See below for service estimates. Please be aware that our technicians do not work at the weekend.
Wait times for services
Due to an unprecedented and ongoing demand we have a very long wait list for all services and repairs.
To make a booking please call or email us using the form on this page. You can expect your instrument to be with us for a minimum of 2 weeks once it is here and assessed.
Certain small jobs including stuck brass mouthpieces and wooden clarinet tenon shaves under warranty can be performed in store quickly and with zero or minimum charge. Please make yourself known at the front counter if you suspect a warranty issue on an instrument purchased from Sax & Woodwind as it will be assessed as soon as possible.

Please remove everything from the case except the instrument (mouthpieces, swabs, lubricants) unless necks/mouthpieces need to be recorked.
