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.

I had an emergency situation arising from a constantly tripping appliance. A call to Bright Sparks, who have helped me before, led me to their website’s ‘Knowledge Centre’ and although I’ve used similar help sites before this was excellent – clear, well laid out, and logically organised – and as someone with zero electrical knowledge I managed to find the fault myself! I followed up the situation on the phone and got more advice. Really impressed by the Bright Sparks service and will continue to use them and their Knowledge Centre again in the future.
Our timer on our central heating went and my husband was miles away at work,it was early evening when I phoned karen, but straight away she told me not to worry,to send a photo of the timer and she'd sort it out,and she did, an electrician came out with a new timer fitted it and was gone, brilliant service from start to finish, will definitely use them again and would highly recommend them
We have been very impressed by Bright Spark Electrical Services. Karen Smith visited us to discuss our requirements and gave advice which cut our costs. The work was carried quickly and on time with excellent results. The areas affected were clean and tidy when the work was completed. We had a slight problem with a unit but it was dealt with as soon as it was reported. I have no hesitation in recommending this company and will definitely contact them again for any further electrical problems.
I needed a job done really 'sooner rather than later' and at a weekend too! Karen came out, assessed what needed to be done and set to work straight away. Job done, cleared up and on her way within the hour! Not often you get that service! Certainly will keep her number on my mobile and recommend to anyone who needs an electrical job done!
Very pleased with the excellent job from the Bright Spark team. Really informative and helpful advice from Karen and Richard the electrician was friendly, professional and a pleasure to deal with. Will use again. Thank you very much for a job well done.Update: just used Bright Spark again (Aug 25) and Joe did an excellent job and Karen's communication was excellent. Thank you very much.
