Since 1986, The Lamp Repair Shop has been offering careful
repairs and restorations of  antique lighting in our studio workshop
in South Portland, Maine. Professional tradespeople and
homeowners alike have used our services for years because they
have recognised the quality and care we put into every repair
entrusted to us. From simple rewiring of lamps to complicated
restorations of a 19th century chandelier, The Lamp Repair Shop
strives to continue the old fashion traditions of quality
craftsmanship and honesty.
Whenever we take on a lamp repair, our mission is to make sure
you cannot tell the lamp has been in a repair shop (other than the
fact that it works beautifully, of course!). Our repairs are usually
invisible, and we can feather in a lamp's patina to further hide our
work. Whether it's brazing, soldering, or epoxying,
we will do our best to camouflage the repair.







The above before and after photos are a good example. The lamp
was repaired by another shop (left photo) and the customer
actually had to pay for this repair! Our repair (on the right) was
much more sensitive to the sentimentality of the lamp. Another
example of a botched repair can be found here.

When you visit The Lamp Repair Shop, one of the first things
you will notice is the outstanding selection of custom made,   
one-of-a-kind lights built right
here in our studio. It is the ultimate
in recycling as we take discarded
and salvaged items and re-purpose
them into functional art. Plus, you
will find an ever changing inventory
of antique lighting, furniture, and
new creations by area craftsman.

















Feel free to visit our showroom
at 105 Ocean Street in South
Portland, Maine anytime Tuesday
through Friday from 9 to 5:15.
