I actually called a long time local business before calling Val. They were not helpful and didn't seem to care about my issues. I went to Yelp and saw all of these excellent reviews, so of course I called! I'm so glad I did! What a great guy! He made sure that he could come out the same day as I called him, knowing that I was concerned! I won't ever call anybody else if I need a locksmith! He knows how to do business and is compassionate...I don't see much of that anymore. He runs himself ragged to make his customers happy. read more

Quick responses to my inquiries. Came out right away today at a time that worked with my schedule. Very customer service oriented. Will save Tapia Locksmith in my contacts in case I need a locksmith again! And will refer to friends and family. read more

We lost the chip key to our older truck. He was here promptly and had us up and running in no time. Very reasonably priced. The dealerships use him and they probably would have called him if I took it to the dealer. Beyond happy with the service! read more

Tapia has got it locked! Val is very fast&friendly. He'll help with retrieving keys locked in the trunk, getting gyms&wineries secured, you name it. He has reasonable prices&is basically on-call. When my next door neighbor had problems opening her mailbox at the apartment complex, he quickly came to the rescue. He's upgraded everything. Val can even tackle electronic keys. An amazing guy. read more

Val did great job programming the keys on my VW. Outstanding service and he genuinely knows what he's doing... Thanks again Val!

I would give Val 10 Stars if I could. He has helped several of my customers get their locks re-keyed and more. Last night , he with little notice came out to help one of my customers ion Sonoma replace the deadbolt and install a peep hole in her front door which she was unable to lock due to a faulty deadbolt or key. He patiently and very professionally replaced the customers deadbolt plus added additional security by installing what he calls BUMP HALT protection so that the lock would be nearly impossible to pick and prevent the use of a "Bump Lock" key to cause the tumblers to fall and allow entry to her home. Also his prices are very competitive and fair and I will be recommending him to all my friends and customers He is certainly someone you can count on to get the job done quickly and properly !! read more

Excellent, affordable, local service! Val replaced our front door lock with a combo keypad lockand matched our side door and garage door entry locks, all in less than an hour. Plus, he helped adjust our front door so it would latch more properly. Would recommend to everyone! read more

This is an amazing company. If I could give them 100 stars I would. Val's father Jesus answered my call to change the lock on my front door to make it more ADA compliant. Because of a disability I was unable to easily open the lock. Jesus, was courteous, friendly and masked. He worked tirelessly to resolve the problem with the lock and when it was resolved I was very happy with the results. Thank you Jesus. read more

Jesus and his son are so accommodating. Friendly and right on time with the appointment. I added some work and his son delivered the parts needed within 15 minutes. I would definitely use them again. read more

What a help! I was locked out of a toolbox on the back of my truck. Could not have had a better experience. Fast service REALLY FAST. Under 30 minutes from the time I called. He was professional and informative. Took his time to listen to what I wanted. Val was on time and very professional. I don't write to many reviews but the respect that was given today needed to be spread. Thanks again Val. read more

What a great guy! We phoned late in the afternoon on Thursday when a often-used door was stuck in the locked position. The locks are not standard and the repair required out of the ordinary work. Val recognized our problem, especially with the weekend looming and resolved our problem by late Friday afternoon. He is completely professional and his prices were more than reasonable. Thanks, Val! read more

My little brother lost his keys to his 07 Lexus is250. Went out to the lake lost them there. they left his car at the parking garage were it stayed over night. The next day I got Val's contact info, from a friend that works for Jimmy vasser told me he works on all there cars. I've also heard his name before so I called him. He showed up when he said he would. And straight to buisness just step back and let him do his thing. I'll be giving him a call for any future jobs I highly recommend him. thank you Val! read more

Val and his father are amazing! Very professional, always on time, incredibly hardworking, great quality of work, value for your money. I have used them for both work and personal. In both instances, I was impressed that they could solve the problems as well as offer solutions. I highly recommend Tapia Locksmith and will use them again! read more

Val is just awesome! Amazing customer service and quality to his work. You can tell that he really cares about what he does. I called him to see if he could take a job re-keying my home and he well exceeded what i expected. He is professional and works really hard. I would easily recommend him if you need a great locksmith and I will continue to call Val for any future needs. read more

