Nope, we sacked the psycho cleaner we had and she refused to give us our house keys back!!!! We got the locks changed and reported her to the police for that (and threatening us!!) as advised by the locksmith!

£8-12 quid per lock from your local hardware shop, a screw driver and about 5 minutes.

I've changed the locks on my house after every builder, plumber, plasterer and carpenter and Im only a girl

As Brumdaisy says, 5 minutes for a 6yo and minimal expense. Even uPVC are a doddle.
