A review for Alex's Antique Clocks Watch Repair & Restorations

Jul 29, 2011

DO NOT USE THIS MAN! I took the clock in to have the glass replaced and the mechanism serviced. He painted my clock without asking! This ruined the original patina on the clock -- which is dated the mid-1800's. When I got the clock back, he had put the clock back at an angle. The back of the clock is hexagonal so with the clock face at an angle, the door at the bottom was also now at an angle. I had to return it to have him correct it. There was nothing I could do about the paint job. With respect, I feel this gentleman is past his prime and should not be in business. His eyesight is so poor he had to wear jewelers magnification glasses out to write the receipt for me. So I fear he is not able to even see the small parts of a clock. DO NOT USE this gentleman!

A review for Rent-a-Son

Jun 27, 2011

The two 'sons' that came to move our furniture were punctual, polite and professional. They took care of my furniture in a way that I have not had happen before when moving. One piece of furniture that was especially rickety and I fully expected it to collapse... they took extreme care with it and it made the journey in one piece. I would NOT have blamed them if it had collapsed at all. Can moving be an enjoyable experience? With these guys helping it sure took the stress out of the actual moving day. Will definitely recommend them!
