Restoration Services
Repairs can be performed on any instrument. Send pictures with a brief description of the problem or work you would like done. I may be able to give an expected range of costs from the photos. A firm quote can only be developed after physical inspection of the instrument but can occur before work begins. Shipping costs to & from are the customer’s responsibility and are non-refundable. All repair work is guaranteed for one year.
Typical restoration activities are:
- Revalving reedplates
- Cleaning/derusting reeds
- Rewaxing reedplates onto reedblocks or directly onto reedpans
- Minor bellows leak repair (frame interface and corner leaks)
- Flattening reedblock bottoms to minimize leakage
- Repadding key pallet faces for quietness and better sealing
- Replacing bellows gaskets
- Keyboard repair or replacement
- Sticky button troubleshooting
- Button travel limiting
