My name is Barry Wateridge and I established my business in 1976 as a traditional French Polisher. I specialise in the renovation of grand, upright and square pianos. my considerable experience includes the repairing of casework, veneers, mouldings, soundboards and the renovation of brassware as well as restoration of all types of antique furniture. I have worked regularly with a number of reputable firms including Early Keyboard agency in Oxford, Abinger Organs in Abinger Hammer Surrey and Alan Organs in High Wycombe. These firms are willing to provide a reference and confirm my professionalism and high standards of work. My workshop is located in Hindhead Surrey, 20 minutes from the M25, junction 10. I can arrange for secure and professional transport of pianos to and from my work shop or work on site if feasible and more practical. All work that I undertake is subject to an initial survey and report. A written estimate will be provided subject to a charge which is deductable from the final bill.
