It may seem obvious to state, but not all Sofrim provide the same quality of work and give the Tefillin the same level of attention. Some do a quicker job just the bare minimum. while others hold the Tefillin to a higher standard to ensure its Kosher status. 
​
For this reason alone it is important to realize that when looking for a Sofer to check your Tefillin you must shop for their reputation of quality work not just their price.
​
A Sofer is being paid for their time.  Therefore in many instances one of the following is true 1) The cost of the checking is an indication of a lower level of inspection, as less time is allowed to be spent on your Tefillin. 2) Someone less or unqualified is doing the checking giving you the same results I.e a lower quality checking.

I have seen unfortunately in many a Sofer Stam employing young students who are only just beginning to learn Safrus to do the checking even before they have received their Kabolah. or seasoned Sofrim just eyeballing the Parshios in few short minutes to ensure its Kosher status. ​

At the Sofer Center we are highly qualified and spend time necessary for checking your Tefillin. We are not ok with your Parshios just barely "passing" examination. We give the necessary time for measuring and touching up the paint on your the Batim and Retzuos. 

When we check we are looking to make sure;


  • There are no missing, added or substituted letters or words.
  • There are no touching or improperly spaced letters or words.
  • That all the letters are written correctly,
  • All the necessary crowns are there.
  • Making minor repairs to faded and cracked letters or crowns



There are times when a Tefillin will require more work (for example if many of the letters or crowns are faded or cracked) and in that case we will advise if its worth putting the extra work into it or if you're better off replacing it. In the event we agree to make the repairs we will give you a quote for the cost of the additional repairs.

In most cases we can accommodate same day checking but depending on our availability it is best to call and schedule ahead of time.
