Technician supposed to be here at 8 am. Was a no show after 1 hour. If he were going to be late he should have called to reschedule or let me know arrival time. The man in the office blamed traffic. This might be true but does not excuse lack of communication.

Louis was early for our appointment, rekeyed the locks in under one hour, and went beyond what was required and tightened up door knobs for free. He was funny and honest and charged me a fair price. I highly recommend A-1.

The locksmith showed up 30 minutes early, but called ahead to let me know he would do so. He was cordial and performed the work in about 1 hour. He also switched some of the locks around so that the key would not be upside down.
