Jim's Clock Shop

I feel so fortunate to have found Jim, and right in my back yard. I was so sad when my beautiful clock stopped working, even with new batteries. Jim got it back, and got my pendulum working again too. Thanks Jim!!!

Jim is the ultimate professional. He really knows how to fix clocks! He is honest and fair with his estimates. He cares deeply about what he does and will not stop until he gets it right. He serviced three clocks for us. Jim is "a true and honest old world craftsman." I wouldn't trust anyone else with my clocks. He's the best!

Jim did a great job! We would definitely hire again.

Jim is a devoted, skilled craftsman who made our very old German Cuckoo clock work perfectly for the first time in years. When, almost a year afterwards, the clock's quail stopped "singing," Jim asked me to bring the clock in, even though it was a Sunday. He spent well over an hour of his time, to make the bird sing again. The sound of that charming clock makes us smile again, thanks to him. I cannot recommend him strongly enough.

The repair was done affordably and with great care.

Jim wasn't there when I brought the clock over, but his daughter was there so I wrote a note for Jim explaining what was wrong and my contact info and his daughter said he would look at it and contact me. Next day I got an email and a voice mail letting me know it was ready, simply a faulty battery connection that he tweaked and said he wouldn't charge anything since he felt he didn't do anything. I gave him $10.00 for his time anyway. I found him to be pleasant, passionate and knowledgeable about clocks, and honest. He could have made something up that was wrong with my clock and I would have been none the wiser. I will use him again if needed. Thanks Jim

Jim was lovely to work with. My clock was fixed quickly and inexpensively. I highly recommend!

Jim serviced both clocks, and machined a cog on a worn weight mechanism of the grandfather clock. He also repaired an antique mantle clock my daughter dropped. Jim services mechanical clocks at reasonable prices. He takes the time and is happy to explain the process to the customer. I would highly recommend him for any mechanical clock service/repair.

Jim did a wonderful job with my clock; I was in no hurry to get it repaired and his daughter was getting married, so it took a little longer than usual. We emailed regularly as he adjusted the time setting. And then there were no hands on the clock. He ordered some and decided they did not do the clock justice and sent them back. Then based on the image from a picture of the clock, he MADE a set of hands. Very happy!

Jim was very responsive. He called prompt;y after i left the clock for an appraisal and provided his price to provide a basic cleaning and appraisal. The cost was $55. Several days after I authorized the repair, Jim called to tell me the clock chime barrel was worn. The estimated cost for the replacement, including installation was $30. Jim obtained the part and completed the repair with one week after I authorized the additional work. I couldn't be more satisfied. (The cost for a prior repair nine years earlier was $200.)
