Dean assessed the problem with our lock quickly and advised on appropriate parts and how to source these. He came back to fit these and adjust another lock. All done efficiently and promptly and at a fair price.

Dean arrived on time and replaced two locks. The job took about 20mins. He was so helpful, efficient and tidy. I've already recommended 1st Call Southwest Locksmiths to several friends.

I wish we’d known about Dean before, as a previous experience with a different UPVC window repairer had been unnecessarily complicated and time-consuming. I was able to get an appointment for Dean to come out to our house very easily. He came as agreed, ringing first with an estimated arrival time - which was very helpful. He carried out the work (replacing a locking window handle and repairing some others) we had discussed over the phone super efficiently and for a fair price, to a high standard. He was also very friendly and helpful, and clearly pleased to be able to help. Dean was then able to produce a paper invoice straight away, meaning I didn’t have to wait to be able to pay him, and I already had the paperwork I wanted for my file (without the hassle of printing it out myself). I would recommend Dean without hesitation.

We received excellent service from 1st Call Southwest. Dean turned up at agreed time and managed to open our digital safe, it was a great relief. After years of use with no problem it was a worry that we could not open it. The problem seems to be resolved and we are very grateful to Dean for his work. Would certainly recommend 1st Call Southwest

He was a very personable man, so so helpful, and did a fabulous job. I had a problem with the lock on a window, and was unable to open it. I'm extremely pleased with his service. I have used Dean before, and wouldn't use anyone else.

Front door mechanism not working - emergency callout

As we couldn't operate the door mechanism on a multipoint UPVC door on a bank holiday, we were concerned we would be stuck until the next day. Using the Which? Trusted Traders website, I read the previous reviews for a local locksmith and contacted Dean's home number and left details for him to call me, which he did within 10 minutes and agreed to rearrange his schedule to come out that day, within 2 hours and would message me in advance of arrival. Dean sent a text in advance as promised and arrived promptly. He immediately set to work assessing the issue and offering a choice of a repair or replacement part, which included a 2 year guarantee. The final bill was reasonable considering the emergency callout and all the work involved, which was done quickly and demonstrated on completion, followed by him cleaning up the door for handmarks from the grease used. Dean was friendly, helpful and professional throughout. A detailed invoice was provided explain work completed, to cover the payment methods and the parts guarantee. I felt confident that I had chosen the right business to do the job and was glad to get this important security issue sorted as quickly as it was. I invited Dean to quote for other work in the future because his business doesn't just do locks, as I have work to replace a blown glass window and fix a conservatory door seal as well.

Called Dean after being badly let down by another Company. He was prepared to travel out of hours to resolve the problem with our broken front door lock, in a highly professional and cost effective manner. I wish I had used Dean in the first place. I cannot recommend this business highly enough.
