My
clarinet I made at Newark College.Over 20
years ago!
Emergency
repairs can usually be
fitted in. Tuning work
and small jobs i.e,
re-corking joints,
soldering, adding thumb
rests, straightening bent
key work and dent removal
etc are priced as seen (I
can give an estimate over
the phone). Min repair
charge is £9.00. I
always use premium
quality pads and
materials.
Min
Service
The
aim is to keep the
instrument in good
working order for the
minimum cost. Only
replacing pads, cork,
felts and springs as
necessary. The instrument
is oiled but not cleaned.
Full
Service
Where
an instrument needs a
complete strip down and a
larger amount of work to
bring back to good
condition. But does not
need all pads replacing.
The instrument is cleaned
and oiled.
Repad
The
same as a full service
but with all the pads
replaced.
Complete
Overhaul
This
is the same as a full
repad but where there is
extra work needed to
keywork, mechanism etc.
(Common on older
instruments).

Educational
Offer
For
a fixed sum of £60.00 I
will come to the school
at a mutually convenient
time and check over all
your woodwind
instruments. This
includes two hours of my
time and any running
repairs I can do in that
time. I will give you an
inventory of any repair
work needed and I can
take instruments away
then or a future date can
be arranged. This work
will be done in my
workshop.
Instruments
can be sent VAT free to
any Local Education
Authority school.
