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.
Phoned around 11pm after a night out near the docks. He was on the doorstep in 20 minutes, picked the lock open and waited while I checked I had spares inside. Decent bloke.
Our uPVC back door in Fulwood had stopped locking. The handle just spun and we'd been wedging a chair against it for two days before I finally gave in and phoned someone. They came out the same morning, swapped the gearbox in about 40 minutes and lined the door back up so it shuts cleanly again. Cheaper than the window company wanted to charge for a whole new door.
Break-in attempt on mum's place in Bamber Bridge. New anti-snap locks fitted the same afternoon and a clean invoice for the insurance. Polite lad, no nonsense.
