Frequently Asked Questions — Crewe
-
I'm locked out in Crewe right now, how soon can someone come?
Phone answered in under 30 seconds, engineer dispatched within 5 minutes. Typical CW1 to CW2 arrival is 15 to 25 minutes.
-
Will the engineer damage my door?
Around 95% of jobs use non-destructive picking and bypass methods. Drilling is a last resort, with permission only.
-
I'm in a CW5 village outside Nantwich, how long?
Calls outside the main built-up area typically see 25 to 40 minute response. Realistic ETA given on the phone.
-
Do you charge a premium for night calls?
Out-of-hours rate runs 8pm to 7am and on weekends. Quoted in full on the phone before booking.
-
What ID do I need?
Photo ID matching the address. Otherwise we contact a key-holder, letting agent, or check a utility bill once we're inside.
-
I've lost my keys, do I need a new lock?
Recommended yes. If keys are unrecovered and could be linked to your address, a cylinder swap is cheap insurance.
-
Will I be charged if I cancel?
No charge if cancelled before the engineer leaves. Once en route, a small travel charge applies.
