C.K. is a person.
Clyde Kent Farmer took out California electrical license #354550 in March of 1978. He’s the C.K. in C K ELECTRIC. 48 years later that license is still current, still active, and still his.
Shane grew up around the trade. Clyde always wanted more than a license: a family company he could hand to the next generation. Today Shane runs the work, residential and commercial: service upgrades, panels, EV chargers, solar-ready work, remodels and the troubleshooting nobody else wanted. His own words are below.
Farmer Works Electric is the company Shane is building, and it is in the process of getting its own contractor’s license. Until that license is issued, electrical work is contracted under C K ELECTRIC, CSLB #354550, Clyde’s license since 1978. #354550 is C K ELECTRIC’s license, not a Farmer Works license.
That is the whole pitch. A small family outfit, work contracted under a license that has been active for 48 straight years, and a phone that gets answered by the guy who is going to be standing in your garage.
Verify C K ELECTRIC’s license yourself at cslb.ca.gov. It takes ten seconds, and you should do it for every contractor you hire, including this one.
