How fast can you get to me at night in Taunton?

Overnight arrival across the TA postcodes is normally 20 to 30 minutes. Engineers rotate cover from the town out through Priorswood, Wilton and the surrounding Deane villages.

What is the night call-out rate?

After 10pm, at weekends and on bank holidays the call-out is £79 to £99 fixed, agreed on the phone before the engineer sets off. No surprises added at the door.

Will you damage my door getting in?

Most doors open by picking or bypass with no damage at all. If a cylinder has to be drilled, which is rare, it gets replaced as part of the job and you leave with a working lock.

My external lock has seized in the wet. Can you help at night?

Yes. Corroded and stiff external locks are a Somerset staple, worse near the Levels where the damp gets into everything. We free or replace the lock on the spot rather than leaving you stuck on the step.

Is there a fee if you cannot get in?

No. If we cannot solve it there is no charge, and the phone quote is the worst case you will pay.

Do I need to be at the door when the engineer arrives?

Yes, with ID that matches the address. A tenancy agreement on your phone screen is accepted if you rent.

How do I reach the emergency line?

Call 0330 179 6077. Live dispatch around the clock, every day of the year, never an answerphone.
