I did some research on the internet, and found someone who charged significantly less. I took off the face of the clock and was taking off the screws that hold in the movement, I noticed that one of the pieces started to move that control the chimes, and I pushed it around a bit and the chimes started moving again. It’s been working for about a week now. I don’t know if it was incompetence or something else that caused them to tell me that it needed to be rebuilt. I just fiddled around with it and got it working. An experienced clock maker should have figured it out.
Description of Work: Estimate on work- I have a grandfather clock about 30 years old. The chimes stopped chiming. I took it apart and too the chains and the pendulum with them. The estimate was for 800 to rebuild it and 1000 for a new one. When I asked what was wrong with it, they said that all of the bearing were worn out and needed to be replaced.

He was very knowledgeable regarding the clock. Unfortunately, the problem with the clock was an extremely expensive repair which I needed to think about before committing to. He completely understood, and did not pressure me in to making a decision. He called me later that same day to let me know the exact price of the workings and installation. He was very thoughtful to even call me back a day or two later to let me know he had another appointment in my area soon, so that if I wanted to do the repair he could waive the trip charge. We are still in the process of trying to fix the clock ourselves, but Curtis with King Arthur clock is who we'll call if we feel like this is too over our heads! I highly recommend this company for a repair, especially on an expensive grandfather's clock. He is very trustworthy and knowledgeable.mother
Description of Work: The service technician, Curtis with King Arthur clock, came out to my house to diagnose a grandfather's clock issue. He arrived at the exact time I was expecting him. He cleaned all the parts and did a thorough investigation to figure out the problem. Unfortunately our clock needed all new works. He assured me that there was nothing wrong - the parts were just worn out - after 20 years! Since I'm getting this clock from my deceased grandmother, my parents are very much involved in the repair of this clock. He was very willing to talk to my mother on the phone and bring her up to speed with the problems.

I had an old clock from the 1970s retrofitted with a new mechanism so as to make the clock quieter and keep better time. Curtis (the clocksmith I dealt with) was exactly what you hope to encounter when you need professional assistance: knowledgeable, friendly, and responsive. He looked at the clock, related a few stories about these types of old clocks, described what he'd do to address our situation, and gave us a price. He told me that, due to the amount of work he had on hand, he wouldn't be able to get the clock back to me for about a week. Imagine my surprise when he called two days later! The work he did was perfect and exactly as he described, and now I have a quiet, cool-looking 70s-era clock on my desk that keeps perfect time. If you need a clock repaired, don't hesitate to take it to Curtis at King Arthur Clock.
Description of Work: Clock repair to fix a slow, loud mechanism.

I've used them for years! I've bought a couple of clocks from them as well! They give us an estimate and have the choice to do it or not. I've never had to make any return trip bc it wasn't fixed! They also gave me a TWO year warranty.
Description of Work: They repaired my coo coo clock.

We were pleased with quality of service. I am not too pleased with chimes chosen to install and the company did take an awfully long time to complete repair.
Description of Work: Regular maintenance on chiming clock, also new chimes installed to replace those that were worn out.
