OUR SERVICES

SOURCING

For professional players or advanced students, who already have a specific custom flute set-up in mind, we can help find the exact specification. Buying a second-hand flute can be a smart move allowing for a better upgrade at a fraction of the cost of a new flute. 

REPAIRS

All musicians need a quality hands-on approach to woodwind repair and maintenance. Student flute servicing and repairs can be carried out by myself in London (Please contact me for details). Professional flute repairs are carried out by Steve Shaw at Cheshire Woodwind Ltd.

COMMISION SALES

If you have a used flute or used piccolo for sale and would like some help or advice, please do get in touch. We can also look at purchasing your flute/piccolo. Standard flat rate commission charged is 15% of sale price.

INSTRUMENT INSURANCE

Lastly, do not neglect insuring your instrument. I have heard so many stories of instruments being lost, stolen or damaged and the owner left to bear the cost. 

As introducers for specialist instrument insurers Newmoon Insurance Services Ltd, London Flutes have negotiated special discounts for new policyholders using one of the following voucher codes:

  • If your instrument is valued at £1500 or less, use code LF1M3 for one month free cover, via the Natural policy.
  • For instruments values above £1500, use code LF12411 under the Harmonic policy to get 12 months’ insurance for the price of 11.
