By pure coincidence Stephen was seconds from our home when I phoned today in a panic. I’d had to leave our home unsecured with a broken lock. I phoned him from the car and less than 2mins into the call he announced he was on our driveway! I couldn’t believe it, was like I’d phoned Superman! He promptly fixed the problem & made our home safe again. Thank you so much!read more

Saw Stephen’s van at our next door neighbours, they’d been broken into and had their car stolen. Decided there and then to have our locks replaced. Rang Stephen, he arrived as agreed and did a really professional job, he explained the product he was fitting and he also offered honest advice about others items I asked him about. Very happy with “the job” and will not hesitate to use his services again and will happily recommended him to others. Thanks Stephen.read more
