He ripped off my 80+ father cleaning clocks. I Inherited a valuable clock from my father. Charged us $900, which we paid. Kept delaying getting it to us. We finally said we are coming to get it. He said it was fixed. It wasn’t. Returned it. Kept delaying it. Again we went and picked it up. This is all taking place in a year’s+ time. I would call him a shister!

I have a grandfather clock that I inherited from my father that was no longer working. It is a family heirloom so I obviously wanted to have it repaired. This gentleman came out and said that he would have to take the clock back to his shop and have it cleaned up and fixed. He charged me 250 for the estimate and took the clock with him. This was in the spring. He did not come back until September, but finally brought the clock back to put back together. He said that he would have to glue the striker arm on and let it sit, and that I was not to turn it on for a few hours. I said that I was not comfortable with that because he would not be able to demonstrate that it worked properly. He said that he would come back if it was not working. It did not work, so he did end up coming back out to repair it. He came back out and got it to temporarily work, but a few minutes later it stopped working again. I tried to get him to come back out to repair it, but I was never able to. I finally had to take him to court to get my money back which I did.
