  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
      I have extensive hands-on experience in automotive locksmithing and key programming, specializing in a wide range of vehicle makes and models. Over the past two years, I’ve successfully programmed and restored keys for more than 2,000 vehicles. I’ve had the privilege of working with top locksmith companies in Texas and Florida, where I gained valuable expertise in handling various complex cases. I hold a professional locksmith license in Texas, which is only granted to highly skilled professionals. While Florida does not require this license by law, my proven track record and industry experience speak for themselves. Additionally, I stay updated on the latest tools and technologies to ensure precise and reliable results for every customer.
  • How did you get started doing this type of work?
      I got started in this field because of my strong interest in automotive technology and problem-solving. Initially, I was fascinated by the intricacies of vehicle security systems and began learning about key programming and lock repair. Over time, I trained with experienced professionals and gained hands-on experience, which led me to work with top locksmith companies in Texas and Florida. The satisfaction of helping people in challenging situations and solving complex issues inspired me to build a career in this field.
  • What types of customers have you worked with?
      I have worked with a wide variety of customers, including individual car owners, fleet managers, rental companies, and dealerships. My clients range from those needing a single replacement key to businesses requiring comprehensive locksmith solutions for their entire fleet. Whether it's resolving emergency lockouts, programming advanced keys, or troubleshooting complex security systems, I strive to provide professional and reliable service to meet each customer's unique needs.
  • Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
      I specialize in programming the newest GM vehicles, including models like the Escalade, Corvette, and many others. These vehicles are often considered challenging to program, and many believe that only dealerships can handle them. But that’s not true! In fact, the list of vehicles I can work with is much larger. I can restore or program keys for almost any car, regardless of the make or model year. If you own a vehicle that needs a new or replacement key, feel free to reach out to me. I’ll get the job done professionally and reliably—at a much lower cost than the dealership price!
  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
      When hiring a locksmith or key programming provider, here’s some advice based on my experience working with both small businesses and leading companies in Texas and Florida. I’ve seen it all and can confidently guide you: Avoid "Free Estimate" Offers: Providers advertising "free estimates" are often using it as a tactic to secure you as a customer. The truth is, any skilled professional already knows how to handle common issues like car lockouts, spare keys, or all keys lost just from your description. Those who avoid giving a price upfront usually end up quoting significantly higher rates once on-site—sometimes several times the market price. Always Get a Clear Price Before Approving Work: Never allow work to begin until you’ve been given a clear and detailed price. Unexpected costs can easily escalate, leaving you with a bill far higher than you expected. To avoid these surprises, confirm the price first, then decide if you want to proceed. By following these two simple rules, you’ll save yourself hundreds of dollars and avoid unnecessary stress, all while getting the same quality of service.
  • What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
      Before speaking with a professional about your project, here are some key questions to consider: 1. **What is the specific problem?** - Clearly define your issue, such as "car lockout," "spare key needed," or "all keys lost." This helps the professional quickly understand your needs. 2. **What is your vehicle's make, model, and year?** - Providing these details upfront allows the professional to prepare the right tools and approach. 3. **Do you have any special requirements or concerns?** - For example, if you need same-day service, have a unique lock system, or require programming for a high-security key. 4. **What is your budget?** - Knowing your budget can help you evaluate quotes and ensure there are no surprises. 5. **Do you need the work done on-site?** - If you require mobile service, confirm this beforehand to ensure the professional can come to your location. Thinking through these questions will save time, ensure clearer communication, and help the professional provide an accurate estimate and efficient service.
