Took our clock which hasn't worked for 15 years into them last week. Got it going within seconds - hasn't stopped ticking yet. Great service.

Only needed a few rods of easy cut silver steel, but Neil was really helpful. I will definitely use them again
My clock has been serviced and repaired at William Haycocks since my Grandads time. The tradition continues today. Neil's talent as a clock maker and precision engineer is highly rated . I need to be able to trust the person who would work on my clock so it is the only place for me.
First class service, it is nice to meet someone who is obviously passionate about his profession and extremely knowledgable about turret clocks. Very approachable and ready to accommodate the customer. If you need a repair on any Church clock , these are the people to go to.
Neil Haycock did a very sympathetic restoration and repair on a grandfather clock that I bought. I loved the clock, but it was prone to stop and chimed when it felt like it. He explained everything to me, showed me what was wrong and why it wasn't working and what would be done to repair it. He was happy to go the extra mile to repair original parts which would have been easier to replace. My clock now looks more original as it has matching period hands, works l beautifully and chimes reliably. Neil is a real craftsman, the latest generation of clockmakers from a family of skilled clockmakers. The workshop is as it would have been 100 years ago and it is a fascinating insight into a disappearing craft. If you have a proper clock which needs to be looked at by someone skilled and who won't just oil it with push-bike oil, whether it's an grandfather clock or a church clock, Neil Haycock is your man.
