Alex from Nova Locksmith was incredibly responsive and professional. He re-keyed all the locks in my house so I can use a single key, refurbished the older ones, and even shared helpful maintenance tips. His work was thorough and high quality, and he took the time to explain everything clearly. Kind, reliable, and easy to work with — I’ll definitely call him again when it’s time to upgrade.

NOVA Locksmith did a GREAT job quickly replacing the locked doorknob at my backyard shed. Quick to reply to messages when I had a question, and punctual, letting me know his ETA. Professional, very experienced, and funny, which is always a plus!

Alex was great. Responsive, easy to work with, and always willing to help. When other locksmiths on Thumbtack said my Schlage smart lock couldn’t be rekeyed, Alex responded with confidence and scheduled quickly. He showed up on time and made short order of the project!
