We were recently away from home on holiday and were made aware that the lock on our front door wouldn't open, and it wasn't possible to get into our house. We messaged Max from holiday and he replied swiftly and agreed to be free around the time we were due to get home in case we needed a locksmith. We did need one! Max came round very quickly, talked us through the options and pricing upfront, and fixed the door quickly, there and then. We would highly recommend Max.

Max came to our house 15 minutes after we called. He swapped the barrel in 10 minutes, no issues and even went above and beyond and fixed another issue on the mechanism. All this at a very competitive price! Couldn't be happier!

We locked ourselves out of our house and Max responded very quickly. He resolved the issue (as well as explaining about the lock) very quickly, and was very friendly as well- it was like meeting a friend. His customer service is great and so is his service, and his prices too! Hopefully won't get locked out again but if we do we'll know who to call :)

Max came round to help out as I had lost my back door keys to my house. I felt really comfortable with him and he was very professional as well as being able to help in a timely manner. Max talked me through different locking mechanisms and I decided I wanted to upgrade my locks. Max explained this clearly and I have felt much more secure at home since. I would highly recommend him.

Great service, from the moment I got in touch until issue resolution it took only 3 hours, and this was a Sunday as well. Communications were great and the charge was reasonable. Can't fault it in any way. In fact, highly recommended. Added to speed dial for any future work. Thanks Max

A very fast and professional response from Max, a full explanation and fix of the problem door - so much clear information on what the problem was and how/when it could happen again that I almost feel half a locksmith myself now. Plus Max also fixed another door that others had given up on. Many thanks Max

Max came really quickly on short notice. Gave us plenty of notice before arriving too. Did a great job replacing my lock with a much safer and premium lock. Lovely chap

Very efficient and friendly service. Called Max out for an emergency call at our supported living residence and he was in the property within 20 minutes of first making contact and the issue solved in good time.

Chose Max on the strength of his reviews on here and I wasn't disappointed. He arrived within half an hour and changed the lock and handle on my front door that was getting stuck for a more secure version. Asked him to also look at back door which I suspected was going to have similar problems soon, which he confirmed and said he could also change that so I would not have to pay for labour again later. Told me how to maintain the mechanisms to prevent problems in future.

Couldn't be happier with Max - gives (very reasonable) pricing up front, friendly, polite and has a seemingly encyclopedic knowledge of locks, where they're made and how to maintain each type. Thanks Max!

We called Max as we needed a lock changing and got a same day appointment. Max was professional, friendly and help me save money. He went above and beyond by realigning the door to ensure it's secure and safe. We would definitely use and recommend Max again!
