I was afraid my locks were all broken so I called a few window lock repair companies and Fixit Pros was one. Shimi from Fixit Pros called back first, and asked me to text some photos I take with my phone. I did just that and got a call back soon after. Good news -- my locks are okay, I just needed to clean out some debris so the window could close all the way and allow my lock to lock.
I was so happy because the second company I called wanted to send someone out for a fee and they would assess my windows and map out a whole strategy and ... you get the idea.
I am so thankful for an honest person in Shimi, who saved me a bundle. Shimi said they just want to sell you a new window. So true! But my windows will last a little longer as long as I can lock them. I was having so much trouble with burglars, and I paid for door lock after door lock after door lock that I was going broke. It turned out, it was the window they were using, unbeknown to me until I happened upon the problem while cleaning the one window and it fell inward. Got that taken care of.
I am grafeful for honest Shimi and if I do need to repair or replace my windows I will call him. Thanks Shimi!
