Frequently Asked Questions — Puddletown

  • How quickly can you reach me in Puddletown?

    Puddletown sits just north-east of Dorchester in DT2, so for most addresses we are usually with you in 30 to 40 minutes from our Weymouth and Dorchester side. It is a small village off the main road, and we give you a proper ETA for your exact address before an engineer leaves.

  • Can you work on the older thatched and stone cottages here?

    Yes. Puddletown, in the heart of Thomas Hardy country, has older stone and thatched cottages with original timber doors, mortice locks and rim nightlatches. We carry parts for traditional British Standard mortice locks and can repair or replace on a period door without spoiling its character.

  • Do you cover the newer housing as well as the old village?

    We do. Alongside the older cottages, Puddletown has some newer housing with uPVC and composite doors on multipoint mechanisms and euro cylinders. Whether you need a gearbox repair on a modern door or a mortice lock on an old cottage, we handle both.

  • Are your Puddletown locksmiths DBS checked and insured?

    Every engineer we send to Puddletown is DBS checked and carries 2 million pounds of public liability cover. You are letting someone into your home, so it matters they are vetted and accountable. ID is shown on arrival without you needing to ask.

  • Which areas around Puddletown do you cover?

    As well as Puddletown itself we cover the surrounding DT2 villages toward Dorchester, including Tolpuddle, Piddlehinton, Athelhampton and the smaller hamlets nearby. If you are out in the countryside and unsure whether we reach you, ring us and we will confirm the ETA.

What Our Customers Say

  • Locked out of our cottage in the village on a Sunday. He was here in about 35 minutes, opened the old timber door without a mark, and charged 68 pounds. No fuss.
    Angela H. Emergency lockout
  • The mortice lock on our stone cottage door had worn out. He fitted a British Standard replacement carefully so it did not damage the timber. 140 pounds and lovely work.
    Edward M. Lock change
  • Our uPVC back door on the newer part of the village would not lock. The mechanism had gone. He had the part on the van and fixed it for 106 pounds. Quick and clean.
    Ruth W. uPVC door repair
  • After a break-in attempt he came out the same day, made the door secure, then returned with British Standard locks for the insurance. Kind and patient with us, 225 pounds for the lot.
    Martin R. Burglary repair
  • Changed the cylinder on our front door for an anti-snap one, 60 pounds, done in twenty minutes. Polite and good value for a village call.
    Hazel D. Lock change
  • Snapped my key in the front door heading out. He extracted it and fitted a new cylinder there and then, 80 pounds. Sorted it calmly and quickly.
