Fantastic, can't fault anything. I called about a broken front door lock, and they were out and had it fixed within the hour. Very pleased, thank you,
Excellent service thanks for getting back to me immediately and calling out so quickly. Definitely recommend your services
Fast, courteous and professional. Would recommend and use again.
11pm-ish, locked out of the flat in Clarendon Park. Locksmith was there in 19 minutes, opened the door without damaging the cylinder, didn't try to talk me into anything else. £39 labour, that was it.
Quick, fair, no nonsense. Key broke in the front door in Stoneygate. Engineer pulled the broken piece, fitted a £25 cylinder, cut a couple of keys. Under 40 minutes.
Patio door in Oadby wouldn't lock at all — multipoint had failed and the handle just kept lifting without the bolts catching. Had been getting worse for a few weeks honestly, but finally gave up completely. Phoned them mid-morning, locksmith was over inside the hour. Right ERA gearbox on the van, swapped it in about 50 minutes. Explained exactly what had gone wrong without trying to push extra work I didn't need.
