Insurance Valuations, Appraisals and Investments

violin cello repair Manchester Chester Wirral Cheshire Shropshire Lancashire Midlands London

INSURANCE

I can examine and provide a written report and valuation of any violin, viola, cello or double bass for insurance purposes which will ensure you are maintaining the correct level of cover for your instrument. 

I can also give a quick ball-park estimate free of charge and highlight any discernable external issues.


Whether you actually need seperate specialist musical instrument insurance will depend upon facts like: what home and car contents cover you already have in place and what excess will you have to pay in the event of a claim; the value of your instrument; where it's used and stored; and assessing the risk of theft or damage.  


So if you’re not sure if you should protect your instrument through an existing home contents policy or through a specialst musical instrument insurer then call in for a chat or ring for advice. 


APPRAISALS

I can examine and provide a written report regarding the condition of any violin, viola, cello or double bass that you are thinking of buying. 

This appraisal will highlight both internal or external issues with the instrument, in particular:

  • any open seams or cracks in particular hidden fine hair-line cracks.
  • detection and assessment of old repairs - which are often internal or external, concealed by a restored varnish.
  • any deficiencies or quirks in the instruments construction and the resulting effect on the instruments tone.
  • the instruments current worth and potential value.


INVESTMENTS

Historically, the violin market is robust and resists the volatility that exists in other antique sectors. In this respect, I can advise on the purchase and facilitate the acquisition of instruments for investment  purposes. 

Serving  Wales, Liverpool, Manchester, Chester, Wirral, Merseyside, Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, West Midlands, London, throughout the UK and beyond  ... call Michael on 07977 263617
