Brass Toff continues to lead the way

Get your instruments repaired by one of the finest brass specialist companies in the UK

Brass Toff
  Brass Toff continues to lead the way with its outstanding service, craftsmanship and customer care

Established in 1983, Brass Toff is an instrument repair, renovation and sales business based in Warrington.

Leading

It continues to perform as one of the leading brass repair specialist companies in the UK, with some of the most competitive prices available, and is owned by the well-known conductor Paul Andrews.

Paul has over 35 years of experience, having learned the trade under the professional guidance at Thomas Reynolds for five years, and through experience of playing, conducting, adjudicating and musical knowledge, has one of the most established and varied companies in the country.

Quality craftsmanship


As a result of Paul's quality craftsmanship, Brass Toff's reputation continues to excel, resulting in an extensive client base across the UK and Channel Islands. This has been built over many years, through an efficient, trustworthy personal service — one that sees Brass Toff continue to maintain and repair the musical instruments for student and professional musicians alike.

It is also why Elijah Yue, owner of Elliott Brass Ltd has made Brass Toff the exclusive UK provider of the Elliott Range of instruments.

Competitive prices

As well as our private customers, Brass Toff also looks after the instruments for many youth music services, educations and brass bands due to the superb service as well as their educational discount.

Paul Andrews told 4BR: "As my hobby as a musician has run parallel to my work, I have the good fortune to have many of my clients both as friends and colleagues. How many people get to have a job like that?"

Like our own

He added: "Brass Toff works by a motto I was taught during my time at Reynolds; "Treat every instrument like it is your own", as we understand the trust needed by our customers to leave their expensive instruments in our hands."
