Repair & Maintenance

Are you having difficulty with your instrument? Maybe a key on your clarinet or saxophone is loose, the trumpet valve or trombone slide is sticking. What if your violin won’t stay in tune, electric guitar string broke or volume knob is not working? What if you’ve dropped your instrument and it broke? Even if you don’t know what's wrong, but your instrument isn’t playing easily anymore. What do you do?

Don’t worry, Falcetti Music is here to help guide you. At Falcetti Music we include our Repair and Maintenance service with every band and orchestral instrument we rent, to help ensure the playability of our instruments while in the care of inexperienced hands. This includes damage due to accidents. If you’re renting your school band or orchestral string instrument from us, all you need to do is call us and we’ll make arrangements to pick up your instrument and provide a loaner instrument to use while we repair your rental.

If you own your instrument, we’re still here to help! Let us perform an Instrument Repair Evaluation to determine the most suitable service for your instrument to get you playing again. Refer to the general listing of services provided below.
