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.
Snapped my key in the front door on Mill Road late on a Friday night. He turned up in about 20 minutes, extracted the broken half from the cylinder without damaging anything, then fitted a new euro cylinder there and then. Exact phone quote, three keys cut, polite throughout. Couldn't have asked for more honestly.
Tenant locked out of the flat in Cherry Hinton at 7pm. 18 minutes. Door opened, no drama, no extras.
Back door wouldn't lock at our place in Cambourne. Worn gearbox in the multipoint, swapped next morning in about an hour. Properly explained, fair price.
