We needed 4 dimmer switches changed to light switches; connections under kitchen cabinets fixed; a socket fixed, that kept blowing when the vacuum cleaner was plugged in; and a check made on a shaver point. We have used Phil on a number of occasions, at two of our homes, and as usual he was efficient, tidy, thorough, polite and reasonably priced. All done promptly and to our satisfaction.

Another excellent job by Phil. We have used him many times now for small and medium sized jobs. He is very busy so difficult to pin down sometimes but once we have agreed a timing he does a great job at a very reasonable price. I would have no hesitation in recommending Phil for any household electrical job.

Phil really took the trouble to understand what was needed and spoke to my son about where he was going to use his welding equipment in order to get the sockets in the right place. He turned up bang on time, was lovely to have around and left the place tidy.

I have previously reviewed Phil Silverthorn's business, Silver Sparks Ltd, applauding his excellent work resolving persistent power failures. He has now reviewed my whole installation, fitting a new fuse-board. sorting out some extraordinary wireing and ensuring that there should be no further problems. He spent a full day working on it, and I consider that his charges were entirely reasonable. I would recommend Phil wholeheartedly; second to none.

I have known Phil Silverthorn for many years; he has done much excellent work for me, in particular when I moved house some ten years ago. Currently, I had to call him out twice (once in the late evening) to rectify a power failure. I have no hesitation in recommending Phil as a first rate Electrician.

Having recently moved to the New Forest and in need of someone to repair one of our storage heaters, we were pleasantly surprised to find Phil from Silver Sparks. He attended promptly, was friendly and considerate and soon identified the fault. Having ordered a replacement part he returned the following week at the agreed time and successfully completed the job with no fuss. Based on this experience we would certainly use Silver Sparks again and recommend to others.

Having been let down by numerous electricians, Phil kept to his promise and arrived early morning to commence the work. Phil fitted an extractor duct system to our cooker hood, which we desperately needed done (not fitted by builders!). He was very clean and tidy and took the time to modify our cupboard shelf to ensure we had the extra storage space. All holes suitabley filled in with a gravity grill fitted externally to finish off the job. Phil also fitted a TV bracket to a stud wall. Prefect job. One of the nicest gentlemen I've met for a long time, I won't use anyone else moving forward. Cheers Phil..
