    A good job with associated good advice

    Posted 27 January

    We needed a more reassuring access to our apartment which is on the 8th floor. Ryan, the engineer advised us of various solutions, especially the cheapest and most pragmatic one . Ryan was able to demonstrate to us how it would work- he was able to complete the job on the first visit . He also took time out to advise on door care and usage precautions . Very satisfied.

    Front door lock replacement

    Posted 21 October 2024

    We had an issue with the lock on our front door, arranged a time for them to come and repair. They arrived when they said they would and quickly and professionally replaced the part as needed. Great communications, friendly, professional, punctual and all at a very fair price. Highly recommended !

    Change front door lock and realign doors, replace window hinges

    Posted 07 October 2024

    We were given a competitive quote and Mike turned up the next day at the arranged time. He was patient in explaining the issues and was meticulous in his work. We will use the firm again should the need arises.

    Friendly, reliable and quick help!

    Posted 02 October 2024

    I called Owen the Locksmith in February 2020 when one of my front door locks broke and I called them again this week - after I came home to find the other front door lock dodgy and I reckoned it was about to break - on the off chance that they were still around after 6:30pm. They answered and offered to come out the next day. They explained my options well and were in and out in 25 minutes! The lock they replaced 4.5 years ago is still going strong and I feel secure with the new lock. They are friendly, reliable, transparent, easy to establish contact with and, for me, local. Recommended!

    Posted 01 October 2024

    Very professional service, I got a call ahead of the appointment to let me know they were on the away. The service was efficient, friendly and professional. Will not hesitate to use their services again/recommend them.

    Rear garden doors notbopening - dismantled and replaced faulty component.

    Posted 23 September 2024

    A very good experience, albeit more expensive than I had expected (without previous knowledge of potential locksmith costs), although to be fair costs were made clear throughout.
