Tim was very personable, professional, and knowledgeable. Best locksmith I've ever used. My front door closes and locks better than it ever has - he even fixed the hinges on another door. His rates are extremely reasonable - cheap in fact. He was at my house for almost an hour and a half and made several keys that he didn't even charge me for. It's obvious that he cares about his customers. I would highly recommend him.
Description of Work: Tim changed out a lock, repaired another lock and re-keyed it, disabled two locks that were not to code, and made keys for a lock that we did not have keys to.

Tim is very efficient and helpful. He was able to do the job on the day that I called, and he took the time to talk with me about the pros and cons of various types of locks, since I'm considering having new locks installed. All in all, it was a very good experience.

Tim arrived on time for the scheduled appointment. He's helpful and does quality work. He charged me $59 for the service call plus the cost of the lock he fixed. Had I called him first I would have saved about $100!
Description of Work: Returning from a trip I discovered I left my house keys in Chicago! I called a 24-hour locksmith but the fellow ruined the lock cylinder. They were flaky! I had Tim Holt come out later to repair the lock. Didn't know Holt does emergency work - should have called him first. Tim replaced the locking cylinder and did a great job as always.

TIM PROVIDES OUTSTANDING SERVICE. HE WAS ON TIME, GOT THE BOLT INSTALLED QUICKLY, AND CHARGED A REASONABLE PRICE, LOWER THAN OTHER BIDS. HE ALSO HELPFULLY POINTED OUT ELEMENTS OF THE DOOR AND ADJOINING WINDOW THAT COULD USE REPAIR. BEST OF ALL, TIM IS A VERY FRIENDLY AND PERSONABLE GUY. THIS WAS THE MOST PLEASANT INTERACTION I'VE HAD WITH A CONTRACTOR. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

TIM HOLT WAS VERY INFORMATIVE. WE WERE UNSURE WHAT TO DO, SO HE SUGGESTED THE TYPE OF LOCK WE SHOULD INSTALL AND THE LOCATION OF THE LOCKS. HE WAS HELPFUL, FRIENDLY, AND KNOWLEDGEABLE. I FEEL THAT OUR HOUSE IS NOW MORE SECURE.

THE DEADBOLT ON MY FRONT DOOR HAD BEEN REALLY DIFFICULT TO TURN, AND THEN ONE NIGHT, IT BROKE! THE NEXT DAY I CALLED TIM; HE ANSWERED THE PHONE HIMSELF AND SAID HE COULD COME OVER THE FOLLOWING MORNING OR EVEN THAT AFTERNOON TO FIX THE LOCK. I MET HIM AFTER WORK--TIM HAD CALLED AT ONE POINT TO GIVE ME AN UPDATE ON HIS ARRIVAL TIME, WHICH WAS REALLY HELPFUL. TIM GOT EVERYTHING FIXED AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO THE LOCK WHILE EXPLAINING HOW THE DOOR PUT PRESSURE ON THE LOCK. HE WAS VERY PERSONABLE AND PROFESSIONAL. I WAS REALLY GRATEFUL THAT HE WAS SO RESPONSIVE (NO LEAVING MESSAGES OR PHONE TAG) AND WILLING TO TAKE CARE OF THE LOCK QUICKLY. THANKS, TIM!

TIM HOLT WAS EXCELLENT TO WORK WITH. HE ANSWERED THE PHONE HIMSELF AND I NEVER HAD TO LEAVE A MESSAGE AND WAIT FOR A RETURN CALL. TIM WAS RESPONSIVE AND FLEXIBLE, AND HE ACCOMMODATED MY SCHEDULE BY MAKING SATURDAY APPOINTMENTS. MY SLIGHT DOWNGRADE ON PUNCTUALITY IS BECAUSE HE WAS LATE FOR THE FIRST APPOINTMENT BY AN HOUR, BUT HE CALLED AHEAD AND ADMITS HE GENERALLY RUNS A LITTLE LATE.
Description of Work: REPLACED FOUR DEADBOLTS (KEYED THE SAME) AND FOUR OUTSIDE DOOR KNOBS. SPECIAL ORDERED THREE LEVER-STYLE KNOBS AND MADE A SECOND TRIP TO INSTALL. PRICE INCLUDES COST OF ALL HARDWARE, INCLUDING SPECIAL ORDER.

TIM WAS VERY PERSONABLE AND QUICK. HE ARRIVED EXACTLY ON TIME, TOOK OUT THE 3 LOCKS, WENT TO HIS TRUCK TO RE-KEY THEM AND THEN REPLACED THEM. HE ALSO MADE EXTRA COPIES OF THE NEW KEY, AND WAS SURE TO RETURN THE OLD KEY. HIS SERVICE CALL WAS LESS THAN COMPETITORS.

HE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND CLEARLY WANTED TO LEAVE WITH THE JOB DONE AND DONE PROPERLY. HE WAS GOING TO CHARGE ME $100 BECAUSE HE WAS NOT HAPPY WITH HOW IT WAS DONE, IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR NOT HIM. HIS NORMAL RATE IS $55/HR.

SPOKE TO THE OWNER AT ABOUT 9 AM. HE SAID HE COULD COME OUT BY 3:30. GOT TO MY HOUSE BY 3:00. WAS VERY FRIENDLY AND PROFESSIONAL. GAVE ME VARIOUS PRICE OPTIONS FOR A NEW LOCK AND DIDN'T PRESSURE ME TO PICK THE MOST EXPENSIVE ONE. ALSO KEYED THE DOOR TO MATCH OUR HOUSE LOCKS SO NOW I ONLY HAVE ONE KEY (EXTRA $10 CHARGE). YOU CAN TELL HE CARES A LOT ABOUT HIS COMPANY AND ABOUT CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. COMPLETED THE WORK IN A TIMELY FASHION. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