Don't waste any more of your time thinking you'll find a better person for the job... Val has come to my rescue 3-times in the last month, he has shown up on a Saturday, and even waited around to see if someone was going to show up with a key. He has been early for a Sheriffs Lockout with a Tenant who was Evicted.. Very Professional and so pleasant of a person to talk too. You can't find a better person.. Thanks Val read more

this man is very reliable, very trustworthy, and amazing at his craft. I spoke to a few locksmiths before finally having him come out to my car, even had one come out, mostly I felt they all were just trying to take advantage of the situation and charge whatever they wanted hoping I did no research. Val on the other hand; reliable, efficient and honest through-and-through. would greatly recommend if ever in need of a lock smith. read more

They arrived about 10 minutes after I called and had my lock opened in seconds. Was cheaper than any previous locksmith I've ever dealt with. Extremely clean and professional, even brought a mat to crouch on so as not to get the carpet dirty. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

I wish I would have called Val sooner. I locked my Kia Optima rental keys in the trunk - without a trunk release in the car. 2 Roadside assistant vehicles and countless hours later and no one was getting into that trunk. At 4:30 am I texted Val, who would get back to me so early!?! I was in my trunk by 8am. THANK YOU! read more

These guys rock! Super fast and very nice.

If you're looking for a locksmith, no need to look further. These are the ones! Napa fires burning, our 1999 LandCruiser key deteriorated. The Toyota dealer wanted $350 for one key. Ouch! Val and Jesus came to the house in 20 minutes and made a primary key and a spare (two keys) for $160! Totally professional with great results. They are now our go-to locksmiths. Highest possible recommendation. read more

I found Val on Yelp after I almost tore my key in half in my front door. I just bought my home and came here to search for the best reviews on locksmiths in my area. Val popped up first and I can see why. I called him and we scheduled an appointment for the next day, he arrived on time and was finished in about 10 minutes or so. He is friendly, kind and genuine. It was so easy and I already feel safer having my home re-keyed by Val. I highly recommend Val and Tapia Locksmith. Thank you so much! read more

They were absolutely amazing and quick. I called the day after Christmas since I lost my car keys and Val came out super quick and worked his magic. Thank you so much again. Would definitely recommend to everyone who looses their keys. Plus I ended up saving well over 300 bucks instead of going down to hynduai which was like a 45 minute drive. read more

These are really good people - kind, hard working, honest... I believe this is a family business. I've spoken with the father and son. They came out to change my locks. When I had questions and concerns, they came back out to make sure everything was okay. Admittedly, it did take a while to get one of my calls returned, but I know they are very busy. I just called back and all was fine. I highly recommend them. read more

We've just moved in to a new home and Val was a fantastic help with re-keying all the locks, and reprogramming a digital lock. He was incredibly professional and friendly, explained everything in simple terms, and gave us advice on our future options. We were very impressed and would certainly use again. Thanks! read more

My wife and I just purchased a new home and needed to have the locks rekeyed. We called and Val, the company's owner, helped to schedule our appointment. He had no problem scheduling a Saturday appointment time that was convenient for us. Val arrived at the scheduled time. He rekeyed our locks quickly and with skilled craftsmanship. He also repaired the security lock on our sliding glass door. The level of service went above and beyond our expectations. Val had a professional and friendly demeanor and is very knowledgeable. We will definitely use Tapia Locksmith's service again and will highly recommend it to others. read more

Called them after I got locked out of my car at a car wash. The person my insurance provided couldn't open up my car. Tapia locksmith arrived within 10 minutes. Very friendly and great customer service. read more

Mine was a simple request: re-key two locks. Friday was going to be a busy day, and the locksmith visit was just a small part of it. it went smooth as silk; Tapia showed up when promised, got the work done at the price quoted, and got out of there. A perfect experience! read more

This guy is untrained and does not know what he is doing... Car was running... just needed extra keys made... he messed up the computer and electronics so now the car does not start at all... did not put back together what he dismantled to get the car running... This guy does more damage than good read more

I highly recommend this company. I called Raul and asked him to come and change my locks and he did so a day later. He installed deadbolts and re-keyed all the locks with my house . Val and his father were excellent personable and took pride in their work. read more

Val was very helpful, responsive, and flexible. He was also very fast in getting done what needed to be done. When my lock was damaged and didn't need replacing, he just fixed it instead of calling it broken so he could charge me for the full price. He was also very professional. read more

