I would highly recommend him. He came over, and the door was repaired within an hour of calling and explaining the problem. It was top-quality work, and he was a lovely bloke who obviously knew what he was doing.

Brilliant service from Lee today. Messaged him and he arrived within an hour, lock mechanism fixed within an hour, he even adjusted the door for us so it fits better! Had a much higher quote from a national company, he even fixed some of the damage done by the National company that I used through insurance to open the door, I'll be going straight to Lee if this were to happen again!
