Jim and Anton are both great. Jim originally came out and when he looked at the floodlight I purchased, suggested I go another route. I chose one that would be hard to maintain. I exchanged it for a style that Jim recommended (it was cheaper!) and they came back and installed it. When we first bought out house, Anton came out and checked a few things for us and educated us on how our motion detector lights work. He also wired an antique dining light. I am very happy with their service, their professionalism and their prices. Highly recommended!
Description of Work: Had an outdoor floodlight replaced and an unused outdoor receptacle capped.

This is the best service I have ever received! The service man was very polite and most important very knowledgeable. The chandeliers were very heavy and had an extensive amount of packing round all the crystals #1. Beautiful job -- let no damage and was very careful with the lights and crystals --wore gloves. #2. Took the time to unwrap every crystal on both lights. #3 Took time to untangle and made sure each one looked beautiful --which was confirmed by my two adult children!! Never been happier 2 thumbs and then some!!!
Description of Work: Hung 2 crystal chandeliers

lHe discovered the fan was not connected to the wiring properly which made us concerned for all the other fans in the apartment. We had the ceilings all painted previously and the painters removed and reinstalled the fans. He very graciously checked and fixed all the other fans. We have not had an elecitrician who was this knowledgeable in the 17 years we have lived here. I can see why they had so many pleased clients. Oh and we received a discount also!

We called Jim at Sparks Electric on 10-14-13 and he stopped by to eyeball the job on the 15th. He warned us they wouldn't be able to get to us for about 10 days because they were working on a mall fire involving 8 stores. However we got a call 8 days later to say they could send someone out the next day. The next day the electrician arrived a few minutes early and 4 hours later the new fan assembly had been installed. He was very careful and cleaned up. This is the first time we used this company and I would call them again as our house was built in 1967 and things are getting older.
Description of Work: Replaced aged Nutone heat, light, vent exhaust fan in bathroom ceiling with a new one and wired in new switch plate. He also removed all of the old hardware in the ceiling.

All I have to say ..This guy Jim the owner is a life Saver..He went out to my house and inspected my breaker box to see why my grinder pump kept tripping and turning off..he looked at the Breaker Bar and the whole entire right side of the panel was burned out..I checked around for other compentative rates before giving him the job and his price beat others by far..I had one guy quote me a price of $2600.00 and he did not even want to replace the whole panel..Jim did a turn key job from start to finish..Great guy and great service..He kept in contact with me for everything that was done especially when the permiting was pulled by st lucie county..I highly recommend his company for any type of electrical job..

The entire experience has been wonderful so far and more work is still scheduled. My initial phone call was returned almost immediately and within a few hours, Jim came out to give an estimate and provide ideas for the work I wanted to have completed. Jim was very personable and provided several good ideas. Jim and Anton worked together the first day and although they ran into some difficulties and problems with the existing wiring, they were able to resolve the problems and get much of the work done the first day. I needed to run out of the house while they were there working and I felt completely comfortable leaving them in the house working while I was gone! Anton returned a second day to complete most of the the requested work. There are still a few additional things I would like to have done so we will schedule another date for some more work. These guys work diligently and efficiently and provide complete confidence that a great job is being done - and they do a great job of cleaning up after they are done. I am completely happy with the work they have done so far and I am looking forward to having them come back and do more!
Description of Work: Installed new wiring for lighting and ceiling fan fixtures, separated a light and bathroom exhaust fan to two switches and hung four ceiling fans.

Originally had appt. set for 8-8-13; never showed up, so I called and Jim said he had truck trouble and apologized and would come out following day but we were going out of town, ( he did call the day i left out of town and said someone went to my house to pre-check the generator...?) and then the following week he was going out of town so I told him call me when he returns, no worries- he did call me upon return on 8-19-13 and said he will come out on Friday, 8-23-13 at 9 a.m. and will call when enroute--- he never called and never showed up and I did not call to find out why- perfectly nice man and seems to know a lot about generators but I felt in my best interest not to give him a third try:) He has great ratings so don't let this stop you from giving him a call!

