Repairs

 Local. Trusted. Precision-driven.

When your snare drum isn’t responding the way it should, or your kit needs more than just new heads, you need a drum tech who understands how instruments are built — not just how to tighten a tension rod.

At Radius Drums in Port Orchard, Washington, we offer professional drum repair and restoration services for drummers throughout Kitsap County and the surrounding Puget Sound area. Whether you’re in Bremerton, Silverdale, Poulsbo, Gig Harbor, or Tacoma, we’re here to help you get your drums sounding their best.

Our Drum Repair Services

We handle everything from quick fixes to full drum restorations:

Bearing Edge Work

Bearing edges are critical to how your drum sounds and tunes. We can repair damaged edges, re-cut worn profiles, or refinish edges to restore optimal head contact and tone.

Hardware Replacement & Upgrades

Stripped lugs? Broken throw-off? Worn tension rods? We source and install high-quality replacement hardware to get your drum back in working order — or upgrade it to premium components.

Shell Repair & Crack Fixes

Cracks, splits, or delamination in drum shells can be repaired. We assess the damage and recommend the best course of action to restore structural integrity and sound quality.

Re-Finishing & Refinishing

Whether your drum needs a fresh clear coat, a color change, or a complete refinish, we can strip, sand, and refinish shells to look like new.

Snare Wire Replacement

Old, corroded, or broken snare wires kill your snare response. We’ll replace them with high-quality wires that bring your drum back to life.

Drum Tuning & Setup

Not sure how to get your drums sounding right? We offer professional drum tuning services to help you dial in the tone you’re after — whether it’s for the studio, live gigs, or just jamming at home.

Vintage Drum Restoration

Got a classic Ludwig, Slingerland, or Gretsch kit that needs some love? We specialize in restoring vintage drums while preserving their original character and value.
