If you're looking for a truly skilled clockmaker, Scott at Clockwise is the person to trust…read more I brought Scott two family heirloom grandfather clocks that meant the world to me. One belonged to my mother and had been repaired multiple times elsewhere but still wasn't running properly. Scott carefully diagnosed the problem, corrected it, and brought it back to life. My grandmother's clock was an even greater challenge. It had been restored over the years with replacement parts, missing components, and numerous obstacles to getting everything working together correctly. Scott never looked for the easy way out. He patiently worked through every issue, custom-lengthened the metal pendulum, evaluated the weight distribution, and fine-tuned the clock until it kept perfect time. What sets Scott apart is not only his knowledge but also his integrity. He takes the time to explain what he's doing, answers questions without making you feel rushed, and genuinely wants your clock to continue running long after it leaves his shop. His attention to detail and commitment to doing the job right are evident in everything he does. Today, both of my family's treasured clocks are running beautifully. Seeing my grandmother's clock keeping perfect time again is something I honestly wasn't sure I'd ever experience, and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, Scott, for your patience, your craftsmanship, and for treating these family heirlooms with the care and respect they deserved. I recommend Clockwise without hesitation.

They quoted a price to come out and service it. Quote was reasonable so we set an appointment. They took the main interior works with them to clean, oil, and fine tune. After 4 weeks they emailed and set up an appointment to reinstall it. After installing the works it failed to chime after they left. They came back in a timely manner and made a minor adjustment. Since then it runs perfectly and is keeping time to the minute. The service performed was a great value to us. Having our clock run was very important to us. Glad we found them. The best way to contact them is by email. Good people.

We have a family cuckoo clock that hangs on the wall which we had bought on a trip to Europe over…read more50 years ago. It is a European clock with the original Dutch movements. A few years ago, it started to develop problems, running erratically and with the 2 drop weights which power the clock occasionally descending unequally. The time could be off by large amounts, even a few hours. In Dec. 2020, Clocktiques sent a technician, Jason, to our house. We told Jason the history, including the age, of the clock. He claimed that the problem was principally due to the fact that the 2 drop weights were not identical and he made an adjustment. About 6 months later, the same performance problems returned. I left my clock at Clocktiques for approximately 2 months and was charged a few hundred dollars for the repairs (I note that the charge for Jason's previous work was not reimbursed). For a few months the clock functioned well, but over the next couple of years, the issues not only returned but became worse: the clock would stop completely every few months, or so. I called Rick, the owner. I then dropped off my clock for several weeks at Clocktiques. They checked the clock and told me the issues were resolved. However, the problems returned. I decided to look for a different repair shop. In Sept. 2024, a shop in Raleigh told me that my clock needed a major overhaul. They opened up all of the internal workings, including repairing/replacing some of the bushings. The technician said that the serious problems had probably been present for at least a few years, and possibly much longer. After about 2 months in the shop and charges of a few hundred dollars, my clock is now running fine (and is under lengthy warranty coverage). I called Clocktiques demanding an explanation, but Rick was not able to provide one. I am deeply disappointed with the service I received at Clocktiques. While the shop carries an attractive and catchy name, my experience suggests otherwise. This is reminiscent of your taking your car to the mechanic when you hear a loud noise from the engine. The noise goes away for a while after you have paid a large "repair" bill but, then, months later, the car stops running as you find out you what you had actually needed was an engine overhaul in the first place.
