The work was done accurately and on time. The owner was very helpful in explained how to hang the clock, adjust the time and maintain accurate time. He made sure I understood the procedures before I left. Would recommend to others.

No issues.
Description of Work: I had the 'motor' replaced in a clock. Seemed a little pricey for what was done especially because when I picked it up they were charging the same price for a different service to another customer.

Clockworks made a house call and spent a great deal of time cleaning & re-setting but unfortunately, they could not get it to chime again. This was our fault for not keeping the gears oiled, etc. They tried their best. They offered to take the "innards" of the clock back with them for further work, however at the moment, I just can't afford any more repairs.
Description of Work: My 30-year old grandfathers clock stopped chiming. It's still keeping time, but it no longer has the beautiful Westminster chime sound.

Description of Work: Mr. Williams arrived at my home on time and was very cordial. He checked our grandfather clock which was not keeping time and chiming improperly. He described a couple of reasons why it could be operating in this fashion and then set to work. He oiled and cleaned the "workings" of the clock and was describing how the clock functioned while doing so. He impressed me with his knowledge and ability and it was easy to see he loved his work. He left with two other clock that have stopped working. He called within the week to report his findings of the two and what each one would need to resume working order and gave me a price for each. He described the history of the older antique clock and the approximate date that it was made.

The work was provided by a husband and wife team who came onsite on a weekend. They maintain a shop for customers to bring clocks, watches, etc., but were willing to make a house call on a weekend after shop hours. They responded to our request promptly.They confirmed the appoinrment time prior and showed up at our house exactly on time. They were very professional and courteous. Quickly repaired the clock and set it back up so that it would work after being in storage for two years. Clock is keeping excellent time now. Offered advice on how to best care for and maintain the clock. Will continue to use for any clock watch repairs.
Description of Work: Serviced Grandfather Clock. Repaired pendulum and clock works that had been in storage for two years and no longer working. Explained functions of clock and how to maintain and keep working.

It is just a pleasure to go here! No worrying about battery types or fidgeting to get the back off and in etc. They do it all so effortlessly and for not much more than the battery itself.

They were great. They suggested a lower cost repair than I came in thinking I needed. I thought that was very fair. They were very patient in explaining how to keep it running.

When I took my damaged clock to the shop, they looked it over with me and asked some questions to fully assess the damage. They informed me of the approximate age and origin of the clock, which I had not known previously (and was pleasantly surprised by!). The repairs were done within three days even though they estimated that it might take a week (and I thought a week would have been fast!). The repair work was done very well and the price seemed very reasonable to me. I am quite happy with the results. When I picked up the clock, they gave me advice about hanging it to ensure that it operates at its best and won't fall again. They were very friendly and seemed to genuinely care about my clock.
Description of Work: I took my antique wooden wall clock for repairs after it fell off the wall and was damaged. They repaired one loose number on the clock's face, a chipped corner of the wooden case, fixed the bent face of the clock, and repaired the door so it closes smoothly. They also cleaned the clockworks and ensured that the chime worked properly and that it kept proper time.

My grandmom's clock had not worked in years and I was ready to hang it on our freshly painted wall. When I removed it from our crawlspace, I realized it had no bevel on the face of the clock (the piece of convex glass that covers the face is the bevel). I don't know anything about clocks, so when I arrived at the store, I assumed they had bevels of all shapes and sizes. The owner asked where it was and I said, and quot;I don't know. Do you have one?and quot; He laughed but then looked on the floor at a pile of bevels he had collected over the years. He picked one up, placed it on the clock and unbelievably, it fit my grandmom's clock! It was fate! I was supposed to come to this store. Apparently, that bevel had been sitting there for years, just waiting for me! I needed the quartz replaced (it used to be a wind up clock but somewhere along the way it had been changed to a clock with a battery), too. The owner gave me the option of standard quartz or slightly better one. Since they both worked the same, I chose the standard quartz. Most of the money I spent on this clock repair was on the bevel and the labor involved to weld it onto the clock and make it an exactly perfect fit. I arrived in the morning on a Thursday and it was finished by that afternoon. I picked it up Friday morning. I had my 21 month old daughter with me and it was raining buckets. The owner was so nice, he carried the clock to my car in the pouring rain. I would definitely recommend Clockworks to anyone. The people are nice, they quality of the work is excellent and I felt they took good care of my 60+ year old clock. I have nothing to compare the price to, as I have never had a clock repaired before, but from what I have read about other clock shops, the price I received was comparable to others.
Description of Work: Installed a bevel on a 60+ year old clock (which was missing the bevel) Removed an old quartz and replaced it with a new one, including a new battery

They sell clocks, watches and do repairs. They are extraordinary for clock and watch repair and also have a limited selection of new and used clocks. It is an interesting place; I stopped in because I used to drive past them all the time and I needed a watch band. They are really nice people and their pricing is cheap. I love going in there.

The price wasn't unreasonable; it wasn't cheap but it was a fair price. They were pleasant and they took about a week to fix it.

I had inherited a grandfather clock and had moved it from another state. I looked at the Miller Howard website and couldn't figure out how to really set it up so I looked for a clock repair person. I scheduled an evening appointment. They were delayed due to traffic but none the less they showed up. They also called to let us know they were running late. When they looked at the clock they said that they could just set it up for $125 or they could take it in and do a total overhaul for $425. It hadn't been run in 3 years but we thought we'd take our chances. It took them around an hour to oil the gears, set up the weights and try it out. It is now keeping perfect time and chiming every 15 minutes.
Description of Work: Tuned up and set up grandfather clock.
