He got my door open and all sorted withing 15 minutes.

From the owner: Taylor's locksmiths was started in 1948 by John Taylor of Gateshead. John served his country in the…read more2nd world war as a code breaker and lock specialist for the military. Once John had left the army he set about selling safes to local businesses in Gateshead and Newcastle but found that as locks changed over time his service was invaluable. John was the first locksmith in Gateshead and still to this day it is a family run business, ran by the Taylor family. We are a father, son and daughter business. Today we are now a mobile locksmith business that covers, Gateshead, Newcastle, Northumberland, Sunderland and Durham. John always made his business with local people in the community count, he truly believed in a strong community that did a favour for a favour and we still do. For Taylor's locksmiths, it's not all about the money, its about local business working with a local community, helping others when its needed, in an emergency in the middle of the night.

I've been back several times now, to bring new life to old shoes, and I have to say that these…read morechaps are fantastic. En route to town, I dropped in my solid favourite heels to be fixed up, and was greeted by the ever friendly and welcoming guys that man the shop. I'm sure one of them must be Steve, and one day I might venture to ask which one, but on this occasion I wasn't so brave as to make introductions. It costs just over a fiver to get re-heeling done, and I've never been in without being able to collect the shoes about 30 minutes later. Basically, it gives you enough time to pop off for a coffee, take in the world, and pop back again before going about your day. Of course, if you need keys cut, and the various other cobbler odd jobs, they're ready to provide good service for that too. They're always smiling, they're cheap and cheerful, they're fantastic and I've them to thank for not having to buy new shoes. It's always a pleasure. Cash only, but as Hannah says, there's a cash machine right next door!

Steve's is probably the most traditional business in the whole of Headingley - amidst a sea of…read morestudent pubs, bars and modern delis, it stands proud, providing ye olde cobbling and keycutting services for anyone who so desires. The keycutting services are as fast as they are cheap (very) and on the two occasions I've needed a key cut here, I've had no problems with the finished product working in my doors. Can't say I've ever needed to have a shoe cobbled though. I'm a firm believer in the if-a-shoe's-broke-bin-it school of thought, so I can't comment on Steve's shoe skills, but I'd wager they're as professional as his key-cutting skills are.
