A 30 HOUR GRANDFATHER CLOCK MOVEMENT BY SAM LOMAX OF BLACKBURN LANCASHIRE

This is typical of the type of work we carry out in our workshop.

On the left is a 30 hour movement by Sam Lomax of Blackburn.

This grandfather clock movement was made around 1760.

Stripped down ready for a complete overhaul.

On the right is the superb brass dial of the Lomax clock, pictured here after restoration and cleaning

Clocks made in the North of England are often as good as anything made in London, and can be purchased at lower prices -

CLOCK REPAIRS

  With over 40 years experience in clock repairs, engineering, lathe work, milling, welding  etc, We can carry out repairs and new builds of the sort that very few people attempt any more. Clockmakers are now very rare, (at least the ones of the "old school" who can carry out nearly any job are.)

In addition to clocks repair we make our own brass dials and engrave them, make hand-cut steel and brass clock hands, and in general keep busy looking after our many satisfied customers, both in the antiques trade, and private individuals most of whom heard about us from friends.

Whatever you are looking for in the grandfather clock repair field, (or tallcase clock as our American friends call them ) we can probably help, from a brand new 8 day movement to a rebuilt antique movement, or just a new wheel or pinion or escapement for your much loved old Family Heirloom, or maybe get it running reliably again after many years standing silent in the corner - - - - email or phone for a quote today.

We also carry out Mantel Clock repair work, antique clock repairs and general clock restoration work in our workshop near Nelson Lancashire. Other types of clock we repair include: Cuckoo Clocks, most types of Wall Clocks, Vienna Clocks, Chiming Clocks, Musical Clocks and Grandmother Clocks.

Grandfather clocks have been my passion for over 40 years now, I repair clocks as if I owned them myself, to repair clock movements is a privilege for me, "clock repair" is both a joy and a job, I am lucky to be able to combine the two.
