Landlord only provided one set of keys, cheeky to ask to cover cost of two?

We have just moved in to our new home, it’s a 3 bed and it’s me, my partner and two children who live here. The landlord has only provided us with one front door key. Now at first I was a bit like meh, whatever. But after having been to get a new one cut today and it costing almost £30 I’m feeling a little miffed. Is it unreasonable to ask for the landlord to cover the cost? I just don’t get how it would have worked practically with one key when we are both in and out of the house at seperate times most days.

Mines £80. It's one of those new type ones that you have to provide a code before they will cut the key.

30 quid!!!!! It's 3 for a tenner in B&Q!

£30? Where are you getting it cut?! Normally it's a few quid to get a key cut
