Job location: BH11Brilliant, fast, friendly, thorough and considerate work. Also a competitive price for the work. We are so relieved that our broken door handles are now working well. From our enquiry to getting it sorted took just a few hours, and a couple of phone conversations. We are very very thankful! And happy to recommend Paul again to anyone needing fast, considerate, conscientious and efficient work! Thank you Paul!10 Fantastic locksmith

Job location: BH11Paul was punctual, very polite and overall a very nice chap. He came to look at 3 double glazed doors with locks which were not working. One wouldn't lock, one wouldn't open and the other was sticky. He was very professional and solved all our problems very quickly. He had a very pleasant demeanour and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and will definitely use him again should we have any problems.10 Locked out of house
