REPAIRS
Keeping pace with the costs of running an orchestra program is difficult, especially with the common repair needs that come with a growing instrument inventory. But meeting the needs of your students is vital to a successful program.
We can help you stretch your budget further because we offer reasonable prices and solid service.
- Comprehensive Instrument Assessment: Each summer, we will visit your school on-site and look through your entire inventory to assess your repair needs (please have the instruments unpacked and ready to be examined). We let you know what repairs are essential, which are recommended, and which can be delayed. We determine a cost for the repairs you choose and stick to that cost (barring unforeseen problems) so you can better manage your budget. If your repairs total more than $1000, the delivery fees are waived. During the school year, we generally deliver between 7:30 and 9 in the morning.
- Repairs that Last: We know the abuse that your instrument inventory suffers at the hands of new musicians. It’s frustrating keeping up with repairs while trying to focus on teaching. We do everything we can to make sure your experience is satisfying. We craft our bridges extra sturdy to withstand warping, bending, and breakage. We have found little to no loss of sound production, but a great increase in bridge-life. If one of our repairs should need attention, we stand by our work and will correct the problem without charge.
- Convenient Pick-up and Drop-off Service: It’s difficult to find the time (and the vehicle space) to be constantly taking instruments in for repair. We offer instrument retrieval and delivery. Let us arrange to pick up your instrument between 7:30 and 9 am.
