ESTIMATES <!--Written By Ern Grover--><Last updated 01OCT97-->

 

 

Thank you for trusting us with the care of your heirloom. We will do our best to restore your clock and win your appreciation.

Since most of our work is with clock restoration and repair, the term "clock" will be used through this statement. However, this statement applies to any item brought to our shop for repair, whether it's a clock, music box, or other item. Once your clock is cleaned and serviced by us, it carries our one-year warranty on parts and service.

Remember, periodic maintenance is essential in keeping your clock happy. Many manufacturers recommend oiling every couple years, and cleaning every eight to ten years, depending upon the environment.   

You’ll be requested to render a 50% “go ahead” authorization deposit when we prepare your estimate.  There is NO charge for the estimate, however, in the event we come to your home, you’ll still be liable for the service call charge.

Terms, Warranties, Limitations and Disclaimer. Please read

We have a fully equipped machine shop to restore and manufacture parts for your clock.  Our staff is able to duplicate case moldings, cut gears and make just about anything necessary to get your clock back in running order.

 

ESTIMATE Fee:  NONE

SHOP LABOUR: We will give you a written estimate for the cost of repairs.

SERVICE CALL TO/FROM YOUR HOME FOR GRANDFATHER CLOCKS or OTHER LARGE REPAIR ITEMS is available at a nominal fee.  Please inquire.

YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED BY U.S. MAIL OR INTERNET E-MAIL OF A FIRM REPAIR ESTIMATE 

               Prices listed are for fine quality workmanship. We are not cheap, but our work lasts! All repairs carry a one-year limited warranty for actual work performed on the movement, exclusive of time-keeping adjustments, leveling, damage from tampering or misuse, shock, abuse, or environmental conditions which contribute to corrosion and wear. Additional service calls to your home are exclusive of the repair warranty. For grandfather clock follow-up work, however, you are charged only for travel; only the actual work performed on the clock is warranted.

               No clock is fully warranted unless we have cleaned and restored the movement. If your clock had to be oiled to get it running, we cannot guarantee its running order. It will likely need cleaning and rebuilding within a couple of years.

For more details, read our warranty statement.

·        If, after work begins that you have authorized, we discover additional parts that are defective, we will contact you with a revised estimate. At that time you may decline to have the unit repaired, and you may pick up your item. If you mailed the item to us, the item will be returned at your expense (we will require compensation for shipping and insurance expenses). 

·        Please Understand: We provide only a dollar amount of the estimate and basic failed part descriptions. We will not release specific part number information prior to the completion of repairs. These part numbers / descriptions represent an investment of time and resources.

·        The estimate that we provide is a dollar amount that is broken down by parts, tax and service charges. Estimates given are good for 30 days only.

WE ARE CLOSED SUNDAY · PRICES SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE ·
