Clock Repair and Movement Overhauls Through the Mail
I accept clocks and movements through the mail or UPS.
You may not have a local clock shop to take your clock to when it needs service. By using my cyber clock shop that is no longer a problem. I accept clocks through the mail eliminating the need to be within driving distance of a repair shop.
I do the same work you would get at a brick and mortar clock shop, the only difference is that instead of dropping your clock off in person, you mail it.
I repair modern and antique clocks including cuckoo, mantle, and grandfather/grandmother. I also repair electric and 400 day clocks.
I specialize in cuckoo clocks. Many clock shops will not accept cuckoo clocks for repair. I will welcome your cuckoo clock and the cost to repair it will be far less than at a traditional brick and mortar shop due to my lower overhead.
I do repairs on movements sent to me from clocks like grandfather and grandmother where it is not possible to send the entire clock. The movement is all I need to do the repairs.
I also work closely with Do-It Youselfers who want to work on their own clocks. I will do the movement overhaul leaving the rest of the project to you. This can mean a significant cost savings for you.
Clocks are repaired, tested and return shipped to you. I will invoice by PayPal when all repairs are done.
To have me fix your clock contact me to arrange service.
I repair movements made by Regula, Hubert Herr, Hermle, Seth Thomas, Sessions, and more.
Send the entire clock or just the movement. Either way, I make it easy to get your clock running again.
One example of what I have done.
Before: Below is a cuckoo clock as it was sent to me. Most of the internal working parts are in the cigar box. This clock was left in a garage for over 30 years before being discovered by a relative of the original owner. Circa late 1880's.
After: The same clock after repairs. Not only was the case restored but so were the movement, bird and whistles.
Consider This: A clock that tics once a second will tic:
A cuckoo clock will cuckoo:
A cuckoo clock runs at a faster beat than once per second so will do more tics over that same 30 year period. That's over 1 BILLION tics and nearly 1 MILLION cuckoo calls in 30 years! |
It is understandable that after all this a clock will refuse to run any more until it has been properly repired to correct the wear that happened along the way.
The good news is that after an overhaul, your clock will be ready to do it all over again.
