General Information....
I specialize in full service for most types of vintage and
antique American-made shelf, mantel, and small wall clocks, including both spring and weight powered models. I
also service some other clocks, and reproductions.
Beginning May 2022, due to advancing years and mobility issues following a fall, I am downsizing and relocating my shop to a small ground level location at the same address. I am now open for limited hours by appointment only. I can no longer accept very large or heavy clocks.
Mail-In Clock Repair Service....
Complete clocks:
I must say up front that shipping complete clocks around the
country is very risky and can be quite expensive. Even with
careful packing, after the return trip, your clock may still
require minor on-site adjustment for proper operation. If you are
unable to bring your complete clock to my shop in Trappe, Maryland
(eastern part of Maryland), I recommend that
you try to locate a shop with a good reputation in your local
area. If none is available in your city, I would welcome the opportunity to serve you. Please contact me for
proper packing instructions before shipping your clock. I am not responsible for any loss or damage during shipping.
Bare movements:
If you are someone with the necessary skills to
properly remove the clockworks from the clock, and to reinstall
and adjust it upon return, consider shipping just the clock
movement. PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE SENDING CLOCKS OR MOVEMENTS. I will determine if it is a movement that I can service, and let you know what will be involved during reinstallationm and I will give you
instructions for proper packing and shipping, email: bobby@greenfieldclockshop.com
Because of space limitations and the special tools and methods
required to properly service some unusual mechanisms, there are a
few types of clock that I cannot accept for service (see below).
Before sending your clock, please contact
me to be sure that service is available for your
clock.
Thank you for considering my shop for your next clock
service or repair.

I do not service Atmos, perpetual motion clocks,
Schatz Ships Bells, platform escapements, watches, chronometers,
grandfather clocks, small alarm clocks, and cheap "junk" clocks that are
either unrepairable or not worth the cost to repair. I service
some 400-day "anniversary clocks", French clocks, and
other speciality clocks on a case-by-case basis only after
consultation with the owner regarding the special issues and
costs of servicing these clocks. I cannot service any clock with
a "Radium" dial. |
