Testimonials

“Mike Sparks at The Light House, better known to me as ‘Sparkie’, has done many restorations for me with old light fittings that needed rewiring & fittings etc.  I have seen his workshop with so many beautiful old pieces of traditional lighting, and he has been so wonderful and sympathetic at their restoration.

His finding of ‘old traditional lighting’ that he sells on is incredible and his contacts in the Auction world give him a wonderful entrance into availability in the UK market.

Mike will always talk with clients as to their problems and their requests and come up with answers to Designers’ requests and Clients’ needs.

I cannot recommend him highly enough!”

Chris Drayson, Interior Designer.  Kingston

“We asked Mike at The Light House to restore and repair our much loved Silver Two Tier Chandelier family heirloom.  Mike did a fantastic job, cleaning and rewiring the Light to its former glory and even managed to source broken and missing droplets from as far a field as the USA.  We are delighted with the result, which was very reasonably priced, and thoroughly recommend his services.”

“Mr Sparks updated two lamps that have been in our family for three generations.  The work was carried out sympathetically and with attention to detail.  I would say he is a craftsman and would not hesitate to recommend him to friends.”

Mrs Ruth McDonald. Chalfont St Peter

“Dear Mr Sparks, Once again, I would like to thank you for the high quality of your work and your unfailing attention to details shown when you repaired my three lamps.  I am very grateful and recommend you anytime.  Best wishes and kind regards.”

Letter from Mrs Evelyne Butcher, Aug 2017.  Hyde Heath

“Mike Sparks was recommended to me by another electrician.  He was quick to respond to my enquiry about changing the plugs on some lamps that I had bought abroad – a small job but one I did not want to do myself.  Mike called me at a time we had agreed and offered a complimentary home visit to quote for the job, which was really convenient.  He was on time and gave practical advice on the options and a price for the work.  The work was done to high standard and Mike returned the lamps to my house a week later.  I found his service easy, friendly and great value for money.”

“I just wanted to say a big thank you to both you and Mark for the excellent restoration you carried out on our ‘lady lamp’. I know it was not an easy task and presented a challenge for you but the result is perfect. She is back in her rightful place (complete with LED bulbs)! If we need any other repairs in the future be sure we will contact you.”
