I highly recommend this company. We needed a key for a camper. Joe drove quickly from Vista to Carlsbad and was very polite, professional and worked quickly. His charge was very reasonable. Ask for Joe!

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was extremely disappointing from start to finish.

I initially reached out for help with a faulty balcony door handle. Communication started off well, but things quickly became a long, drawn-out process full of delays, misquotes, and poor follow-through.

1. Weeks of Delays & Scheduling Changes
What should have been a straightforward job ended up taking over three weeks, with multiple reschedules, often last-minute. I repeatedly had to follow up to get updates.

2. Poor Responsiveness
After the work was finally completed, I spent weeks trying to get corrected receipts for my landlord. My messages on text were mostly unanswered until I warned that I would leave a review.

2. Wrong Part Ordered & Refund Delays
They charged me for a part that wasn’t used, admitted it, and said the trim cost would be refunded in 5–10 business days. It has now been longer than that, and still no refund. Once again, no response unless I chase them.

Overall, this felt like a mix of miscommunication, disorganization, and lack of accountability. The technicians themselves were polite, but the operational side of the business needs serious improvement. I would not recommend it unless they address these issues.

I wanted to share my appreciation w/Busy Bee owner (Jenny) re technician, Bryan. He was the epitome of professionalism from the moment he arrived — clearly identifying himself, respectful, courteous, and immediately focused on diagnosing the issue.

What stood out most was his depth of industry knowledge. He clearly explained my options. There was no upsell, no pressure — just an honest, thoughtful assessment and a secure, effective solution to my door lock problem.

These days it’s rare to encounter service business that blends industry expertise, professional integrity, and genuine customer care so seamlessly. I will definitely refer to friends, family + HOA management. Many thanks to Busy Bee and FIVE stars for Bryan!

We had a new housekeeper come to our place and she was so upset that she locked her keys in. We told her no problem, we had it covered and found El Cheapo and their great reviews. They 100% lived up to the reputation. They were here so fast to unlock the car and help her retrieve her keys. They were professional, easy to communicate with, super fast, and the pricing was extremely reasonable. It left her with a big sigh of relief and we are back on-track with our agenda for the day with barely a hiccup. Thank you so much, El Cheapo!

Concord Locksmith is amazing! Their service was extremely quick, and they were the only place in Concord that was actually able to make copies of my Master Lock key. The staff especially Michael at the counter, were friendly, professional, and knew exactly what they were doing. They even used original Master Lock keys, which was very nice. The price was great, and it feels good supporting a reliable local business. Highly recommend!
