I contacted the Emergency Locksmith 24 and they were extremely helpful right from the start. They provided me with a quick appointment and showed up on time ready to do the job. They were incredibly skilled and knowledgeable and finished the job quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend this locksmith company.
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.
The padlock on our side gate had rusted up in the salt air off the estuary and wouldn't take the key at all. He freed it, swapped it for one better suited to the coast, and gave the back door lock a wipe and a look while he was there. Sound advice, no pressure.
We took on one of the older houses by the church, and the front had a heavy old mortice that had all but given up. Booked it for the morning, no drama. He took the tired lock out, put in a proper British Standard one and cut me a full set of keys. Feels secure now in a way it plainly wasn't before.
Someone had tried the patio door overnight and left the frame chewed up. I half expected a fight to get anyone out to Daws Heath, but they came when they said. Got the door locking again, swapped the damaged parts, and talked me through what had actually failed before they left.

FAQ
Looking for a reliable locksmith near me in Benfleet? 24-hour, same-day emergency locksmith service
South Benfleet is one of the oldest settlements in Castle Point, a village on the estuary marsh that saw off Viking longships in 894 and still keeps its Norman church. Look up from the water and the ruin of Hadleigh Castle sits on the ridge, the one Constable painted. Most streets here began as plotland and filled in later as commuter housing along the Southend line, so lock work runs from old cottage doors to post-war semis. We cover South Benfleet, Thundersley and Tarpots close in, New Thundersley, Hadleigh, Appleton and Kents Hill a short run out, and the wooded lanes of Daws Heath beyond. For Benfleet addresses the target is 15 to 30 minutes door to door. When we cannot hit it, we say so before you commit to anything. Locks from £25, labour at £39, and fitting sits inside the lock price we give before any work starts. The lock and the work that went into fitting it are both guaranteed for 12 months. The locksmith engineer we send is covered by insurance and holds a current DBS certificate.
