For rented and newly purchased homes the usual job is a cylinder change at £89 to £129. Landlord invoices and receipts are no problem.

What Our Customers Say

Locked out near the Civic Centre with tea in the oven. He was with me in about 18 minutes, had the door open sharpish and the casserole survived. Champion service.

Susan L. Emergency lockout
New locks at our stone cottage in the old town. He fitted a British Standard mortice carefully to the original door and an anti-snap cylinder on the back. Neat work, fair price.

Peter M. Lock change
uPVC door in Gosforth Valley wouldn't lift to lock. Engineer realigned it and serviced the gearbox in about 40 minutes. £90 and it's been faultless since.

Janet C. uPVC door repair
Someone forced the side gate and had a go at the back door in Coal Aston. They secured everything the same evening and fitted stronger locks, with practical advice and no upselling.

David R. Burglary repair
Key snapped in the lock in Dronfield Woodhouse before an early shift. Out within 45 minutes, broken key extracted and a new cylinder fitted for £99. Quick and tidy.
