Report
I called Locksmith services Ltd when the lock on door completely broke leaving me locked in the house.
Larry came earlier than the time he told me he was going to be here.
Fixed the problem, also fixed problems that would stop it happening again, was so friendly, so polite and has bundles of experience. He was even amazingly priced!!! He made a stressful time a lot better to deal with - Thank you so much!

Excellent service from first initial phone to call to finished job changing the lock as the keys to the front door had been lost. Really appreciated the politeness, professionalism and cleanliness. Top quality workmanship and very reasonable cost. Highly recommended.

Report
Key snapped in the lock. Larry was at my house within 5 mins, and had me inside 2 mins after that. No need for a new lock and no attempt to try and sell me unnecessary work. Fast, polite, honest.
