It was done quickly and after a week I noticed the cuckoo clock was making a strange noise. He came twice to moniter it and make sure all was well. He is very good with treasured time pieces. M Rinaldi
Description of Work: He repaired a cuckoo clock and a mantle clock

Very professional diagnosis, estimate, and servicing. Both items are antiques, with unusual mechanics for operation. He was familiar with both, and was confident of his ability to service. He has a backlog - which he noted "up front". With his talents, a backlog is no surprise! This is a guy who knows and loves clocks.
Description of Work: Repaired/restored antique clock and antique music box.

I think, he's the only one in Delaware that repairs clocks. I couldn't find anybody else. Actually, I've used his service for two clocks, and he's in the process of doing it for me now. The only complaint that I've had about him was he took 12 weeks to get the service done, but he told us about that upfront.
Description of Work: I've used B Gustafson Clock & Watch Repair several times. The last one must be within the last month, specifically August 22. We submitted the clock to be cleaned and to be checked out for proper operation.

My clock now works without stopping, although it needs regulating and cleaning. Brian has a long list of customers so there is a waiting list of several months but clearly is highly regarded by his customers. It is well worth my waiting.
Description of Work: Brian visited my house to adjust my antique long-case grandfather clock. Its mechanism had suffered slight damage in transit from the UK and Brian fixed that and made a future appointment to overhaul the mechanism completely.

Description of Work: He cleaned our antique, Scottish, grandfather clock because it was chiming 12 on each hour. Several things needed adjusting. Drove the clock face down to his workship in Milton, DE. and was told it would take several months because of other work that was ahead of ours. He promised to personally return it to our home which he did. He made sure that all was running correctly and that the chimes were functioning perfectly as well. Also tightened the hands on our Black Forest Coo-Koo clock while he was here and didn't charge for that. Was knowledeable enough to give us some history on the grandfather clock and was appreciative of us having the orginal weights. Enjoyed talking with him. Very thorough.

rs. We called for service on our Grandfather clock which hasn't been serviced for 11 years. We were expecting the worse since the clock has never been serviced since we bought it new 11 years ago. However, Mr. Gustafson knew exactly what he was doing and got right to it. He serviced the clock and even aligned the hands to strike when they are supposed to. We are very satisfied and highly recommend his service.
Description of Work: Our experience was very good with Mr. Gustafson. He was on time, professional and clean. His price was fair as well. He also called us a couple of weeks later to see if our grandfather clock was running correctly. We will definitely use him again when the clock is due for service again.

He is very professional and prompt. He calls two weeks later to see if everything is to your satisfaction. He gives you a three year notice when you should have maintenance done on the clock. He explained everything to me, but he didn't try to oversell me. He just made recommendations, but was not pushy whatsoever.
Description of Work: He made a house call to repair my grandfather clock.
