10 I fully recommend Owen the Locksmith and his team
Posted 6 days ago
I went back to this company as I was so impressed with the service I received last time. From my initial phonecall to the visit itself, I was treated politely and like a valued customer. The repair and costs were explained to me before work was commenced, with options according to what was needed/ what I wanted to pay. I feel confident in a job well done at a satisfactory price.Verified reviewerJob location: PO5Response from Owen the Locksmith

Job location: PO4I was so impressed with Owen the Locksmith. Having used a variety of tradesmen recently and also being familiar with hiring tradesmen in my job role, Owen was outstanding. The work was quick and efficient but more so the quote, payment and invoice process was so slick - I'm sure he gets infinitely more work because when you ask for a quote, you actually get one promptly. The gent who came to fit the lock was on time and friendly.Response from Owen the Locksmith
