Frequently Asked Questions — Southeast London
-
Where are your engineers based?
Across all SE postcodes. We have engineers covering Greenwich, Lewisham, Peckham, Bermondsey and the wider SE area. Closest van to your call gets dispatched.
-
Are you a local locksmith or a call centre?
Phones are answered nationally so a real person picks up at any hour. The engineer who arrives is local, working SE postcodes daily.
-
Do you cover all the SE postcodes?
SE1 through SE28. Inner SEs are quickest. Outer SEs near Bromley or Sidcup add a few minutes drive time.
-
Saturday night calls?
Yes. Full 24/7 cover. Friday and Saturday nights are our busiest, so we keep extra engineers on shift.
-
How do I confirm the engineer's legitimate?
We text the engineer's name and ETA to your phone. They arrive in a marked van with photo ID. If unsure, phone the office to verify.
-
How long after midnight before someone arrives?
18 to 25 minutes typical inner SE. Outer SE closer to 30. Roadworks on the South Circular can stretch that.
-
Slightly outside SE, can you still come?
Yes. Croydon, Bromley, Greenwich peninsular and the riverside fall inside our standard cover.
