It took a few weeks for the repair, but that was indicated up front. I am very happy with the work Paul did, and would recommend him to anyone who needs their grandfather clock repaired. We now have the beautiful chime back.

It was a 5 star experience from the first phone call forward Paul Jahnke is a true professional and his work was exceptional. Additionally he shared information for us to keep things going well until his next maintenance visit. We highly recommend Paul Jahnke and look forward to seeing him again.

The thing I want to stress is trust. I have had other "clock repair men" into the house to work on the clock who wanted to replace the mechanism immediately and left the house without getting the clock working. The CLOCK DOCTOR took that approach soon after looking at the clock.
Mr Jahnke has advised me of the level of wear in the clock which I understand. He indicated that clock may last a few more years before the overhaul is needed.
If you want to have peace of mind and confidence in the skill of the clock man, I stongly recommend Mr. Jahnke to work on your clocks
The clock in question is:
Ethan Allen westminster chimes, circa 1975, manufactured in West Germany, grandfather clock

Paul Jahnke is the consummate professional! He came to our home in October, looked at the clock and then gave us various options as to how to get it running again. We chose the option of replacing the entire internal clock mechanism so that it wold be like a brand new clock.
Pal is extremely detailed and meticulous. He took his time inspecting our clock and explaining to us the options. Today, he returned and installed our new mechanism and the clock runs like new. He never left any tools or equipment in an inappropriate place. His attention to detail and his meticulous work ethic prevents him from doing that.
We are so thrilled that our clock is back and we will continue to use Paul Jahnke, Grandfather Time, for all of our future servicing and tune-up needs. If you have a Grandfather Clock, or other timepiece, that needs repairing, I would highly recommend Paul. You will not be disappointed.

"[Member Name], Upon checking my files, I do not have a customer by the name of Jacquelyn Wilkins. I would appreciate it if you would recheck your records and rescind this review. Thank you. Dear Ms. [Member Name], Since posting my original response to your October 23, 2014 review, I have been informed by Angie’s List that they have tried unsuccessfully to contact you several times over the past several weeks by emails and phone calls attempting to get a counter reply from you. As of November 18, 2014, you still have not responded, so I will assume that your review was erroneously posted to the wrong clock repair shop . I am sorry you have had a bad experience with another clock repairman. Should you need clock repair services in the future, I would be very happy to assist you. Thank you, GRANDFATHER TIME"
