C.K. is a person.
Clyde Kent Farmer took out California electrical license #354550 in March of 1978. He’s the C.K. in the name. 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.
Shane is working through his own CSLB exams now so the license carries into a second generation with his name on it too. Until then, every job runs under #354550 — the same number that has been good in Orange County since 1978.
That is the whole pitch. A small family outfit, 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 the license yourself at cslb.ca.gov — it takes ten seconds, and you should do it for every contractor you hire, including this one.
