>a) does circumcision work? (I have had a fairly hit/miss experience with surgical fixes)

If you have phimosis, then circumcision and/or partial circumcision eliminates the probelm. If you have any questions about the surgery involved for a partial circumcision you might find my Circumcision Faq useful.

>b) are there alternatives like the three z-cut (?) that work?

There are several options in regard to surgery. If you haven't done so already then I'd suggest you have a look at the site that hosts this forum. Under the phimosis section there is detailed a range of treatments.

Hope this helps.
