FROM TUNING & REPAIRS TO OVERHAULS & VOICING: OUR
RANGE OF ORGAN SERVICES

Expertise in diagnosis and resolution of problems

​Pipe organs are noted for their reliability and long life – some can last for more than 150 years with regular maintenance and tuning.

​

But as experienced UK organ builders, we know that even the best can go wrong, catching out an organist and possibly spoiling a concert or a church service.

​

Low humidity can cause action faults, a cipher can spring from nowhere, leather may perish and temperature changes can de-tune pipes.​​

Organ Console

Swell pedals or sliders may stick, soundboards may suffer rain damage, pneumatic motors may fail, metal pipes may collapse and software issues can silence the instrument.

​​

Our experienced Yorkshire-based team has many years of experience in the swift diagnosis and resolution of such problems across the country. We also have expertise in voicing organ pipes for ourselves or others.

​

We are accredited by the Institute of British Organ Building for professional workmanship and offer a complete service, from tuning to restoration, for pipe organs in churches, colleges or home across England and the UK.

 

So whether an instrument requires repairing, renovating or restoring, please contact us. We visit most parts of the UK and you can be assured of scrupulous, professional work.
