Half an hour down the A34 to the canal town.
The canal town with proper coverage at last
Stone's a prosperous little town with a High Street worth parking for, a marina full of weekenders, and — until now — no genuinely local auto locksmith answering its searches. From Kidsgrove we run straight down the A34 in about half an hour, covering the town centre, Walton, Stonefield, Aston and the villages out toward Barlaston and Tittensor.
Two Stone specialities: marina and towpath jobs, where car keys go canal-side more often than anyone admits (we make new ones at the car park while you dry off your pride), and commuter fobs from the station's daily grind — usually a £30 repair, occasionally a £70 spare, always cheaper than the panic suggests.
Everything we do, at your door in Stone
- Car key replacement — lost, stolen and all-keys-lost, from £180
- Spare keys — from £70, cut & programmed at your door
- Locked out — damage-free entry, around £150
- Key programming — transponders, remotes & smart fobs
- Ignition & steering lock repairs
- Fob repair from £30 · van keys & security
Guide prices for every job are on the prices page — and your reg gets you one fixed number before we set off.
Stone questions, answered straight
How quickly can you get to Stone?
Typically 25–35 minutes from Kidsgrove down the A34 — quoted honestly when you ring, fixed price agreed before we set off.
My car key went in the canal at Stone marina — seriously, what now?
You're genuinely not the first. If it's in the water it's staying there — ring us with your reg and we'll cut and program a replacement at the car park. All keys lost runs £180–£550 depending on the vehicle, fixed before we travel.
Do you cover Barlaston and Tittensor?
Yes — Stone, Walton, Aston, Barlaston, Tittensor and the A34 corridor between us. Same fixed-quote promise everywhere.
