When you need an electrician, you want someone qualified, reliable, and straight with you about what the job involves.
I'm Karen Smith — Director and qualified electrician with over 25 years' experience. My team of five NICEIC-registered electricians handles everything from domestic repairs and full rewires to EICRs, EV charging and fault finding across West Kent & East Sussex. Every job gets the same standard of work and the same clear communication from start to finish.
We're NICEIC registered, Part P Compliant, and on the Electrical Safety Register — so any work we carry out is certified, insured, and done to the required standard. But beyond the credentials, what our clients tell us they value most is that we show up when we say we will, we explain what we're doing, and we don't disappear after the job's done.
Karen founded Bright Spark because she saw a gap in the market for a Domestic Electrical Service that actually communicates properly — so that's what we built. You'll know who's coming, when they're arriving, and exactly what the job involves before anyone picks up a tool.
With their location being based in Tonbridge & Tunbridge Wells, Sevenoaks & Crowborough, Bright Spark Electricians are in an optimum position to work with you across the South East, including Kent, East Sussex & West Sussex.
We're a busy team — currently booked 1–4 weeks ahead depending on the work involved. Emergencies are handled the same day, often within hours.
Lead times run from the point you confirm you'd like to go ahead, not from your initial enquiry. So there's no pressure to decide quickly — take the time you need to review your quote.
For everything else, get in touch and we'll confirm your earliest available slot.
Domestic customers — repairs, fault finding, rewires, consumer unit upgrades, EICRs, extra sockets and lighting, EV chargers, smoke alarms and more.
We work regularly with landlords, letting agents, local businesses and care homes across Kent. Whether you need an EICR for a rental property, PAT testing for a commercial premises, or ongoing electrical maintenance for a portfolio of sites — we understand the compliance requirements and can work around your tenants or operations.
Commercial and landlord clients — everything above, plus PAT testing, landlord certificates and periodic inspection reports.
To find out more about their services they offer you, feel free to contact them via the website.
We accept cash, BACS, credit and debit card, and Klarna — including a pay-later option for larger works. Payment is taken on completion, with a partial deposit required on jobs over £1,000.
Not sure what you need, or want to understand more before you call? Our Knowledge Centre covers everything from consumer unit replacements and EICRs to EV charging, lighting and what to do if you lose power.

Thanks for Louise's great work - very happy!
My external security lights had failed and because they were over 20 years old, several electricians felt unable to help me. I then asked Karen from Bright Sparks to get involved. She promptly surveyed the problem, gave me a competitive quote and as soon as I accepted it, gave me a firm date for the work to be undertaken. Her electricians arrived on the due date, were very friendly and tidy and worked in difficult places without problem. I definitely intend to use Bright Sparks again.
Karen recently came to our place on a Sunday afternoon when our kitchen suddenly lost all power. She found and fixed the problem with the breaker very quickly, and also checked the others. She did a great job and we were very pleased to get it fixed so quickly! I recommend her to friends, and will definitely call her the next time we need an electrician.
I just wanted to say how amazing your customer service is. You are the first (and only?) trade company that communicates and is efficient from my experience. I really appreciate texts, and emails giving me updates. It means I don’t have the frustration of having to stay in for the electrician all day and waste my time. You run an excellent service. Your electrician was great and very quick. We will definitely be using you again.
I had a number of light fittings that weren't working and, on a recommendation from a friend, called Bright Spark. Karen called in to evaluate and price the work the same day and sent one of her colleagues, to carry it out before the end of the week. It was a very impressive response and the work was done to an excellent standard. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bright Spark, and it's reassuring to know such a reliable firm exists the next time I need an electrician.
