What recent reviews say

Yap Fook has built a loyal base over a decade with quick, accurate key duplication work. The owner (known as Uncle Yap) handles jobs with skill and ease, keeps detailed records for repeat work, and speaks multiple languages. Two reviewers hit unexpectedly high prices and one found the shop temporarily unavailable, though these stand apart from the consistent praise for speed, friendliness, and reliability across hundreds of jobs.

NextKey SG

5.0(7)✓ Google-verified

All seven reviews are five-star, with customers consistently praising NextKey SG's speed: most jobs finished same-day or under 30 minutes on-site. The team stands out for diagnosing repairs rather than pushing replacements, fabricating lost motorcycle and car keys from fragments or sketchy information, and handling specialty vehicles like BMW, Maserati, and Yamaha. Prices are noted as competitive across reviews.

Most calls get a response within minutes and arrival within 20-30 minutes, with jobs wrapped up quickly and prices quoted upfront. A small group report refusals based on location or lock type, and one customer received the wrong lock installed despite confirming the spec twice, getting only a $19 discount as remedy. Named technician Sean earns particular praise for speed, WhatsApp responsiveness, and accommodating manner. Bedroom and letter box locks, HDB doors, and key systems are the services most reviewers mention. The rare one-star feedback centres on rejecting jobs and communication gaps rather than workmanship."

Mark Yeo's service is undermined by charges that appear after the job is done. Two reviewers report being billed for work they did not request, with one paying SGD 60 for an unsolicited door unlock on top of a SGD 80 lock change. Speed of response and clean work merit praise, but trust in pricing remains the core issue.
