I chose this company because of their advertised free service call and their prompt availability…read more The technician arrived quickly, was courteous, and completed the work in about 15 minutes. My garage door cable had come off the drum and one wheel had come out of the track. I was presented with two choices: a $275 "temporary fix" or a $475 "permanent fix." I asked exactly what the temporary fix included and was told it simply meant putting the wheel back in the track and rewinding the existing cable onto the drum. No replacement parts were installed. Although I understand that companies charge for experience and expertise, $275 felt excessive for what I was told was simply reassembling the existing parts. What concerns me even more is the invoice I received afterward. It states that I declined new rollers, end bearing plates, center bearing, vertical tracks, and even a new garage door opener. That was not how the conversation was presented to me. I was offered only two choices--a temporary repair for $275 or a permanent repair for $475. I was never given individual estimates for each of those items or asked to make separate decisions about replacing them. When I contacted the company afterward to express my concerns, they responded by explaining their pricing policy but did not address my concerns about the invoice or whether the work performed justified the charge. The technician was professional and prompt, and I appreciate that. My dissatisfaction is with the pricing, the way the repair options were presented, and the documentation that appeared on my receipt afterward. If you're considering this company, I recommend asking for a detailed written estimate before authorizing any work and making sure you understand exactly what is being repaired, what is being replaced, and what will appear on your final invoice.

The price was higher than expected, but fair considering their immediate response, knowledge, and I didn't have to order parts online and install myself. John weighed my door, checked the current spring specs and got us squared away pretty quickly. I believe in second chances and this experience was smooth from start to end. Great job!!!

I needed a 2001 car opened and keys made so I could remove it from a landlord's property in Jan 2022. Mahdi showed up on time in back of home as I instructed. He worked very hard and opened the door, dealt with problems caused by dirty lock little used for a year, and got me a copy of both keys. He worked with me to get the car to start and made sure it would restart for me. Above and beyond expectations. The pressure I was under in settling the detritus of a person's life was made easier by this helpful service. Thank you, Best Locksmith, for living up to your name. read more

Prompt and professional, the 2 things that you really need in an emergency like being locked out of your car late at night. Ben had both in spades as he helped us with a rekey/refob for my car! The price was very competitive to the point where We were worried that we might get upsold but we worried for nothing as the price quoted was the price we paid! We won't hesitate to use him again if we ever have another lockout/rekey again! read more
