The guy is knowledgeable about lamps, but a zero in the customer bed side manner department. Textbook lessons in complacency, with a side of "lack of enthusiasm." read more

The owner of this business is extremely knowledgeable. He handled two of my antique lamps perfectly. He took the time to show me what had been done to make the internal wiring work like new and assure me that it was safe. read more

I brought a pair of table lamps that my Mom had in her living room for as long as I can remember. The base lights up as well as the top and I always loved them. However they have to be over 50 years old and the harps were wobbly. David replaced the sockets and hardware so the harps fit correctly. He replaced the bulbs in the bases. He also changed the wiring and plug with a fire color that better matched the lamps. The lamps look great and he turned them around in a day. David is a real expert! read more

I had a very nice lamp with a bad switch. I took it to the Lamp Doctor and it was fixed in no time at a very fair price. In this throwaway world it is great to still have an old time service like this available. Highly recommend. read more

I brought a lamp in that had a problem with the wiring. David fixed it while I waited. The price is determined by what work needs to be done, and the price was fair and very reasonable. I am very happy to have my Tiffany style lamp working again, thank you. I am extremely happy with the service and would definitely recommend this place. Also, it was very easy to find parking on the street close to the shop. read more

Wow, I am so grateful for this place. My husband broke the switch one of my favorite lamps during lockdown 2020. It was only a cheap Target lamp from about 15 years ago, but it was the first thing I bought for myself when I moved away from home, and it holds sentimental value. My husband saw on the website that the owner understands how a lamp can be special in that way and treats each customer's belongings with that in mind. David fixed it on the spot, and it's now as good as new! read more

My crystal chandelier broken one arm. David searched one arm in his supplies. Excellent service - reasonable price. David is polite.

My mother had a lamp from the 1930's & David Davis did a fantastic job reconditioning it so it looks as good as new. Painstaking he wired with the latest, safest products & more importantly he loves his job & is proud of his work. There are few people that have the patience to do this kind of work, so if you want a person with 56 years of experience that you can trust with your fragile lamps, David is the guy! read more

Disappointing experience. We read all these other reviews and we are very confused. The man we dealt with(older man) was very rude and not helpful at all. My brother and I took my mother to the lamp doctor to have her old vintage hurricane lamp fixed, which from what we understand shouldn't be too complex, and before my mom even got the lamp out of the box he said he couldn't help her. Abruptly cut my mother off and kept repeating he couldn't help. It was like we were bothering him and he didn't want to be bothered. Kept looking down and repeating that he couldn't help and it's not what he does. Didn't even let my mom explain what needed to be done. We are still shocked and confused about his actions. I felt very bad for my mom. The lamp was given to her from her father in the 70's and this "doctor" wanted nothing to do with it. The only words he spoke were "no I can't help with that, I don't do that. I can't help you, I can't help you." Beyond unpleasant and very unfortunate. read more

You walk into this shop and get transported back to an earlier time, when people lived in small towns and only went to the shops their main street. This could have been one of the stores around the corner from Mr. Rodgers in Mr. Rodgers Neighborhood. Good, fast service by a pleasant man who takes pride in his work. I took a floor lamp that had been collecting dust for years there and he fixed it for $35 - I'm sure smaller lamps would be less. At any rate, I'm glad I had my old lamp fixed instead of buying a new one. If any other my other lamps break, I'll be sure to return. read more

Have had several lamps repaired, rewired and added new shades. Lamps that belonged to my sister who passed years ago but every time I look at these beautiful lamps, she is right there smiling. I can not believe anyone else would have done a better job. As well and being trustworthy and very professional, he makes sure any lamp that leaves his shop is not only beautiful but safe to use on an everyday basis. Wonderful addition to the borough of Raritan. read more
