_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "What excellent service. Andy turned up approx 25 mins after calling him. He not only fixed the lock but also had new handles on the van which he fitted. Door now operates as it should. Gold star service."

> "I called Andy because I was locked in my bedroom due to fault with the door handle. He came within 20 minutes of my phonecall, calling in on his way to another job, gained entry into the house, reset the alarm, and unlocked the bedroom door. Andy was extremely courteous, very professional, and was kind enough not to laugh at my predicament. He was polite and respectful and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and his company. Thank you Andy, you definitely saved the day."

His charge was very competitive, and it was the best price l had been quoted, by at least 15% . He quickly got me into my house , He checked that the lock was working completely and asked if l was happy with the work . Would recommend this company to anyone who needs a locksmith 100% and would use him again"

## 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.
