Nearby Antique Lamp Repair in Ashburn

When a recommended lamp-repair shop told me that my antique lamp could not be repaired, at first I was upset. But then I heard of Angie's List, where I found Milton's Chandeliers listed. Nor only did Milton repair the lamp with no problem, having it ready by the promised day, both he and the other personnel there were as welcoming and friendly as possible, making a visit there a real pleasure. So, it was a double success: I found Angie's List, and I found Milton's!

I brought my mother and her antique lamp to Alan's for repair. He was professional and knowledgeable and repaired it within the time he estimated and for the price we expected.

Milton's did a quality job repairing and rewiring my antique floor lamp, at a reasonable price. Highly recommended.

Service was excellent. Staff was professional and friendly, and had expert knowledge. They made cost saving recommendations and did excellent quality work.

Great service at the right price. Not only do they fix lamps, lanterns, and chandeliers, they sell them too!

Milton's Chandeliers was wonderful. Everyone was friendly, the lamp was fixed quickly, and the price was unbeatable. I highly recommend Milton and his team.

I am totally satisfied with each and all of the repairs and fixes. Mostly that consistued of putting in new switches and rewiring, I also got new shades for several of them.

Work was performed in the time promised. It is an old timey sort of business run by husband & wife that some have had difficulties dealing with,but I found no problems dealing with them.

Oscar did the repairs and he is very helpful. They have a large selection and they offer a good price. Anything they don't have you can order by catalog. The repair was very reasonable. They also cleaned the ginger jar lamps so they looked like new. They were very prompt with the repair and I was very pleased.

When I brought both lamps in, he fixed the floor lamp on the spot at no cost. It took four days to get the table lamp totally redone and it works beautifully, providing two different levels of lighting, which is a big improvement. Milton was fast, efficient, inexpensive, and very thoughtful about the work. I would go back in a minute. Their workshop looks like Aladdin's Cave--quite wonderful.

The service went well. They understood exactly what I needed done. They completed the work promptly. We dropped the lamps off at their shop and picked them up at our convenience after they called to say they were ready. They were very nice and complimentary of the lamp I took in. The lamp was older and antique. I was very happy they were able to keep the lamp working. Their pricing was rather reasonable.

Professionalism and general courtesy was lacking from the time we walked into the shop. However, Alan's seemed to be the kind of place that doesn't exist anymore, like a old radio repair shop which we thought was just what we needed to add a ceiling mount and a drop down light bulb fixture to hang in our 1940's globe. After some test fits of crude chains, we finally convinced Alan that we wanted clean lines, chrome piping and ball chain supports. My wife is a licensed interior designer (NCIDQ) and gave him the exact dimensions the globe was to hang - ceiling to fixture bottom taking into consideration the hieght of the kitchen island top it would be hanging above. The estimate was $100-$200. We left $100 deposit. When I arrived to pick up the lamp, Alan's wife?? was counting money behind the desk and ignored me and I waited for Alan. There was no-one else in the store. We retrieved the fixture from the back, which was piled in a corner and the parts were tangled. It took some time to untangle them, but when we did, I noticed that there were open areas in the ball connectors on the face of the globe that looked unfinished. Alan's response was "nobody's going to see that anyway" which is the furthest thing from the truth - these connectors are the only metal parts on the bottom/outside of the glass hanging fixture. Again, with some coersion, he found some simple screw in caps that covered the 3 unfinished areas - they looked pretty good. I attempted to lift the fixture up to see the final product and how it would look hanging and the guy grabbed my arm and said "no, no put that down". At this point I was pretty disgusted with the whole experience I asked for the bill. The price was $250 ($50 more than the high point of the $100 - $200 estimate) and I needed to wait while he looked up, added and calculated tax on the three 1/2" metal caps that should have been there in the first place. That added another $2.58 to the bill - give me a break! I got the fixture home and looked at it more closely. The connectors used at the ceiling place were "S" hooks that you would use for shop work. I went to the local hardware store and got some chome connectors and replaced them myself. They look great. Well yesterday, the electrician installed the lamp and its 6" too long from the ceiling. It seems that Alan measured to the top, not the bottom of the globe as instructed when he fabricated the fixture. I won't go back to this establishment. I'd rather pay somebody else to fix his errors, substandard work and grouchy attitude. I might feel differently if this was bargain priced work, but I paid a premium price in comparison to what was done. Parts cost on this were likely less than $30. Its one of the worst experiences I've ever had with a service from every perspective.

We had a couple of antique lamps that we had inherited from various relatives, and there were very much in need of repair. The sockets were probably from the 1920s or 1930s, and the cords were downright hazardous. So, we took them in, and the lamps came back perfectly refurbished and functional.They even allowed us to choose cord colors that best matched the style and colors of the lamps. Very satisfied overall. And, even though it was expensive, we feel reassured it was done well and will not electrocute us or pose a fire hazard.

They were very accommodating , extremely courteous and professional . Certainly their services were worth two 60 miles trips. From DC suburban Maryland to DC suburban Virginia.

Please see above. I dud not list an address because I have seen his work at many locations.

Frank and his repairman provide outstanding, knowledgeable service and products. Their prices are very fair. In fact, for lamp repairs they are less than we expected to pay. They know lighting, all the fixtures and accessories. Because they repaired antique and old lamps for us, they made changes to bring them up to date. They were able to tell us wattage limits for these old lamps. (Note that they do not make cosmetic repairs to ceramic, glass or metal lamps. They explain the replacement parts they can provide and how those parts work compared to the original.) Their stock of lamp shades is very good and they know how to help you select shades. If you need a shade, bring your lamp so they can help you select a new one. Don't just guess by size or color; you need to see how the shade fits and works with the lamp. They also sell new lamps and lighting fixtures. They have an extensive selection of contemporary and traditional styles, and the products are top quality. Again, their prices are very reasonable and you know what you are getting.
