    Alex was very quick and polite to respond to the minor repair to the realign the lock. In hindsight I should have questioned the cost ,but I needed a quick repair, and that is what I got.

    Alex was very professional, reliable and very efficiently and quickly repaired a snapped off window handle. There was excellent communication throughout and transparency of pricing before starting the job. I highly recommend this locksmith and will use the company again if need be.
