01 — Lamp & fixture repair
The lamp you love, working again.
Rewiring, sockets, switches, LED conversions, chandeliers and vintage pieces — repaired in our Belmont workshop, with a written estimate before any work begins.
Nothing is repaired until you approve a written estimate. Parts and labor are listed separately. If we can't fix it well, we'll say so.
What we repair
Most things with a cord, a socket or a chain.
- 01Table and floor lamps — rewiring, sockets, switches, cords and plugs
- 02Chandeliers and pendants — sockets, arms, chain and canopy work
- 03Sconces and ceiling fixtures brought in from the wall or ceiling
- 04LED conversions and dimmer compatibility
- 05Vintage and antique pieces, with care for original parts
- 06Shades, harps, finials and the small parts that get lost
What we don't
And what we don't take on.
- In-home or in-ceiling electrical work — a licensed electrician takes it down; we repair it on the bench
- Pieces that can't be made safe to use — we'll tell you plainly
We don't certify repairs for code compliance or insurance purposes. Every repair is tested before it goes home.
How pricing works
An estimate first. Always in writing.
Once your piece is on the bench we assess it, write up parts and labor, and send the estimate to you. You approve it — or decline it — before any work is done.
- 01
Assessment
What's wrong and whether it's worth doing.
- 02
Written estimate
Parts and labor, itemised, before any work.
- 03
Approval and deposit
Approve by phone, email or in person; we confirm in writing. 20% deposit, credited to the total; high-cost parts may need more, told first.
- 04
Tested and ready
We call or email you when it's done. The balance is due when you collect it.
Repair terms
Deposit, payment and collection.
- The assessment and written estimate are free.
- No repair work starts until you approve the written estimate.
- You can approve it by phone, email or in person, and we confirm your approval in writing.
- When you approve it, we ask for a deposit of 20% of the approved estimate. High-cost or special-order parts can need a larger deposit; if so, we tell you before you approve.
- The deposit counts toward the total. It is not an extra fee.
- The balance is due when you collect your piece, before it goes home.
- If you cancel after approving, we refund the deposit less only the charges we told you about before you approved: authorized work already done and approved nonreturnable parts already ordered. We give you an itemized explanation.
- Please collect your piece within 30 days of our telling you it is ready. If you need longer, ask and we will arrange it. We don't automatically charge storage, and we don't automatically sell or dispose of a piece that hasn't been collected.
Guarantee
One year on our work.
Our repairs carry a one-year limited guarantee, starting the day you collect. It covers our workmanship and the replacement parts we supply and fit: if a covered fault appears, we put it right without charging for the parts or labor needed.
It doesn't cover original parts we didn't work on, ordinary bulb wear, or damage from accidents, misuse or later alterations. Any limits for vintage or customer-supplied parts are explained before you approve the estimate; a piece's age alone doesn't exclude it.
Shipping, collection and on-site service aren't automatically included. The guarantee doesn't affect your rights under the law.
