What do customers look for when searching google for a locksmiths or repair company ?
Looking for a locksmith near me ?
Looking for a local business ?
Looking for a personal service ?
Looking for somebody who knows what they are doing ?
These are probably the most important considerations that most of our customers tell us they have when searching for a locksmith.
They are looking for a local business well established with good reviews on Google.
So how do you find it amongst the many search results the google throws up.
Well their are a few things you can look for.
Firstly you need to check the telephone number is it a local number, but don't be fooled many businesses buy in local dialing codes and use them to try to convince you they are a genuine local business.
Ring them and ask where exactly are you located, if its a call centre hang up and try another business.
Ask questions like who will be doing the work ?
Terms like we will send an engineer mean you are dealing with a national based call centre.
If you get answers like, "well its my husband" you can be pretty certain its a local business run by one person.
Ask them how long it takes to get someone out, longer than 10 minutes in Chepstow their not local.
Ask them how long they have been in business ?

Is a company that's based in Cardiff, Newport or Bristol going to really want to come all the way back over 20 or 30 miles which is a 60 odd mile return trip to sort out any small adjustment faults or problems on a door or window ?
Door's move a lot and when the weather turns hot or very cold plastic upvc doors move a hell of a lot, that mean's contrary to what most people think they can need adjusting on a fairly regular basis to keep them working properly before finding the optimum settings. They have a lot of adjustments points on them, their definitely not fit and forget door's.
Wood door's are the same, newly fitted locks can need very slight adjustments, we carry out this service free for the first 12 months after fitting or repairing your locks.
Why is all this relevant ?
Well it could save you a lot of money and problems should you need a locksmith to repair your door locks, so its definitely worth doing some homework before letting a cowboy repair man lose on your brand new one thousand pounds plus front door.
