Top Ten Reasons for Finding a Local Repairperson

While many people will ship instruments for work, it’s also a good idea to have someone close by to do work for you.

  1. It’s a good opportunity to build a relationship with your repairperson.
  2. Your repairperson will become more familiar with you and your instrument and this is helpful when diagnosing and repairing problems.
  3. It is not always easy to describe in words what is working or not on your instrument. Demonstrating the problem is sometimes the most effective means of communication.
  4. You get to see all the cool tools that the repairperson uses.
  5. You can watch while your instrument is taken apart.
  6. Mail is a hassle.
  7. Home made desserts and treats for the repairperson do not hold up well in the mail.
  8. After the work is finished, you can try out your flute with the repairperson there and get final adjustments made to have the instrument feel just the way you like it.
  9. It’s the day before a concert and your flute doesn’t sound right.
  10. It’s three hours before a concert and your E key is sticking.
