Tenancies · evictions · voidsExpert locksmiths for the properties you manage
Whether a new tenant is moving in, an empty property needs securing, or you need a locksmith for a break-in, eviction or repossession, we can help. Our 24-hour service gets a locksmith to your tenant within 30 to 60 minutes of your call, with no call-out charge.
If a tenant loses their keys, change the locks straight away. Otherwise the property is vulnerable and the tenant’s safety is at risk. We get them back in and advise you on any repair work needed. Sticking or damaged locks are repaired, replaced or upgraded so the property is secure and easy to use.
