Took a lamp in for repair. The service was exceptional. The owner repaired it while I waited and was finished in about fifteen (15) minutes. Now working perfectly. Their inventory of lamps, shades and finials is huge and so varied it would be hard not to find something in your taste. Other attractive decorative accessories are also available. When I need another lamp I will certainly return. in my short visit I saw about five lamps that liked, unfortunately no place for them.

Jeff at Lampshades Unlimited is amazingly knowledgeable and helpful! He helped me get all the pieces I needed to restore three 1910s chandeliers back to their former glory. He was patient with me as he answered all my questions and walked me through the process. Even when I called the store later to ask more questions, he guided me to the solutions I needed to continue the project. This place also had all the unusual antique pieces and parts that I needed, which was great! I definitely recommend this place and I am super appreciative to Jeff for walking me through my projects.

Here is my experience at lampshades unlimited: fantastic place, friendly, affordable and, above all Jeff is so great the manner which he helps, I went there several time to get help for repairing a nautical lamp, his help was great and the result was very professional.

If you're looking for unique, one of a kind lampshades, finials or even lamps, this is the store for you! My father and I went in to look for a shade and finial and it was like we were in a candy store. We ended up buying 3 lamps, several shades and more. The lady who helped us was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and personable. We will definitely be back. I highly recommend you try this store!!!

This place is so awesome!! I took them this beaten up lampshade that was so sentimental. They restored it perfectly and in a reasonable time frame. I am so grateful!

Needed a floor lamp turning knob. Crazy they're so hard to find. The gentleman who helped me was knowledgeable and was even able to provide me with options. Plus the inventory in the store is phenomenal. It is sensory overload in the most beautiful way. I'm not into lamps but this was something else!

Always top-notch! Great place and people, Abby the dog is very friendly as well. If it can be fixed then they can fix it.

One of the best experiences with any businesses I have had in San Diego in 38 years. Jeff Newman is a master lamp fixer. He is "into" his work and it shows by the reviews. The price was reasonable. So low, in hindsight, I should have tipped him. A fun shop. Interesting lamps and lighting ideas. There a very few businesses like this anymore. The American Way. Small business owner with integrity, experience, and reasonable prices.

We took our lamp in that turned on and off sporadically. Jeff fixed it in 15 minutes and for another $1.50 traded the plastic on/off switch for a brass one. Also, they are smart and find beautiful broken lamps, fix them, and sell them in the shop. Highly recommend!

I have been coming here since I was a kid accompanying my parents for whatever lighting project they were working on. I bought my first finial here as well in my mid 20s and have continued to have an appreciation for finials ever since. Their selection is nice with out being overwhelming. Now in my 40s I finally got around to taking a sentimental lamp in for what I thought was just going to be a cord and bulb switch out. Instead I ended up with an entirely restored lamp! The transformation was amazing! I believe her name is Amber and she is an awesome gal to have contact with. I dropped the lamp off on a late Saturday afternoon (be nice and don't do this - just kidding) and she was as helpful and patient as if I was her first customer of the day. I forgot to bring the shade I intended to use but upon pickup, a week later, also right before closing, she made just a few more adjustments after leaving excellent notes for the actual technician who did the work. The price was reasonable and it is also fun to look around at the beautiful various vintage lamps on display/for sale. Oh yeah, great place for a shade if needed although this place goes beyond just selling lampshades.

There aren't a lot of lamp repair places left in San Diego but this place was a great find. Came to the shop to repair some lamps, and buy some lampshades for my great aunt. The staff was very friendly, and knowledgeable. The repair were small so they didn't charge us much and the owner took the time to pick the perfect lamp shade replacements for my great aunt. Great experience.

After having a terrible experience with a highly recommended lamp repair shop in Hillcrest, I took my lamp and tip-TAPPed out the door! My experience at LU was the polar opposite. The gal that greeted me with her adorable little baby girl was friendly and accommodating. She summoned Jeff who had a look at my lamp. He said the job would be tricky but he was confident he could deliver. Well, not only did he deliver but I got a call the very next day saying my lamp was ready to pick up. Not only that but the final bill was way less than I was expecting. If you're looking to get a light fixture repaired by someone who is honest, accurate, fast and fair, look no further!
