What’s in a typical quote?

  • Labour time
  • Lock parts or materials
  • Callout charge (if any)
  • VAT (if applicable)

Qualifications to check:

Locksmiths don’t need formal qualifications, but many complete courses through recognised bodies like the Master Locksmiths Association. Always check reviews, ask questions, and get multiple quotes where you can.

How long does a locksmith job take?

Gaining access in an emergency might take 15–30 minutes. Changing a lock usually takes 30–60 minutes. Complex or multiple jobs may take longer - but the locksmith should give you an estimate.

Locksmith in Bristol: Renters vs Homeowners

For homeowners:

You’re usually responsible for any lock repairs or replacements. If the lock is faulty or you’ve been burgled, check your home insurance — it may cover the cost of a locksmith. Always ask for an itemised invoice if you plan to make a claim.

For renters:

Start by speaking to your landlord or letting agent. It’s typically their responsibility to cover essential repairs (including faulty locks), but if you’ve lost the key or caused damage, you might need to pay. Check your tenancy agreement for specifics, and keep them informed before booking a locksmith.
