Brian made time to come the day after Thanksgiving. I called Cityside in the morning and he came early afternoon. Very professional, presented all options without pressure. Broken deadbolt now replaced/installed right. Great service!

I had a great experience with Brian - I scheduled work with him for late in the afternoon, and when he was running late by a half hour, he gave me a call. Swooped in, made some great suggestions, had everything he needed already in his truck, and knocked out a the work quickly, professionally, and efficiently, with no problems, and for a very reasonable rate for the scope of the job. Wow! Would call him again, no question about it.

Report
Perfect! Our patio door lock needed to be repaired and eventually replaced. It was an Anderson door from Home Depot that never worked great and that neither the installer nor manufacturer could make work for us 9 years ago following initial installation. It had loose components that I had MacGyvered into working for the first 9 years. This time I couldn't find any way to restore it and was so glad to find Brian at Cityside. He was pleasant and informative by phone and he was prompt and effective in person. He'd had enough experience with problem doors like ours and had a solution ready

Brian did a great job rekeying two interior locks. He responded quickly to my voice mail, scheduled for a near-term day, came right on time, did a careful job, and charged a very reasonable price. He is personable and professional. Very pleased with the service.
