"Mr. Locksmith really puts his heart in his work. He is willing to please, is prompt, and dependable. I will highly recommend him for the service he gives. He replaced all the screens on our back porch. But before tackling the job, he prepared the area by power washing the entire porch which we did not expect him to do."

"ADT is the best company 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."

"Very late in getting started. Had a storm which did not help but also took them forever to come back. Kitchen tiles cracked and loose after a few months. I will have to get someone in to redo the whole thing. Rot not properly addressed. Door not reset properly. Had to hire another contractor to finish the rest of the work. He found the source of leak no problem and addressed. The backspash, beadboard and cabinetry were all well done. if you have tiling get someone else and hope you are not in a rush."
