## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_

> "We called Jon following an attempted burglary where the front door lock was snapped. Jon was excellent, he came straight away, gave honest and open advice about security and the choices of locks available without putting on any pressure about selection. He was knowledgable, professional and worked efficiently to an excellent standard. His prices were extremely fair. We are looking to upgrade some of our security and will definitely be using Jon again. Would highly recommend."

## Before you hire a locksmith
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade — general guidance, not a claim about this business:_
- Get the call-out fee AND the total price agreed in writing before they set off — emergency locksmith overcharging is a common complaint.
- Be wary of anyone who insists on drilling the lock straight away: most locks can be picked open, and drilling then selling a replacement is a known upsell.
- Look for a locksmith approved by the Master Locksmiths Association — the MLA vets and inspects its members, and locksmithing is otherwise unregulated.
- Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else.
- Read recent reviews for reliability and turning up on time — not only the quality of the work.
