Highlights
"When Barry arrived, he was very polite and knowledgeable. He explained what he was going to be doing and why. There were no hidden costs after he had gained entry, installed a new lock and repaired my door frame. I would genuinely have no hesitation in using him again for any trades that he covers."
"Excellent service and competitive price. Barry has a great work ethic and I would not hesitate to recommend him."
"Barry was very efficient and treated the flat like it was his own. The standard of working through was exceptional with a perfect finish to each task. He is very honest and genuine long with full explanations of why he is doing a certain thing. I will be using him again on another property I own."

Locksmithing isn't government-regulated in the UK, so anyone can trade as one. The Master Locksmiths Association vets, inspects and background-checks its members - a useful extra assurance for this trade.
Find an MLA-approved locksmithGet 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.
