David Keeler ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

My Seth Thomas clock is a family heirloom – it was given to my grandfather in the 1950’s as a recognition for his community service. It fell from my fireplace mantel and was damaged. I was fortunate to find Times Ticking on the Internet. They did a wonderful job repairing and restoring my clock which now sits proudly on my mantel again. I could not be more pleased with the quality of work and the helpfulness offered at every point in the process. This is truly a professional organization which I highly recommend to anyone needing their services.

Peter Wilson ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Trusted a very sentimental clock to Times Ticking for refurbishment. Spoke on the phone and immediately felt that they were the right company. They explained the process to us and the turn around time. We received our clock back in the agreed time frame and were amazed at the quality of repair not only to the clock casing but the clock works as if new. The clock belonged to my father in law who passed recently, we placed the clock on the mantle and my 92 year old mother in law heard the chimes and it brought tears to her eyes and a smile to her face. THANK YOU for that gift. 10 out of 10

Rebecca Hill ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Wonderful attention to detail, careful diligence, and reasonably priced. My clock is working "like new" and I am so pleased.

Susan Runk ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

My parents own a schoolhouse circa 1870’s that I had cleaned for their 60th anniversary. The job was done on time at the exact price quoted, I would trust no one else with my clocks. The staff was very friendly and communicated with me when the job was complete. Thanks for the great work!! I’ll be back for sure.

Peter Vroom ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I was initially hesitant to send off a clock to another state without personally visiting a physical store. However, the staff at Times Ticking immediately contacted me once the clock was received and provided a quote and estimated timeline to fix. I received the fixed clock back through the mail much earlier than anticipated and in wonderful working condition! Despite being over 100 years old, the clock mechanism looks almost brand new after cleaning and repair. Thank you!

Becky G. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I am so happy with how my Seth Thomas clock turned out! Thanks to Times Ticking I learned that I inherited a priceless 200+ year-old wall clock (with wood gears), and also thanks to Times Ticking I am able to use it to keep time in my office and enjoy hearing the warm “tick tock” while I work. Effective communication, exemplary care with my antique, and reasonable pricing.

Casey Howard⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Our old Seth Thomas clock was destined to be passed down to another generation (4th) not working. Thanks to TT for giving it life and a future. They had to totally dismantle it, redo bushings and replace some parts. What a job well done, and a lot of work! Great communicators as well as doing follow up to make sure that all is well. Thank you all at Times Ticking.

CHIMING CLOCK REPAIRS BY TIMES TICKING

Expert Care for Every Clock Style & Collection

Ave Maria Chiming Clock Repair >

The Ave Maria chime was inspired by the famous Catholic prayer and its musical settings, most often Franz Schubert’s 1825 composition, which clockmakers adapted into a melodic sequence for mantel and wall clocks, giving timepieces both a devotional and lyrical character that set them apart from the more secular Westminster and Whittington chimes.

We know that your chiming clock is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert clockmakers strive to make sure your clock can be enjoyed for many years to come.

Bim-Bam Chiming Clock Repair >

The Bim-Bam chime was inspired by the simplicity of striking tower bells, using a straightforward two-note pattern (often on alternating rods or gongs) to mark the quarters and hours, and it became popular in 19th- and 20th-century European mantel and wall clocks for its clarity, charm, and ease of mechanism compared to more complex melodies.

St. Michael’s Chiming Clock Repair >

The St. Michael’s chime was inspired by the bells of St. Michael’s Church in Charleston, South Carolina, where the melody was installed in the church tower clock in the 1760s; it was later adapted for use in domestic chiming clocks, giving owners a distinctive alternative to the more common Westminster sequence.

Westminster Chiming Clock Repair >

The Westminster chime was inspired by a set of four notes from Handel’s Messiah (“I Know That My Redeemer Liveth”) and was arranged in the late 18th century for the clock at St. Mary’s Church, Cambridge; it later gained worldwide fame when installed in London’s Palace of Westminster in 1859, which is why it became known as the Westminster chime.

Whittington Chiming Clock Repair >

The Whittington chime was inspired by the bells of the Church of St. Mary le Bow in London, and its name is linked to the legend of Dick Whittington, a poor boy who became Lord Mayor of London after hearing the church bells calling him back to the city; the melody was later adapted into clock chimes as an alternative to Westminster, offering a richer and more varied sequence.

HISTORY OF CHIMING CLOCKS

The Legacy of Chiming Clocks: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation

Chiming clocks trace their origins to medieval Europe, where church tower clocks of the 14th century were equipped with striking mechanisms to sound the hours on bells, both to mark time for communities and to signal religious observances. By the 17th century, domestic longcase and bracket clocks adopted musical chimes, evolving from simple hour strikes to elaborate quarter-hour melodies like the Westminster chime, first used at St. Mary’s Church, Cambridge, in the late 1700s. As clockmaking advanced through the 18th and 19th centuries, makers in England, Germany, France, and later the United States refined chiming mechanisms, incorporating multiple melodies, intricate hammers, and gongs.

These innovations not only added utility but also artistry, transforming clocks into symbols of craftsmanship and cultural prestige that remain cherished in both antique and modern horology.
