## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Rob did a fantastic job replacing the locks on my front and back doors and securing all my windows and garden back gate. Rob was so courteous and kind. And he was extremely knowledgeable about his field as well as other home improvement works that he advised me on. Nothing was too much for Rob and he patiently answered all of my questions. Rob has a great work ethic, is very professional and honest and is extremely competent in his trade. I wouldnt hesitate to contact Rob again to do more work for me. I would highly recommend Rob to anyone who wants an honest, fair and great locksmith."

## 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.
