Repair Services

Repair work at Eastport Clock covers a wide range of mechanical issues. Movements are examined carefully to locate worn areas, tired pivots, problems with wheels, issues with balance and concerns with parts that may have aged over many years. The owner studies the original construction of the timepiece and works to preserve its character while restoring proper function. Many clocks have subtle concerns that appear only after patient testing and observation. These concerns are addressed through an approach that avoids guesswork and focuses on the true reason a clock will run for a short time and then stop. Clients can bring in clocks that have not run for many years, clocks that run too fast or too slow, or clocks that have issues related to chimes, strikes or general operation. Each repair is completed with the goal of returning the timepiece to a dependable state so it can continue to serve its place in the home.

Timepiece Cleaning and Overhaul

Eastport Clock offers cleaning and overhaul services that restore the condition of the movement. This service requires the mechanism to be taken apart completely. Each piece is placed in an ultrasonic cleaner to remove old oil, dirt and residue that can slow the movement. After cleaning the owner polishes components, repairs worn parts and addresses any areas that need attention. Once the parts are ready the movement is reassembled with care and tested for steady operation. Many clocks that appear to have mechanical trouble simply need cleaning and proper adjustment. Overhaul work often brings new life to clocks that have not been serviced in a long time. This service is important for preserving the life of the movement and ensuring that gears, pivots and bushings stay in good working order. Eastport Clock approaches cleaning and overhaul with patience and respect for the original parts so the clock leaves the shop performing as it should.

Clock Case Restoration

Case restoration is another service provided by Eastport Clock. Many timepieces have cases that show signs of age such as worn finishes, loose trim, cracked surfaces or faded areas. The owner has extensive experience with old materials from his years in historic restoration work which included repairing plaster walls made from horse hair, sand, oyster shell and early forms of wall board. This background provides an understanding of how to address aging surfaces while respecting the original character of the piece. Case restoration can include cleaning the finish, repairing damaged trim, stabilizing loose joints and giving renewed appearance to aged surfaces. The goal is not to make the piece look new but to restore the appearance while preserving the history. Clients appreciate knowing their clocks are treated with the same care given to older structures that require detailed attention and skill.

Custom Clock Design and Creative Projects

Eastport Clock offers original clock design for clients who want a distinctive timepiece for their home or company. These clocks are not produced from templates or common patterns. Each one is created in the shop and reflects the clients preferences and ideas. Some clients want a clock that fits a specific space while others want a design that carries a personal meaning. The owner brings both mechanical knowledge and a creative approach to these projects. This service allows clients to enjoy a piece that cannot be found elsewhere and becomes a central part of the room. The custom design service is welcome for those who want a timepiece that reflects their own style and appreciation for traditional craft.
