Teddy Bear Hospital FAQs

   
1. What materials do you use?
 

I use whatever the original fabric of the bear would have been.  This is usually mohair for the older bears, felt for the pads or linen, as near as possible to the original for the correct colour.

We use glass eyes or Victorian boot buttons (depending on what the original would have been).  The eyes are carefully matched so that they are the correct colour and size for the bear.
 

2. How can I get a quote?
  Send me your email picture or bring your bear into the shop and I will give you a free quote.  Our prices are reasonable.
 
3. Do I have to come into the shop or can I send the bear for repair?
 

You can bring your bear into the shop (please phone first to make sure I am there) or you can send him by post, but please phone first to make sure I am willing to undertake the work.

To owners that live a long way away:

Don't let this put you off, bears like a little outing, especially if they have not been out of the house for a few years, they really love going to the seaside for a day!
 

4. How long will it take?
  It depends on how much work I currently have, but it will never be rushed, I take great care in my repairs, it could be 2 weeks or more, depending on my workload.  I will phone you when the bear is ready for collection.  All bears are fully insured.
 
5. Is there a guarantee?
 

I like all my customers to be satisfied, so if you are not happy with any of my repairs, please contact me and I will endeavour to rectify the problem.

Customer satisfaction and personal recommendation are my priorities (and happy bears).  We have many happy customers who refer us to others and return year after year.

   
Note:   If your bear needs repair, and you get this done, it is a fact that he or she will last another generation, thereby providing pleasure to your family and prolonging his life.  It will also increase his value.
