"Errol of Best Handyman Services was very quick to contact me. He was also very punctual and addressed all the problems I had. I had a couple issues, including window repair and a plumbing fix your leak. It was nice to be able to call one person instead of two different companies do dresses issues. Needless to say he’s very versatile with his skills. I would recommend him to anyone."
"Christopher arrived on time, was courteous, professional , explained the job in detail and repaired my folding kitchen pantry door in record time. He also tore down and removed a rotted plywood handicap ramp off my lanai and hauled away the mess leaving my yard pristine. He is a hard worker and yes, I'd hire him again in a heartbeat. The cost was reasonable for the job completed."
"Trevor and his guys did an outstanding job. Very professional and courteous. They assessed the job and were working to replace the door the same day. Finished the job the next morning. Completely satisfied."
"Walter and Glen at Protect Your Home Group with ADT are the best people to talk to in terms of security alarm. Being a locksmith myself I know how important it is to deal with the right people. I referred a lot of customers to them and so far they are happy with their service. I myself got one for my house. Thank you for a consistent service and great deal."
"Contacted TrueBlue on Saturday due to help with a shower knob replacement where the screw seemed to be a bit stripped - probably from previous owner. I couldn't unscrew it with any of my phillips-head screwdriver so tried to enlist some help. TrueBlue offered to have a tech come out and give an estimate the next day, Sunday. Despite being a weekend and just a few days after the hurricane, they showed up early and actually fixed my issue then and there in less than 10 minutes. Didn't charge anything although I was willing to pay. Giving 5 stars due to great communication, friendly and considerate technician, and prompt service. Would do business again, especially since the first "pro" who called me 1 minute after I listed the project did a no-show after we set a mutually agreeable time for an appointment on the same day."
"We had both a security safe installed and our floors epoxied, and from start to finish working with Zinn was exceptional. He responded right away, was thoughtful about the design and our specific needs, and the installation was top-notch, professional work. The results exceeded our expectations, and the entire process was smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Hamilton and Carter for anyone looking for quality craftsmanship, clear communication, and reliable service."
Yes, you should change the locks as soon as you can after completing the purchase of a house. This is a matter of privacy and security, as you have no idea how many copies of the keys the previous owner made. You can change the locks yourself or hire a pro to replace or rekey the lock, which costs $50 to $100.
Yes, many locksmiths offer 24/7 emergency services for business lockouts, broken keys, and security breaches.
Whether or not keyless door locks are safe and trustworthy depends on the visibility of the programming code—and a trespasser’s determination. Even if you carefully guard entry and programming codes, those trying to break in may be able to crack open the lock’s faceplate with a screwdriver and change the codes. The same goes for manual models.
Some find smart locks the safest option because it’s harder to manipulate codes without access to your phone. But it’s possible to get hacked even then. Consider installing an extended security system, like door and window alarms or surveillance cameras, to enhance security.
If part of the key is protruding out of the lock, you can use a pair of needle-nosed pliers or tweezers to gently turn the key in the lock to open the door. If the key is fully inserted into the lock, you may also be able to use a key extractor to help turn the key into the unlocked position.
But if the key breaks off halfway into the lock or you simply can’t reach it to help engage the unlocking mechanisms, you should probably call a professional.
Costs depend on lock type, service complexity, labor, emergency availability, and whether security system integration is needed.
