Clean, Oil, Adjust (COA) and Overhauls

 

What is a COA?

A COA typically involves 

  • Complete disassembly of the instrument, including disassembly of the key mechanism itself.   
  • The body is cleaned, the mechanism is hand cleaned and new oil applied. 
  • The headjoint cork is replaced unless otherwise specified.
  • All pads, key felts/corks are assessed for wear and replaced if needed.*  
  • All pads are shimmed as needed and the flute is extensively play tested.


On average a COA requires about 4-8 hours of "Bench Time"  (hours actively working on the instrument), This does not include "resting" time or time "playing in" each adjustment etc.

* Replacement of pads is an additional charge.

 ** Instruments which have not had a complete COA in 3 years or more will often require an additional 1-2 hours labour (at $100/hour)  and possibly a few pads. Please keep this in mind when consulting the prices listed below.  


COAs typically take 3-5 days to complete (shipping time not included)

What is an overhaul?

An overhaul involves:

  • The complete disassembly and reconditioning of the instrument. 
  • All pads, regulation material kicker/foot materials, corks etc are removed.
  • The instrument is completely cleaned*, and lightly hand polished (unless otherwise requested).
  • The mechanism is refit to remove lateral/ 'side to side' play, and hinge rods/steels are cleaned to remove any scratches or rust.
  • Key cups and toneholes are checked for level and addressed if needed using only manufacturer approved techniques.
  • New stabilizers (if used), pads, shims, regulation material, kicker material, corks etc are correctly installed
  • The instrument is "played in" for a number of hours (2-6 typically) to "settle" the new materials.


On average an overhaul requires about 30-40 hours of "Bench Time" (hours actively working on the instrument), This does not include "resting" time or time "playing in" each adjustment etc. 


*Wooden bodies and heads are oiled. We use manufacturer recommended, natural, peanut and nut-free oils for oiling. If you have any food allergies, please make sure this is noted with us!


Overhauls typically take 3-4 weeks to complete (shipping time not included)
