I will happily collect and return your instrument for a modest fee, agreed in advance.
If your instrument case needs attention, I will be pleased to try and mend it for you, or supply a suitable replacement if you prefer.
Thank you for repairing my crumpled Conn88H. I was worried how well it could be repaired, but am very happy with the result. Overhaul is great - slide action improved, valve in much better condition. Done in excellent time, at a very reasonable price

Thanks for sorting the Trombone out so quickly! I am really impressed with your work on the bell & in removing dents, freeing tuning slides, sorting the slide & fixing joints – brilliant job. I will certainly be passing on your details to colleagues.

My trumpet is blowing beautifully since you serviced it, the valves have never been better.

Thanks for your excellent work on my trumpet, Paul - it is amazing how much better you feel about an instrument that is not bent. Valves [are] good [now], too!