Response from Sparks Electrical Contracting
(member name removed) is a great person. Due to unfortunate circumstances, we were not able to fullfill our obligation to this service call. The customer was out of town and we did go to trouble shoot the generator but were unable to access it as it was locked. We did try to get ahold of her a coulple of times but did not connect due to our hectic schedule at the time. We apologized to her on the phone and do apologize for this mistake. We have taken the necessary steps so this does not happen in the future.

The provider never bothered to give an estimate or call back after the initial contact. Guess they just didn't need the work. Certainly not anyone I would ever do business with. Unresponsive and unprofessional.
Description of Work: The provider came out to the house, looked at the work needed, pitched us on how great he was - and then disappeared without any further contact or response to voice mail.

Response from Sparks Electrical Contracting
Our Company records show that no estimate request was never made by a Mr. (member name removed), or at this address. Also we do not work on weekends as the date noted by this member is a Saturday, therefore we deem this to be a mistake by this member.

I called around 11am, and Jim came out that afternoon to discuss with us what we needed done, and he spent about an hour with us putting a plan in place. He was very professional, and did exactly what he said he would do. You do not see that kind of professionalism like that anymore. I highly recommend this company.
Description of Work: Jim was fantastic, he came to the house and went through everything with us, about what we needed to have done right now, and then what we will need to have done once the kitchen is installed. The electrician came out the next day and completed all the wiring prep for the kitchen to be installed.

They are a small company with a lot of expertise and knowledge. Our work was performed by the technician, not the principle. Because the work we required took longer than anticipated, the cost increased to cover the additional hour it took to perform all tasks.. Work was performed safely, and carefully so as not to mark walls or floors. We requested a quote for replacing 4 canister lights with LED lights and found the quote too high to carry out the work at this time. They are not the cheapest company, but it you need to know the work is done well and correctly, they are the people you need. We will probably use them to instal the LED lights when we can afford them.
Description of Work: Rewired some incorrectly wired 3-way lights, figured out what some blank switch plates operated, and installed a few dimmer switches.

Jim and his crew anticipated one day for replacement/upgrades, but ended up being two - they worked through the second day until everything was working, not leaving until 9:30 pm. They encountered problems in our wiring which was no surprise considering the poor quality of work performed by past owners of the property. These problems of course were more than quoted, but Jim advised us prior to the start of the job. Overall, we are very pleased with finding a company who knows what they are doing and will be using Sparks again for future upgrades on our money pit. If you are looking for a company who you can trust with your electrical needs, call Jim.
Description of Work: Replaced electric panel, added new sub-panel and electric lines for two new A/C Systems.

Within 3 hours of my call, the electrician came, replaced all my smoke detectors, checked my electrical box & gave me instructions on what to do if there is a problem. I can't believe how easy it was dealing w/ this company. The person that came was courteous & knowledgeable. I would certainly recommend this company & call again if needed.

It went great. Nice man.
Description of Work: Called Sparks electrical on June 25, 2013 and explained my problem of two outlets that were not working. Jim told me what to do. That the GFI was tripped and where to go to reset it and how. It was in the garage and walked me through it at no charge. We were trying to reset it in another area. What a nice man. Will certainly call and recommend him the next time I or my neighbors need an electrician.

there was a problem with a fan not being compatable with the switch they brought. A different switch one that was brand specific was needed so we had to go back to the fan supplier for that.... the first one from them was sizzling that is why we called Sparks. Dans Fans supplied a new switch and sent their electrician to do it. The owner of Sparks contacted me on his own and had me call him back to report how that went, He offered to come out no charge if we have any problems and check the whole situation, very good follow up. I would use them again.

Great service! Provider gave us a clear scope of costs prior to doing the work, came on time per our appointment, and got the job done correctly the first time. Best of all, Jim Snyder kept in touch prior to and while doing the work, and clearly explained the extra work that needed to be done. Price was as agreed. I'll definitely call on them again.
