Why choose us

Why Oldham
chooses us

Oldham's housing ranges from converted textile-mill HMOs and student accommodation to 1960s flat-roofed council maisonettes — our engineers know the lock types common to each. Issues like HMO communal door lock wear from high tenant turnover requiring frequent cylinder changes and UPVC multipoint gearbox failures on 1990s Decent Homes doors fitted to council maisonettes come up regularly here, and our engineers arrive ready to handle them. Oldham sits on elevated ground east of Manchester, served by the A62 and A627 into the city centre and the Metrolink tram network via Shaw and Crompton line. The A669 links to Saddleworth and the Pennines. Our engineers know the steep hillside street layouts of Glodwick and Coldhurst well. Oldham town centre has pay-and-display car parks near the Spindles Shopping Centre and Oldham Central Metrolink stop. Hillside residential streets in Glodwick, Werneth, and Coldhurst are generally unrestricted but narrow — our engineers are accustomed to parking on steep gradients for emergency callouts. Fixed price before we start. If we can't fix it, you don't pay.
