    Change of Door Locks

    Posted 29 October 2024

    I lost the keys to my front and inner doors. Contacted Owen the Locksmith. My call was returned immediately and they came and changed both locks within two hours. The guy was very polite, courteous and very tidy. He did an excellent job at a very reasonable price. I would definitely call them again should I have a problem.
