We have a very old table top Pendulum Clock brought over from Europe in the 40s. Has a lot of sentimental value as well as being artistically designed.Ken knew immediately where the clock was made and after taking apart the clock in less than 10 minutes as I observed ,he told me exactly what the problem was. Repaired it in a week and his price was fair and well worth it. Also has a number of interesting Clocks for sale. He is my guy!
We have both had a click repaired by Ken and purchased a grandfather clock from him. The repair was done quickly and affordable with a high level of quality. I also could not be happier with the clock we purchased. Prior to delivery Ken completely disassembled and cleaned the clock, he then delivered it to our home and set it up. Over one year following purchase the clock continues to amaze me, at the end of the wind (7-8 days) the clock is spot on. I have yet to make any adjustments beyond the initial setup. Incredibly high level of work!
Very professional! I was impressed with Ken’s thoroughness and knowledge of the specific features of our clock. When picking up the clock, Ken offered suggestions on care and reviewed the proper operation of the clock.We’ve previously had our clocks serviced at another, well known local clock shop, but usually had to return a few days later to fix this or that which left me with an uneasy feeling. So, when our clock needed help once again, I decided to look a little further. I am so glad that I did! So much so, in fact, that I plan to have our other clocks serviced here soon!A great experience!
Ken came out to my house to service my dads grandfather clock. He meticulously took apart, cleaned, oiled and reassembled the entire clock and made sure it was all in working order. He reinstalled the weights and set everything and then took the time to explain how all of the features of the clock work and answer all of my questions. He was quick, thorough, professional and friendly. He made sure to note what was done and leave me with his contact info for future service needs as well. I would not hesitate to recommend Shores Clock Shop and Ken for any clock needs.
My husband and I hadnt operated our Herman Miller grandfather clock for several years and stopped by the Shores Clock Shop unannounced. We explained to Ken that we wanted to get it operational again. Ken was able to pencil us in for a next-day appointment.Ken took really good time and care to check, oil, and repair all aspects of our grandfather clock. As he work on our clock, he explained the history of the clock and then gave us a tutorial on how to properly operate the clock. Ken also left his contact information should we have any questions about continual maintenance of our beloved grandfather clock.We highly recommend Shores Clock Stop for questions or repairs of mechanical and grandfather clocks. Thank you Ken!
Great home service! Ken is very knowledgeable and professional. My Grandmother clock was repaired, oiled and set at my home. The moon phase gear was misaligned, the hours wouldnt chime and a piece of the pendulum arm was broken. Ken replaced the broken arm piece, aligned the moon phase gears, realigned the hammers and hands, oiled and greased all gears and now its like new. I highly recommend this shop and cant say enough about Ken. I recently moved here from California and will always request Ken in the future. He did far more than whats above including removing two brackets that werent used by the mechanism that was installed 10 years ago and removed four arms on the mechanism that arent used for mounting it in my Trend Clock. All six items were just dangling inside with no function.
Posting a review here on behalf of my parents, who had their grandfather clock repaired by Mr. Ken.We were extremely pleased with the service and professionalism. Every course of the repair was patiently and passionately explained to our satisfaction. The end result is that our grandfather clock is now running beautifully and sounding more melodiously than when it was new. Kudo to Mr. Ken!-Mr. William
We had an antique wall clock that survived the Sanford Dam flood. It had been submersed in water for 24 hrs or so. We took it to another clock shop where they were unable to repair it. We found Shore Clock Shop and Ken, the owner, was able to repair it. It still doesn’t chime on the hour, but Ken searched for and is continuing to search for the part needed. We are so thankful for the work Ken did and would highly recommend Shores Clock Shop.
Walked in with a Howard Miller Regulator wall clock that I acquired from my parents. It needed some TLC and no longer chimed. Ken was extremely nice & professional. He quickly diagnosed the problems and was able to repair using spare parts, saving me a few bucks. He cleaned, oiled, and tested in just a few days. Had it in perfect working order for a very reasonably price and warranted his work! Ken also gave us a very thorough run down on setup and operation which was extremely helpful. He has some great looking pieces for sale in the store too. I would highly recommend Shores Clock Shop to anyone needing clock sevices and I will most definitely be returning in the future.
