In my 100-year-old house, an interior door latch had broken, likely an original fitting. Previously, I was advised for a different door that it was too old to repair and needed a modern replacement. However, Connors had the necessary old springs in stock this time. They promptly responded, evaluated the issue, removed the latch, and returned it within a few days fully repaired at a very fair price.

Can highly recommend. Excellent service definitely worthy of 5 stars. David is very polite, friendly and clearly very experienced and knowledgeable. He knew exactly what the problem was, gave me a no obligation quote which was very reasonable. Resolved the issue swiftly, tested and made sure I was completely satisfied before he left. Would definitely recommend to friends and family and will be calling them again should the occasion arise in the future
