It really started out as a hobby. We both like antiques, and antique clocks especially, and when something didn't work he would figure it out. We started doing repairs for family and friends, and fixing antique clocks. There was so much work coming to us that we thought we'd try it as a business. It seemed like there was really a need for it. It's a lost art.
More Quotes from Tami McLaughlin:
Clock shops will send things to us, and we get customers who were told by other repair businesses that their clocks weren't worth fixing. That goes back to the clock's sentimental value. In that case, we give an estimate and then let the customer decide if they want to repair it or not.Tami McLaughlin

We really enjoy bringing old clocks back to life. These clocks often have a lot of sentimental value to their owners. Sometimes they got them from parents or relatives who are no longer living.
