Rang Shane asking for a quote for 2 x locks to be replaced. I was given a very reasonable price and was able to book in for the locks to be changed the same afternoon. Very polite guy and had the job done super quick!

Shane was reliable and turned up when he said he would. Carried out the repair, found and sorted other issues - a previous locksmith had put a screw back in with Blutac! He charged a reasonable price for the work, was polite, efficient and I would definitely recommend him.
