Restoration Pinball can come to you.  We specialize in all pinball machines from the 1950s to the present.  This includes coin-operated games made by Gottlieb, Premier, Williams, Bally, Data East, Jersey Jack, Midway, Sega, Stern, and Chicago Coin (CCM).  We charge a  $240* trip charge for pinball repair, which includes the first hour of labor.  Parts are billed separately. Additional labor is $95/hr.  Our goal is to repair your pinball within 2 hours on the first trip if possible, but parts may need to be ordered and a return trip required.  That's why it's important to tell us in advance everything you see that is wrong. We guarantee our work for 30 days and will digitally level your pinball free of charge.  Just like antique cars, pinball machines need lots of love and attention.  You may have issues right now that affect your gameplay and others that could be damaging your machine. Call us for a one-hour diagnostic visit to see what your situation is. 

​

We also will buy your machine working or not for cash.  

​

* Destinations over 25 miles occur extra charges.

If your machine has been neglected over the years, you may need to consider "shopping out the machine."  Our pinball shop-out service includes complete disassembly of the top playfield. We clean and wax the entire playfield surface, including plastics and ramps. All rubber rings and rubber wearable parts are replaced with new black or white pieces... All posts are either cleaned or replaced. We check, adjust, and/or repair all switches to make the gameplay as it should. All burned lightbulbs are replaced.  Flipper assemblies are rebuilt or repaired to ensure full flipper strength. All other mechanisms will be checked and repaired for 100% functionality.  We also install new pinballs in each machine and may repair or replace any non-functioning leg levelers to ensure smooth and easy operation. Fuses are checked, correct fuse values are installed & cabinet is vacuumed.  Our goal is for your machine to work  100%, with no errors logged at start-up.  This entire process will increase the value and life of the pinball machine, returning it to the way it was designed to play! 

Shop Out service is $1400 for Solid State & $1600 for Electro Mechanicals* (plus parts) and comes with a 30-day warranty.  
 

LED Lighting

How about replacing your incandescent bulbs with modern LED bulbs?  (see our mods page for reasons you should consider this)  We can go through your pinball machine and update every light with LEDs. During the process, we also clean the backsides of all your playfield insert lenses and repair or replace any sockets that are damaged. You will be amazed at the life LEDs bring to your playfield. 

LED Light install is $550 which includes the bulbs.  If you choose to do this in conjunction with the shop-out you will get $50 off. 

All work takes place at our pinball repair shop. We charge a flat fee of $150 each way to transport your machine**  This includes digitally leveling your machine and setting the correct slope on delivery.

A pinball modification or 'mod' is any additional feature or change made to a pinball machine that didn't come as standard on an original production pinball machine. Mods can be anything from additional lighting, playfield features, toppers or anything else that can change how a pinball machine looks or otherwise operates. We love mods so much we wanted to share with you our list of the 10 most important mods to consider for your pinball machine in priority order.
