Trumpet Repairs

“Our trumpet repairs service at Booths Music is designed to restore playability, reliability and tonal clarity to instruments of all ages and standards. “

From student trumpets to professional models, even small mechanical issues can have a major impact on response, tuning and confidence. Expert trumpet repairs ensure your instrument performs exactly as it should.

Trumpet Repairs With Booths

At Booths, we carry out brass repairs on a wide range of instruments, including trumpets, cornets, euphoniums, French horns, tubas and other valved brass instruments. Our workshop has extensive experience carrying out trumpet repairs for a wide range of players, from beginners to advanced performers. Whether your trumpet needs attention due to wear, damage or ongoing performance issues, Booths Music offers professional, reliable repair work carried out with care and precision.

Valve Alignment

A central element of many trumpet repairs is valve servicing and valve honing. Smooth, accurately fitted valves are essential for fast action and consistent airflow. Sticky, sluggish or noisy valves can make playing frustrating and unreliable. Our workshop carefully cleans, aligns and hones valves where required, restoring smooth movement and dependable performance.

Tricky Slides

We also carry out the easing, cleaning and alignment of slides, including tuning slides and valve slides. Stiff or seized slides are a common issue and can seriously affect tuning control and regular maintenance. As part of our trumpet repairs service, slides are adjusted to move freely while maintaining an airtight seal.

Corks, Felts & Bumpers

The replacement of corks, felts and valve bumpers is another important aspect of trumpet repairs. Worn or missing felts can lead to noisy valve action, incorrect alignment and unnecessary wear on the instrument. Renewing these components improves feel, reduces mechanical noise and helps protect the trumpet over time.

Recent Reviews

After buying a second hand trumpet elsewhere, I took it into the shop and had it cleaned and serviced by Tony, who did an excellent job with it for a very reasonable price. He even took it back into his workshop at no extra cost, a week or so later, when one of the valves was sticking again - and I have had no problems with it since!

"My six year old flute was beginning to sound breathy and it was getting hard to play top notes clearly (I thought it was me). Tony serviced my flute last week. It sounds like a brand new flute! It sings again 🎶. Tony replaced a faulty key pad and sorted out the cork mechanism which was moving around. Thank you so much. I’ll be back again next year for its next service 🙂"
