A Statement from our Director


I am proud to say that a service by Microscope Wizards Ltd is second to none. Microscopes are our passion.  We go beyond a basic clean of the lenses, to a full preventative maintenance service and diagnostic check. We strive to return each microscope that we service, to as close to its original condition as we can achieve. If you book a service from Microscope Wizards Ltd, you will notice the difference. Keep your microscope in full working order and get the most out of it. As I always say:
