Where we work

Covering Rochester & the surrounding villages

A lot of our Rochester work happens on the Medway City Estate. It's a working estate — units, yards, delivery drivers, people on shift — and a lost or snapped key there isn't just an inconvenience, it's a van that can't go out. We come to the unit or the yard, cut and code the key on site, and you're moving again without a recovery truck getting involved.

Rochester station is the other one that catches people. It's a commuter station, so cars sit there all day and sometimes all weekend, and there's a particular kind of bad evening that involves getting off a train after a few days away and finding the car key isn't where you thought it was. We'll meet you at the station car park and sort it there.

Also covering

Areas we cover around Rochester

  • Strood
  • Chatham
  • Frindsbury
  • Borstal
  • Wainscott
  • Cuxton
  • Halling
  • Cliffe
  • Higham
  • Hoo St Werburgh

Around the high street, the castle and the Esplanade, it's mostly visitor parking and short stays — keys locked in boots, fobs that have stopped working, keys dropped somewhere between the car and the cathedral. Across the river in Strood and up towards Wainscott and Frindsbury, it's driveway work: spare keys, all keys lost, and the occasional key snapped off in an older ignition.

Rochester's vehicle mix runs the full range, from work vans and older diesels through to newer cars with proximity keys, so we carry blades and programming kit for both.

Common questions

The things people ask first

It depends on your vehicle. Older non-transponder keys are at the cheaper end, while smart and proximity keys for newer cars cost more because of the programming involved. Most standard replacements fall somewhere between £120 and £300. Give us your registration on the phone and you'll get a firm price before anyone comes out.
