OFFICIAL LIST of Tuba repair/overhauls/restoration

[Levaix]

Dana Hofer in Des Plaines, IL. Extremely good work and a great guy to work with; many professional Chicago musicians trust him with their instruments, including several notable tuba players.

Mike Nye in Tempe, AZ. Worked on my tubas and euphoniums.

However, other than having an ultrasound setup, they do not appear to have anyone who is a "brass person."

Two fantastic shops here in North Carolina:

Sweeney Brass in Raleigh:https://www.sweeneybrass.com/
Scott does all kinds of custom work very well.

And Mike Morse in Durham: https://www.morseinstrumentrepair.com/

What would also be useful would be a list of shops that can do valve (piston or rotary) overhaul and rebuilding (plating, honing, etc.), such as what used to be done by Anderson.

Mike himself worked on my tubas and euphoniums. He does not do major dent work that involves taking the tuba apart.

Milano Music https://milanomusic.com/ in Mesa, AZ

They just finished major dent work on my Cerveny Kaiser 601 BBb which involved taking it apart. I am pleased with their work.

Vurl Bland has his own shop in Tolar, TX (southwest of Fort Worth). He gets all my work and does a super job.

And don't forget Baltimore Brass:

I agree with HEAVY_METAL.
Baltimore Brass has repaired and cleaned my tubas, they always do a great job!

Best,
Mark

[Dents Be Gone!]

I agree, guys. This is the way to go.

Beeman Brass in Eastlake Ohio does wonderful work. I have a working partnership with them for larger jobs that I'm not currently equipped to do.

Shameless plug, Ferris Brass in Pandora Ohio. Just west of Findlay and north of Lima. I am currently working on getting a full overhaul setup, but I can do most repairs and modifications. I did a formal apprenticeship in Cleveland where we worked mostly on high-end vintage french horn restoration.
