Horological FAQs

We constantly receive e-mails enquiring about the provision of clock parts and items such as clock glasses, suspensions, mainsprings, winding keys etc. These are items that we purchase for ourselves for our own use but they are easily obtained from material houses. The clock parts we make at Horological Repair Service UK consists of anything that is broken or missing for a clock that cannot be obtained from material houses. An example of this would be clock wheels and pinions and most of the items we make are for antique clocks. We are also being asked to provide Valuations from written descriptions. This is not possible as  we would  have to view the article physically, as would any other reputable company, to give a written fair valuation which would be for insurance purposes only.

Do you repair Quartz clocks?

These clocks can have their movements changed depending on the type and size of the original and at a cost of  £10 to £20 depending if the original hands fit.  

Do you collect & deliver for repair?

Collection , delivery and setting up of a clock can be arranged. Normally this would be within a 10 mile radius from base and would cost from £15 to £30 depending on distance. If you are outside the 10 mile radius please apply for quotation.

Do you have a movement to fit my clock case?

No, I am afraid  we do not sell Antique clock movements. See our Horological Links Page for where you can obtain some modern mechanical movements.  The cost of making a complete 2 train Fusee bracket clock movement of quality together with a pendulum is expensive.

No we do not attend clock fairs.
