Where we are straight with you
An emergency fix is about getting you safe and secure now; the tidy, permanent version sometimes follows in daylight once the right part is on hand. We will tell you when splitting it that way is the sensible call. For Porter Ranch jobs, that candor is part of the quote, not an afterthought.

We check ID and proof of ownership, residence, or authorization before any lock is opened or any key is cut. It is a standard step on every call, at any hour.
There is no honest flat rate we can print, because two jobs that sound alike can need very different work. We price it after we see it, and you approve the figure before we lift a tool.
A real person picks up overnight and on weekends, not a machine. Late-hour calls still include the standard ID and ownership checks.
