Josh was amazing! My friend recommended him after I locked myself out of my apartment for the first time ever on a Sunday night at 10:30pm. Josh arrived fast and made me feel comfortable straight away(and a little less silly!). While he was unable to get me into my apartment (old, very secure door) unless he drilled out the lock, he also drove me… to my friends house so I had a place to stay for the night. I decided against drilling as I was pretty sure my agent had a spare key I could access the next day. Price wise, I was VERY happy, service wise, I can not fault him. I will happily recommend

So tonight I was silly enough to lock my mum outside my house while I went to work. So I had to come home from work and unlock the door, but guess who left her keys inside the house? I did. Anyways I called and got a call. 20 minutes later and he was here to save the night! So thank you very much. Sorry I didn't get to meet you as I had to work but my mum was very thankful and so am I of course!

Josh has incredible customer service and couldn't be more wonderful to deal with. He assisted us immediately and went the extra mile and made sure my staff were safe and looked after. His communication is first class and we will definitely use his services again.
