- Structural Repairs for Broken Pipes -
Please talk to us if your pipes are in need of structural or cosmetic repair. Splits, cracks, breaks, chips, and warps may be out of our ability to fix. Aside from the small hairline crack or the gluing of a projection mount, we may not be able to repair broken pipes. We will gladly accept preliminary pictures of your instrument's condition to see what we can do. Get in touch with us to discuss your repairs.
Packaging your pipes:
Please take care to send us your instrument safely. We recommend bubble wrapping each section of the instrument and cushioning more with extra bubble wrap or packing paper. Return shipping via ground service to you will cost approximately $19.00. Refurbishment times can vary widely depending on what needs to be done. Send your instrument to the following address:
U.S. Mail, FedEx or UPS:
J. Higgins, Ltd.
10559 Lackman Rd.
Lenexa, KS 66219
Be sure to insure the package and get tracking details for yourself. We will reach out to you as soon as we have reviewed your instrument and the work that needs done.
