How long does it take to launch a franchise?

No, you do not need to be a licensed electrician to own a Mister Sparky franchise. Many of our franchise owners come from various backgrounds and are not electricians themselves. We provide comprehensive training and support to ensure you and your team can provide top-notch electrical services. However, your team will need to include qualified electricians to perform the actual electrical work. We support you as you work to achieve licensing requirements for your business.
Is electrical work dangerous?
