would recommend Tom and his team to anyone requiring electrical work. ~ Mark S
I recently had some electrical work completed by Sparky Nearby. Claire was amazing. Punctual, professional, responsive to my needs and effectively got the job done, even when it meant climbing up into a tiny, dusty roof cavity. All care was taken to protect the working areas from any mess and Claire was quick to clean up afterwards. The quality of the products used was also evident. I would definitely recommend Sparky Nearby to anyone needing any type of electrical work carried out. ~ Sharon G
I contacted Sparky Nearby to replace my bathroom exhaust fan and on a separate occasion to replace my kitchen rangehood. The first was completed almost immediately as the oart was in the van. The second job took longer because I wanted a specific model rangehood exhaust fan. This took longer to get but once in the job was completed quickly and I have been happily using both exhaust fans ever since. I highly recommend Sparky Nearby for all electrical services that can provide. ~ Peter D
The guys did a fantastic job with my apartment kitchen renovation - absolutely thrilled with the outcome. They gave me great advice and found solutions to a couple of tricky elements with my kitchen design that I wasn't sure how to make work. They also made sure that any work done now could easily be maintained or accessed for any future requirements. Cant recommend them enough and will certainly use them for any future projects. ~ Jess M
Tom, Zach and the rest of the team at Sparky Nearby did a great job installing new down lights and outlets in our house, and removing the old ones. They also rerouted our stove top extraction fan. They were a very reliable and professional team, who completed the job on time and to a very high standard. This is the second time we have used Sparky Nearby, and I would not hesitate to do the same for any future work we may need. ~ Mitchell W
They did a great job. Tom answered my call promptly and arrived very quickly. He gave me a full assessment of the problem and provided options for the repair. I proceeded with the repair as quoted and they (Tom and Claire) worked tirelessly to get the job completed quickly. I would highly recommend Sparky Nearby, they will be the first people I call for any future electrical repairs, maintenance or upgrades. ~ H A
First time having to deal with electricians and to my relief, it went smoothly. The initial consult/booking over the phone was explained in a simple and straightforward manner, received SMS reminders the day before the appointment, and the sparky that came was polite, efficient and helpful (despite being 7am in the morning). Would recommend these guys to anyone hoping to have a hassle-free fix to their electrical problems at home :) ~ Joy L
The team at Sparky Nearby is truly exceptional! When our apartment's lights suddenly went out, we reached out to them, and they promptly responded. Their quick diagnosis and efficient resolution of the issue were impressive, and their service was impeccable. Additionally, they were incredibly courteous throughout the process. We are highly satisfied with their service and will definitely choose them again in the future! ~ Sam P
I hired Sparky nearby to change the old fluorescent lights from my unit to new modern led lights and to install some ceiling fans. They were beyond excellent, good work and great price! They arrived on time and did a great job, a big shout to William Knapp - great and friendly guy. Did an incredible and fast job - considering the number of lights he had to change! Thank you guys, if we need other works will be calling you again. ~ Rachel R
So pleased with Sparky Nearby! They promptly called to arrange a service date, called again to remind me of the appointment, and showed up right on time. They were friendly, organised and professional. Changed my light fixtures and installed a new fan fast and with minimal noise or mess. I was working from home at the time and there was zero disturbance. Highly recommend! ~ Steph D
I have used Tom from Sparkys for a few years now. Once a junior, he is now running the show and I have always been totally happy with their service and efficiency. Today I had Zac and Claire, to take down an old Pendant light over the dining table and put a new one up. They were fabulous, clean efficient, patient and absolutely sweet!! Highly recommend!! ~ Janie C
Tom, William and Dean were all fantastic. They did a perfect job, were super responsive and efficient, helpful with any questions and much more reasonably priced than other quotes I received. There was no charge also for removing our old appliances, packaging etc. I will definitely be using them again and recommend to anyone looking for great electricians. So happy I found them! ~ Vanessa D
Had a great experience with Jack, Connor and Tom. The team are skilled, professional and efficient. Connor and Jack attended my home and performed works including installing a series of lights and power points, and relocating the aerial. Tom attended to quote and has great and practical ideas with lighting and power point placement. I look forward to working with the team again soon ~ Nathan F
Sparky Nearby was Fantastic, well organised, and produced great work with stellar finish. One thing though, as I am a perfectionist, something I always deliver to my own clients, is a CLEAN FINISHED Work area. Please take a moment to clean thoroughly the area of work before finishing. All-round, positive 5 🌟 experience! Thank You again, Sparky Nearby! Regards, Aatlas and Family. ~ AATLAS R
Absolute superstars! Got the job done faster than expected and were SO thoughtful with how they completed the work. For example - they added a power point next to my bed as they could see I had a mess of extension cords and power boards. They also added a power point in the cupboard for a charging station. Absolutely brilliant and could not recommend them enough. ~ Anna D