Excellent service. A Grand father clock that was passed on to me from family. One it hadnt ran in years and Two I didnt know what I was doing and accidentally bent the part that moves pendulum when trying to reattach it. Ken was able to bend it back into place without selling me a new part. Also took the parts out and oiled it everything. Sure enough its running well now and keeps good time. He also was able to explain everything this clock does to me and how to maintain this clock for years.
Our grandfather clock was not chiming and had not been serviced in probably 10 years. Ken came in and took the clock apart cleaned and oiled the clock and within 45 minutes had the clock running and chiming like it was brand new. His work was swift, precise and neat. Not only that, his price for this home visit was fair. I would recommend his services to anyone with confidence he will do a great job.
We have an old brass mantel pendulum clock whose chime had turned to a clunk, and which kept time only in an idiosyncratic way.Ken not only got it running, but the chime sounds better than I remember its ever sounding. Further, he was very careful not to polish away the age of the case - its a beautiful _old_ clock; it still looks it, and it works a treat. Ken is great.
Delivered as promised. Straightforward and honest. Rebuilt a 25 year old Howard Miller floor clock movement/mechanism that had not been serviced and maintained as it should have been over the life of the clock and all the years we owned it. It now runs flawlessly again.Ken is fair, honest, and knowledgeable . He knows his stuff when it comes to taking care of these delicate and intricate pieces of machinery. In this day and age service and repair of these kinds of mechanical clocks is somewhat of a dying art. You can rest assured this man will do a fine job for you. I would not hesitate to recommend him and his services to anyone in need.
My 80 year old neighbor needed help to get two very special clocks repaired. Upon visiting a store who sells Howard Miller clocks, we found they do not repair. They recommended Shores Clock Shop. We brought the clock to Ken and he was able to quote a reasonable price to repair the Howard Miller wall clock. We showed him the broken mechanism for the second clock. He told us to bring in that clock and he would replace it while we waited to avoid a third half hour trip. Quality, friendly, reasonable, warranted,expert service! My neighbor and I highly recommend!
I have a large wall clock that stopped working, I went to the Clock Shop, talked to Ken, the owner and made an appointment for him to come to my home and give me a quote for repairs. Ken is very professional and really knows about clocks. He had to take the internal parts of the clock to his shop to do the repairs and what a beautiful job he did. Im so impressed with his expertise and craftsmanship. He provided information about the clock and how it runs. I couldnt be happier with the end result and highly recommend The Clock Shop. My clock has never looked so good or ran so well .
Our beautiful grandfather clock stopped working. We called Shores Clock Shop. Ken was at our house in no time. He was very punctual and professional. He diagnosed the problem. Our clock needed a thorough cleaning and lubricating - something we havent done in 30 years. It needed a couple of bushings too. We are having a family gathering and wanted to show the grandkids our grandfather clock. Ken worked over time to get the clock works back to us and installed in no time. Thanks so much for the extra effort. We hope the grandkids like the clock too!
Shores Clock Shop does outstanding repair work! I have Chelsea Ship Clock that is over 45 years old and was not working. Ken took a look at it and told me would have running like new. He is a man of his word. The clock is running great. I would recommend Shore Clock Shop for any type of clock service. Keep up the great work!Joe L.
Several weeks ago Ken repaired my 100 plus years old clock. Ken was very professional and explained what needed to be done but applied no pressure and let me make the decision to go forward with the repair. Im very pleased with the result. Ken is very knowledgeable and courteous and I recommend Shores Clock Shop.
Well, its been 10 days since Ken of Shores Clock Shoppe repaired and cleaned my 120 year old grandmother clock. It runs beautifully now. Ken carefully and professionally cleaned years of built up grim and oil from the workings and searched for and replaced old worn out parts. He knows his stuff. I have more clock for him to work on. Thanks Ken. Mark C.
Highly recommend if you need a clock repaired. He serviced our Grandfather clock that we bought in Germany when I was stationed there. I just took him a walk clock that belonged to my wifes grandmother. It was given to my wife after her grandmother passed a fee years ago and the clock had not worked in over 30 years. I took it in and he assured me that he could fix it and he fixed it. Clock is working and it chimes. The best Mothers Day surprise I have given my wife in a long time. Thank you Ken!!
