Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Locks changed on new house and repaired on windows. Completed quickly and professionally to a good standard. Would absolutely recommend.

I went back to this company as I was so impressed with the service I received last time. From my initial phonecall to the visit itself, I was treated politely and like a valued customer. The repair and costs were explained to me before work was commenced, with options according to what was needed/ what I wanted to pay. I feel confident in a job well done at a satisfactory price.

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 locksmith
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.
