  I get my yearly service done with Brass Toff, and every year my instrument has come back like new. Shiny, slick valves and slides, new corks and absolutely spotless inside. He also took out a small 2mm dent beautifully. Top quality service … More all around and a lovely guy!

  Whilst doing an urgent repair to a tuba today, paul immediately did a repair on a baritone horn for me, to avoid me returning from north wales later in the week to collect. He was highly recommended to me, and is THE brass repair man.

  I took six band instruments to Paul for a service and general fettling ranging in size from a Bb bass, bass trombone, flugel, Bb cornet (x 2) to a soprano cornet. They came back looking like new and playing beautifully. After being in the … More business for such a long time, I truly believe that there is nothing that Paul can't do and to an exceptional level of workmanship. Thank you very much.

  Paul at brass toff is an increasingly rare breed, as someone who served a long apprenticeship alongside very experienced brass repair masters, before having is own long established company. As a first class player and Conductor he not only … More understands instruments, but also what the player needs from servicing and repairs.
  A friendly knowledgeable service at very reasonable rates and prompt return.
  Brass Toff is the regular repairer for my band.

  This instrument is so precious to me. It belonged to my Dad who played it in The King's Own and various bands until he was 80 years young!
  Paul (aka Brass Toff) expertly restored it, repairing the valves and slides even though it would … More not be played. I cannot thank him enough for his knowledge of his craft and his clear understanding of bandsmen and the special relationship they have with their instruments and the music they love . . . he is a real craftsman! 🤩

  I've taken instruments to Brass Toff before so knew it would be a good service.
  The service and repair of my 1973 Olds Trumpet was superb.
  Thanks Paul and Melanie.

  Went to see Brass Toff with a problem with one of my valves (after I foolishly tried to remove a stuck valve cap myself). Paul kindly sorted it for me while I waited. He also knocked out a few dents in the bell and generally went about … More his work whilst chatting amiably. When I got home and blew all three valves were playing as smoothly as they ever had. And the trumpet as a whole seemed to be much more responsive and the notes much more centred. Was a tired horn that I’ve played for several hours a day for nearly 20 years, and Paul has definitely given it a new lease of life. Superb craftsman…highly recommended!
