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.
Cylinder snapped on the front door in Pitsea while I was at work. Came home, couldn't get in. Engineer there inside 20 minutes, fitted an anti-snap and showed me the broken half. £75. Didn't try to flog me anything extra.
Half ten at night, locked out of the flat in Fryerns with the kids inside. Lad turned up in under 25 minutes, no damage, standard rate.
Had some idiot try and kick the front door in on our terrace in Billericay overnight. Frame split, door was hanging on by the deadlock. Phoned first thing and the locksmith drove out from Basildon the same morning. He fitted a London bar properly, replaced both cylinders for matching anti-snaps, and re-tightened the strike plate so the whole door pulls in tight again. Real invoice for the insurance and he walked the wife through what they'd done before he left.
