We had a hinge that snapped on one of our windows. I messaged via WhatsApp and the response was quick. He came and replaced the hinge a couple of days later. We're very impressed with the service received.

I needed a 30 year old Chubb lock replacing and Dave came and tried to refurbish the lock to save me money, but this was not possible so gave me a good quote on a new lock and extra keys. Fitted new lock a couple of days later and gave advice on looking after the old oak door as well. Great service. Highly recommend his work and service.
