What areas in London do you cover?

We provide locksmith services across London, Greater London, and surrounding areas, including Harrow, Ealing, Hillingdon, Watford, Brent, Camden, and nearby Home Counties. Our engineers are locally based, allowing us to respond quickly wherever you’re located.

If you’re unsure whether we cover your area, simply contact us — chances are we do.

How fast can you get to me?

In most cases, we aim to arrive within 30–60 minutes of your call, depending on your location and traffic conditions. Because we operate a network of local locksmiths, we can dispatch the nearest available engineer to you — especially for emergency situations like lockouts or break-ins.

We’ll always give you a clear arrival estimate before setting off.

Are you DBS-checked and insured?

Yes. All Watchdog Locksmiths engineers are fully DBS-checked and insured, giving you complete peace of mind when inviting us into your home or business. We work to professional standards and carry public liability insurance for every job we undertake.

Your security and safety are always our priority.

How much does a locksmith cost in London?

Locksmith prices in London can vary depending on the job, time of day, and type of lock. At Watchdog Locksmiths, our work typically starts from £59, and we’re upfront about pricing before any work begins.

There are no hidden fees, and we’ll explain your options clearly so you can make an informed decision.

Can I send you a picture of my lock first?

Yes — and we actively encourage it. You can send us a photo of your lock via WhatsApp or email, which helps us diagnose the issue in advance, provide more accurate advice, and arrive with the correct parts.

This often saves time, reduces costs, and avoids unnecessary delays.

Do you charge call-out fees?

No — we do not charge call-out fees. You only pay for the work carried out, and we’ll always confirm pricing with you before starting any job.

If we can’t fix the issue, you won’t be charged for the visit.
