Lindell Clock Repair

Lindell's Grandfather Clock Repair is a second-generation clock restoration business based on East 5th Street in uptown Charlotte, serving customers across Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, and the Philadelphia metro area along the I-95 corridor. Founded in 1992, the business is run personally by horologist Jerry Lindell, who performs every repair himself rather than handing work off to a larger shop floor. The company specializes specifically in grandfather clocks, along with other heirloom and collectible timepieces, offering full disassembly, cleaning, and reassembly to restore stopped or misbehaving movements, along with precision oiling of pivot points and mainsprings to extend a clock's running life and improve its accuracy. For antique or collectible clocks, Lindell emphasizes preserving the piece's authenticity while restoring proper function, rather than replacing original parts wherever possible. When a part genuinely isn't available anymore, Jerry fabricates it from scratch on-site using lathes and mills, a level of in-house machining capability that's unusual even among specialist clock repairers. Because grandfather clocks are difficult and risky to move, the business also offers professional packing and moving along the I-95 corridor, positioning it as a less expensive and safer alternative to repairing damage caused by an amateur move. Customers describe Jerry visiting their home to assess a clock in person, explaining what it needs before any work begins, and returning it set, regulated, and ready to keep time for years to come — accounts that consistently mention his knowledge and professionalism. For owners of a stopped or struggling grandfather clock anywhere along the East Coast corridor the business covers, Lindell's combination of over three decades of hands-on, single-technician expertise and on-site part fabrication is a distinctly specialized offering compared to a general repair shop.
