Femi was absolutely fantastic with the job at hand, he was punctual,(even early) with a call to say that he could make it earlier if it was convenient for me. Femi was very professional and knows exactly what he is doing he is greatly proficient with his work. I am so pleased with the work done and his prices that we even discussed some other work that I need to be done within the house including electrical and carpentry. Femi is an all round workman and seems to have a wide skill set within domestic/engineer work. Thank you soo much Femi.

First, Airtasker guarantees transparent and honest reviews from customers just like you. When you hire a master locksmith through our platform, you get to read through customer testimonials even before confirming the appointment. Next, we encourage you to ask for identification once the locksmith arrives. They will also ask you for proof of ownership, so everyone should be covered in security.
To prove that you own your home, the locksmith may request a copy of the deed to your home, an ID with your address, or mail with your address on it. Or, they may ask your landlord or neighbours to verify that you are indeed locked out of your home. On the other hand, an auto locksmith may request to see your car’s title, so it’s best to keep this handy in your glovebox.

Need help clearing out your old place? You can find affordable furniture removalists through our platform.

What does a local locksmith service include?
While they’re great in emergencies, you can call on a locksmith to help with other lock-related challenges, too. Here’s what you can expect when you hire a locksmith for different tasks:
Emergency locksmith
Emergency locksmiths are available at short notice and often work outside standard trading hours. Ideally, you want to make an emergency call to a locksmith near you so they can get to you quickly and keep your lockout time to a minimum. An emergency locksmith will first try to pick your locks and deadbolts to get you back into your home. But if this doesn’t work, they’ll have the right tools to drill the lock and immediately install a new one to keep your home secure.
Auto locksmith near me
If you break or lose your car key, or lock it inside your car, you can hire an automotive locksmith. They can unlock your car to retrieve your keys or replace your lock and key with a new one. Auto locksmiths can also help with fitting car locks, fixing car door handles, and replacing ignition barrels.
Lock repair
Locks don’t last forever. Wear and tear can make them stick or even break. Sometimes, you may even need burglary repairs. A locksmith can help with lock repair on your front door, car door, garage door, mailbox, bathroom/bedroom, and even your windows and sliding doors. They’ll either fix and realign the broken lock or if it’s beyond fixing, they’ll replace it with a new one.
Lock installation
If you’ve got a new door, a broken lock, or you’re not confident your current security system is secure, you might need a new lock installed. This is a smart idea if you’ve lost track of who has access or a copy of your keys. Find a locksmith near you to install a new or upgraded lock so you can be confident it’s done properly. When you post your task, be sure to specify what type of lock you need fitted, whether you have the lock already, or if you need the locksmith to provide materials.

So the door mechanism is faulty. When pressing the button on the key for remote unlock you can hear it clicking as it will unlock the doors but it doesn’t. It will only unlock when key is traditionally put in the lock and turned. Driver’s window wont move up or down but you can hear the mechanism inside when pressing the window button..
