"Tracy did a fantastic job! He replaced old baseboards in my home and trimmed two doors. I’m so impressed that I have already asked him to come back to install interior doors and crown molding. He gave great advice and provides great results. Very professional and a really nice guy. My cat can’t wait for him to come back! Hire this professional for great work & a great price. I highly recommend him."

"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."
"I hired Keith Horton to do a major renovation to my dad’s Virgina Beach ranch house that was built in 1958. I met with several contractors but in the end decided that Keith had the knowledge, experience, and professionalism that our project needed. I was not wrong. Keith organized all the paperwork and drawings for permits and coordinated inspections. He managed a reliable team of subcontractors that did excellent work. As you can imagine, all of this was not cheap and took some time, but Keith worked wonders with our budget and time constraints so my 86-year-old dad could return to his home in a timely manner. I live in Michigan and was managing this project for my dad so I could only be onsite a few times. Keith was patient with all the unexpected work and requests for changes. It was so important that I could trust Keith and rely on his decisions. I was never disappointed. I will be forever grateful to him. I highly recommend Keith for any project, big or small."
"I can’t say enough about this service. They clearly knew how to evaluate and fix the door. Unfortunately, it required more than I wanted To do, and they graciously took it out and disposed of the door. The price was fair, and the guys wonderful. I could not recommend them more."
"Very very pleased with Mr. Handyman. Had a section of exterior trim that had come loose in the high winds we experienced recently. It was banging on the side of my house and was threatening to do additional damage. After calling, emailing, etc., several other handyman services (and getting no response) I discovered that I had saved Mr. Handyman URL on my laptop at work. Gave them a call and arranged to perform the repair a couple hours later. Arriving home 15 minutes before the agreed upon time, Duane was already there. He repaired the trim in less than 30 minutes. Very professional. Straightened up after completion. I will definitely use again!"
Lubricating a door lock is an important part of door lock maintenance. It involves taking the lubricant of your choice (it’s best to use whatever the lock’s manufacturer suggests) and spraying it directly into the keyway. Push and pull your key in and out of the lock to make sure it’s all the way in.
The good news is that, yes, you can change locks yourself. Many people find it’s an easy DIY project that requires few tools and not much expense (depending on which lock you’re installing). If you have trouble with any part of an installation, you can always call a locksmith to help finish installing them.