Ken is fantastic! He came to our home to give our grandfather clock a tune up and he also completely repaired and restored our old cuckoo clock. He was extremely professional both times and we are very pleased with the price and quality of the work. I highly recommend!
I had Ken out to fix a grandfather clock that was handed down through my wifes family. The clock hadnt worked in years. Ken came right to the house and worked on it. After a few days it stopped working. I called Ken up and he was back out within 24 hours. In normal circumstances he would have taken the clock into the shop to repair it, but because he knew I wanted to surprise my wife the following day, he completely stripped the clockworks right there in my living room and made adjustments, all within an hour. The clock has worked perfectly ever since and...a happy wife is a happy life :-)Thanks Ken, Great Job!!
The owner did a great job explaining in detail the process of his repairs. He was very thorough when showing me how to set up the cuckoo clock at home. He was very prompt and courteous. Overall, I am very happy with the outcome and pleased to have done business there!
Ken called me as soon as he received the letter from the Company I ordered my clock from before it was delivered and explained to me that he would be the one to set it up for me. Once the clock was delivered, I called him and set the appointment up , he explained how the clock works in great detail. He also gave me good advice on maintenance of the clock and how to trouble shoot. He is highly recommended.
Took Ken a family mantle clock, early 1900s, in storage for years. He is an expert who did a wonderful job. The treasured clock is now running like new. He gave clear, specific instructions on the chimes and setting the clock. His fine work is much appreciated and highly recommended.
If I could give 6 stars I would. I took a treasured wall clock to get fixed. They fixed it and there was a slight issue with it when we put it back on the wall. I called and the owner told me to bring it back. Ken kept it for another week and monitored it daily and made slight adjustments. It now works better than ever. Took another neglected grandfather type wall clock to him and its now running like it was brand new. Exquisite customer service and attention to detail that is sorely lacking from most clock shops these days. I have an old cuckoo clock that will be visiting the Shores Clock Shoppe very soon.Nice work SCS!!!! Thanks Ken!
Excellent excellent. I have a 200-year old French clock that hasnt been running for maybe 40 years. Ken, with his infinite well of patience and extraordinary skill, got it running again. My father fixed clocks for a living. Id say Ken is in the same league with my father, which I never thought Id see.
Good service, friendly owner. He fixed an old school clock that hadn’t been working for years. We bought a beautiful grandfather clock from him which he delivered to my house and set up. The shop has plenty of unusual clocks to look at for purchase, and the owner is knowledgeable about fixing watches and clocks. It’s a great find!
What an amazing experience I had at the Shores Clock Shop! I love my clock and the service was fast, so reasonable plus the owner is truly a friendly and professional guy. He really understands the sentimental value of a family clock and took extra care to restore it.Highly endorse this shop!!
Ken, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable about his craft. He took the time to show us and explain the problem with our clock and the options for fixing it. He is meticulous in his work and very pleasant to deal with. We were very pleased and will use his services again. We highly recommend this business.
Keang Ung also known as Ken is a hard working man who really puts his heart into his work. If your clock can be fixed this is the place to go. He fixed our slot machine clock, took the time to explain the ins and outs of the clock, and was kind and respectful the whole time. His prices are great and he gets the job done in a very reasonable amount of time. Thanks again Ken we will bring you more repairs soon!
The owner was extremely kind, professional, and obviously very knowledgeable. The price was quite fair, and it included a generous 2 year warranty. Our clock was ready in a very timely manner, and the owner was very helpful in explaining how to properly maintain it when we picked it up. We will gladly go back for any clock-related issues in the future!
My antique “eight day” New Haven mantle clock was mechanically getting worse. I had it fixed a number of years ago, but those repairs failed. Every closck repair shop I have spoken with complained that New Haven’s were difficult to work on etc. Shores was forthright and told me that the clock needed to be rebuilt. The price was reasonable and the work was completed when I was told it would be! Highly recommend this shop!
We recieved our Howard Miller clock as a gift 20 yrs ago and it is very important to us. I tried another shop and they couldnt fix it. We googled a howard miller repair service and the Clock shop popped up and they had our clock for two days and it is good as new and we got a year warranty besides. Thank you so much I will tell everyone we know to come to your repair shop. Fair prices and friendly quick service.
