How to Avoid Cowboy Locksmiths

TRUSTED LOCKSMITHS MILTON KEYNES

You wouldn’t think that attempting to improve your home security could leave you stranded, but there is a new type of rogue tradesperson on the rise. Cowboy locksmiths provide quick fix ‘solutions’, only to keep you locked outside of your home unless you pay an eye-watering amount of money. Here at Brinnick Locksmiths, we provide a quality, reliable service that ensures families and homeowners are safe and secure.

SPOTTING COWBOY TRADESPERSONS

There are many tell-tale signs you are being tempted by a rogue tradesperson. Once you are aware of these red flags, you will spot and avoid them easily. Today, we are going to look at how you can avoid cowboy traders and find the right team to help you in your time of need.

AVOID COWBOY LOCKSMITHS

RESIST ADVERTS, FAVOUR REPUTABILITY

Many tradespersons advertise their services online to show their abilities and reach their target audience. However, as you search for a trusted business, you must stay vigilant and avoid rogue sites that depend on excessive advertisements to entrap customers. Any trusted locksmiths will be visible through map listings or an organic search and have a collection of glowing testimonials from their customers.

THE RISK OF REVIEWS

While a website filled with outstanding locksmith reviews may seem like a safe choice, you should always cross-reference and check third party review sites and Google. As with any trade, you should ensure their reputation is as strong as their website suggests. If they brush off questions about reviews and previous projects, avoid them and find a reputable company.

LOW COSTS AND LITTLE INFORMATION

If you find a deal online that seems too good to be true, it is likely a rogue trader laying a trap. We keep our costs low without compromising quality. Our team is available to offer free help and advice over the phone or in our shop. We can discuss our pricing with you and explain every penny, so you know you are in reliable, trustworthy hands.

MLA APPROVED

To find the best companies near you, check online with the Master Locksmiths Association (MLA). The MLA ensures you receive the highest standard of workmanship, as members are inspected, vetted, and all staff are DBS checked. You are in safe hands with Brinnick Locksmiths because we are the only MLA licensed locksmith in Milton Keynes.
