You hear the figure on the phone first.

The changeover between tenants

When a tenancy ends, you have no reliable way of knowing how many keys exist. Copies get cut for partners, family, cleaners and friends over months or years, and none of that comes back with the two handed to the agent. Changing the locks at changeover is not about the old lock being faulty, it is about the new tenant being the only person who can open the door.

Being based in Burton, we can turn these around promptly, which matters when a void week costs rent. Where it suits the way you run the property, we key doors alike so one key runs the front and back, which is far easier for tenants and for you. For a portfolio, we keep the specification consistent so a future replacement is straightforward rather than a fresh puzzle each time. Our guide to reasons to change your house locks and the piece on changing the locks on a property cover the ground.

The same applies to owner-occupiers who have lost keys or want a fresh start after moving in; the fix is the same clean changeover.
