We called about a broken lock/door handle on our back conservatory doors. After sending a few photos and videos of the issue, Paul was able to identify the problem and send us over a solution and price within a couple of hours. The parts were ordered the next day and the following day they were already here installing. The whole thing took less than 15 mins! Paul and his colleague Carl were lovely and very helpful. We will definitely be using them again.

Paul, who visited us, was so knowledgeable that he made light work of repairing the antique locks on our internal doors and replacing a modern external door lock. Given that the issues with the external door had largely been caused by previously shoddy workmanship, it was great to have a specialist who immediately spotted the problem and solved it so quickly. These people are experts in their field and I would recommend them without hesitation.

Very prompt and efficient service to deal with jammed chub lock. They even found a spare part which enabled him to repair the lock and thereby avoided me having to pay for a costly replacement. No hesitation in recommending.

Today I called them for my front patio door, which wouldn’t shut. They arrived within 10 minutes and having fixed that door, they then went on to deal with an inner door that didn’t shut correctly, which they hadn’t been asked to deal with. Brilliant service, speedy and very efficient. Would definitely use again. In fact, I have booked them to come in January to deal with a routine job.

Thank you very much for your valued review. If we are on a job and something is a little amiss that would require a small 'tweak', we will do our best to resolve while we are there and at no additional cost. It's the small things that can make a big difference! Regards, Paul.
