Instrument making and repair
Servicing and restoring woodwind and brass musical instruments for the last 45 years. Paul has spent his entire life training and working as a repairer and builder.
Paul studied Woodwind making and repairing at Newark College in the early 1970s and gained their diploma with distinction. He then went on to work for Rudall Carte flute makers in London for some years, and then for Boosey and Hawkes when the two companies joined.
After running a small independent workshop in Churchgate, Leicester, Paul became a repairer in the woodwind workshop at Sheehan’s Music Services, and remained there for 15 years from the start of that business in 1984.
The Workshop
Paul now works Wednesdays and Thursdays only, from his own workshop in Syston, Leicester.
Repairs, restoration and services need discussion because every instrument and each player is different and will have unique requirements.
Call Paul 9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. Wednesday or Thursday to discuss.
