I have been rehairing bows for some 20 years and have built up an impressive clientele. I provide a full professional service using only natural, white unbleached hair, although coarse black hair is available for double bass bows. As part of the professional rehair I also remove all rosin deposits from the stick and thoroughly clean all metal work.
While you wait service: £60.00
Have you bow rehaired while you wait. You can explore the local Jacobean Manor House and surrounding park or visit the delightful Marion Wilson park with its animal enclosures. Or failing that I’ll make you a mug of tea and you can sit in my garden. It will take me around an hour to rehair your bow.”””

Have your bow rehaired with the finest quality hair, all metal work cleaned and polished and all harmful rosin deposits removed from the stick.
Basic rehair for Schools: £35.00
Your bow will be rehaired using white, unbleached hair.
Postal bow service £57.00
I offer a tried and trusted rehair by post service. Simply send me your bow in a strong tube, I’ll rehair your bow and post it back, usually within a few days.
Comments from clients
Sept. 2022 “Fantastic postal bow rehair. Quick, efficient and really good quality at a competitive price.
Would definitely use again and highly recommend to my string player buddies!”

Alan Shimell: Bow arrived safe and sound this morning, thank you for an excellent service.
Graham Brierton: Really nice job. Together with the new rosin I bought I have never had a better bowing experience. Grippy without dead spots. Thanks.
Alan Titherington (south east London) “Since being recommended to me as someone in SE London who did a good job at rehairing bows, I’ve not used anyone else. The quality of the hair is fantastic, and the job is done so well that I only generally have to return every year or so at the most, which, for the price, is great value. A far better finished product than has been experienced from any of the shops in town, and it’s always good to see that the stick’s been cleaned too!”
I was very impressed with Rob’s postal bow rehair service – the bow was returned very promptly, the quality of the hair is excellent and it has a superbly even tension. I will use him again and have no reservations recommending his work to any level of player!
