The swith on my table lamp was broken. It kept turning without ever catching to turn the lamp on. I called the Lamp Doctor and was told that I could bring it in and wait while it was repaired. The cost would be $35. I brought the lamp in the same day I called and it was fixed within minutes. It was a small job, but not one I would have been able to do. It's nice to know these local businesses exist for non do-it-yourself-types, like me. The electrician did a great, quick job and the owner was very friendly. Well worth the price.

Very knowledgeable and friendly. They have an assortment of beautiful and unique lamps. The owner helped us choose the perfect shade to fit the lamp that caught our eye. I'll definitely head back here for our next lamp purchase.