Incredible service! We have an older Toyota Camry, 20 years old but was barely driven, that's key had been stripped from use and the car wouldn't start. The dealership wanted $380+ for one copy of the new key that wouldn't be ready for 2 weeks. I called on the Sunday before Labor Day just to leave a message about prices and to make an appointment for later in the week. Val picked up and within 20 minutes was at the house making two new copies of the key for almost a third of what the dealership was charging. The whole process took less than an hour and the keys are still working great. I love to support local businesses, especially the ones that deserve more than 5 stars. If you want great service at a great price, look no further. read more

Tapia Locksmith has helped me out twice now. Each time Val was on time, friendly, professional and clearly skilled at his trade. The first time was a bit of an emergency and I can't say how much I appreciated that Val answered his phone each time I called (numerous other locksmiths that I called did not answer their phones and talking with a real life person during an emergency just can't be beat!). I also appreciate that, in my opinion, he went above and beyond his "call of duty". I also like that he clearly takes pride in his work and genuinely likes to help people. I highly recommend Tapia Locksmith read more

It was a Sunday afternoon, with an 11 year old in tow, and after about 20 attempts to call the 24 hour emergency maintenance crew in my complex... I received NO answer, I finally decided to call a locksmith. Again! No answer from a few locksmiths that have "24 hour" service. I finally called Tapia... WOW! He answered and I was SO relieved! Nice, kind, and very informative! This company showed up right away and opened my door within 10 minutes... AND in tact!!! I truly appreciate this company's hard work and customer service. Price was very reasonable and fair. Great company!!! read more

Do yourself a favor, and call Val. Having just endured a brutal nigh are of a move into American Canyon, including a traumatic real estate transaction and an equally traumatic experience with bad movers, we called Val to have all of our locks changed. He was super busy, but answered his phone every time, showed up, and even tackled our broken sliding door lock, which he wasn't prepared for, since we discovered it after we had called him. He had so much trouble with this lock, but never once showed his frustration, and refused to give up...even though his Girl had made him a special dinner and was waiting for him to come home. We practically had to kick him out so he could finish after the weekend! Sweet, honest, fast, and fair-priced. He installed a keypad lock on our front door, so we will probably not require his services in the future, but we wanted to give him his due kudos all the same. Stop scrolling, and call Val. read more

Val is incredible. I thought I had locked my smart key inside my 2009 VW CC . He met me at 7:30 Am and tried picking the lock first and when that didn't worked, he cut spare emergency key! He was so patient and kind! We would highly recommend Val. As a business owner myself.....its hard to find good honest hard working people! So if you ever end up a locksmith, Vals your guy. read more

From someone who losses or locks them selves out of their car or house often I highly recommend this business! I am a big advocate and fan of customer service. Val is reliable and his prices are very reasonable. I am very protective of my family and friends, but I feel comfortable and confident recommending my family and friends to use his service when needed! Thank you read more

Great Locksmith! Helped with an automotive key issue (Car security would not recognize key anymore.) Turned out it wasn't just a key issue. I had a faulty immobilizer unit which is the part that reads the key's transmitter. So I bought one online, installed it, and he gave me a deal on the second service call to program the existing, and new keys I requested. Came out the second time and got my car and keys all running flawlessly. Gave quote over phone, stuck to it, and did not try to sell me things I did not need. Came out even though I was a little out of his service area. Very friendly, honest and professional. Definitely recommended! read more

If all service calls were as expertly and swiftly performed as this, I'd be tempted to break things in the house. I can't imagine better treatment. Val was precisely on time, and performed everything we needed expeditiously and for a very reasonable price. He installed a digital security door lock, worked with us to get it working correctly (something outside of actual locksmith work), and re-keyed six other locks. He was conscientious and made sure everything worked perfectly. read more

I was locked out of my car and was running late for work. It was around 6:45 am, and Val Tapia was able to meet me in 30 minutes. I was very impressed with his prompt arrival. He even stayed on the phone with me to figure out ways I could unlock the car myself. Val is not only a professional and honest businessman, but genuinely cares about his clients and their well being. Pros: 1. Quick and easy 2. Always answers his phone 3. Reliable and diligent 4. Very knowledgable about his trade Cons: 1. Honest to a fault. read more
