We can replace your broken or worn mainspring quickly and efficiently.
Another common problem is that mainsprings over time become "set" which means they will not expand to their orignal size, and thus preventing your clock from running the duration of hours or days that it used to.
We use only high-quality parts to ensure long-lasting performance.
Over time the pivot holes that the clock gears (arbors) rotate in will get worn and elongated. When this happens your clock will stop and need to have those holes repaired with new bushings put in place. Careful attention need to made to ensure the center of the holes line up with the original position.
Regular cleaning and maintenance is crucial for the longevity of your clock. We use ultrasonic cleaners and will clean and inspect your clock to ensure it is in great running condition.
We specialize in restoring vintage clocks to their former glory. Skilled in repairing and preserving antique timepieces, we can replace polish and replace arbors on gears that have worked for centuries.
If you have a modern clock movement or one that is not economically feasible to restore to working condition, we can look into the option of replacing the entire movement.
A regular checkup may be all you need to make sure the oil on the pivots have not dried up or become contaminated.
Sometimes clocks may work, but are not striking in the correct sequence they should be or the escapement may not be aligned properly so that it can keep time properly. We can make the adjustments required to get your clock running normally again.