What a wonderful shop!! I inherited my great grandfathers clock which had not worked in many years do to the fact that we couldn’t find anyone that could fix it. Problem solved here. Not only did he fix the clock but he also explained in detail how to care for it. I highly recommended this shop.
I took a family clock (100 years old) to Ken that has not worked in decades. Other shops did not want to touch it. Ken carefully explained to me what the problem was, what it would take to fix it and then did it masterfully. I have the clock at home now and it is working beautifully.
Seriously the best! If you need your clock serviced go here! We have a very sentimental 80 year old clock that stopped working and Keang made it look and work great. Great customer service, honest and fair as well. We will go here anytime we need a watch or clock looked at.
Took an old mantel clock in and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Ken the owner, was as knowlegeable as he was welcoming. Knew immediately where the clock was made and what it would cost to bring it back to life. No pressure for a sale just kindness. Great business owner. If u have a need Ken is your go to man!
Showed up to my house in Troy . When said would. Inspected and removed grandfather clock mechanismOiled greased and explained everything he was doing and how to maintain clock.Verry reasonable price .Other clock shop in Troy wanted 50 dollars just to make appt .and couldnt give me even a cleaning price . So I went with Shores Clock. Glad I did.
I didnt think there was anyone left that gave great service until I dealt with Shores Clock Shop. I brought my clock in one day and it was ready within 48 hours. The cost was very fair and the owner is very knowledgeable and personable. I urge everyone that needs a repair, get it done here.
After just making a recent purchase from the Shop, I was very satisfiedwith the Great Knowledge and Care that was taken to make this event anexperience that I will not soon forget. I totally recommend this Businessto all who would care to deal with a very reputable man who has a vast knowledge of what surrounds him within his Clock Shop!
I first took a 1960s German cuckoo clock for repair to working condition. Ken explained the option to either rebuild or replace the clock mechanism which failed due to age. I chose the replacement option since both the clock and the weighted chain system were worn out. He did a great job and provided a 2 year warranty on his work. I then took a chime clock to Ken for repair which was estimated to be 30-40 years old. Once again, Ken explained why the clock stopped working and offered a repair or replacement option. This time I chose the repair option. Once again Ken did a terrific job and the clock is working well. This repair also has a 2 year warranty on his work. Ken is very knowledgeable and takes great personal pride in his work. I trust Ken and highly recommend Shores Clock Shop. Thanks for the great work Ken.
Need a clock fixed take it here Ken the owner is friendly and very knowledgeable I have a grandmother and grandfather clock over 50 years old he has both running great neither has run in over10 years he completely rebuilt the grandfather clock and gives you 2 yrs warranty I will be bring him some of my other clocks to thanks Ken

2022-01-06We acquired a late 1800s long case grandfather clock and was looking to find someone local to go through it and get it working. Ken did a excellent job of replacing the warn out parts, ordered period correct hands and even made the calendar hand to match. In less time than most other places (under 5 weeks) he brought it to our house and even set it up to work properly. Everything is working as it should and keeps great time considering its over 130 years old. Thanks Ken for everything. If youre looking for a mechanical clock guy, this is the place to go. Highly recommend him.

2022-07-12Ken arrived on time and quickly alleviated my anxiety about hiring a professional who was new to me. He was here to see if the grandfather clock which I had inherited could be repaired. As he took the clock apart he explained what he was doing, and then clearly told me my three options for repair. Within an hour, Ken had the clock running, and those beautiful chimes working. I will definitely call the Shores Clock Shop for future maintenance.

2022-03-11I FINALLY went to this shop and boy was I impressed. I took my fathers Chelsea Ships clock which was not running and Ken took tender loving care and got the clock up and running. I’m so grateful. The clock is invaluable to me and our family. Thank you Ken. 👏

2022-05-05I have a clock the has a rocking penglym. It stopped rocking several years ago. I have taken it to 2 other clock shops and was told both times it couldnt be fixed. As a last effort I took it to him. He knew exactly what was wrong and didnt guarantee he could get it going. It is rocking gentle on my shelf right now. I couldnt be more pleased THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
