Djembe Drum Repair

Sageman Drums is proud to offer it's world class djembe repair service to the public. We are one of the only full service djembe repair shops in the continental United States. Like our drums, our repair service is top of the line. When you send your drum to us for repair be assured that we only use high quality goatskins that have been hand inspected by our repair staff. Once your drum has been repaired we will tighten and tune the drum and apply a coat of orange oil which refreshes the finish of your drum. We then ship your drum back to you in our custom drum packaging and pick up the return freight charges. You will need to pay for the repair service prior to shipping your drum to us. The drum repair process works like this:

If your drum is a Sageman drum and it is still in the warranty period your drum will be fixed for free. Please contact us during business hours at 949-497-6469 to make arrangements for shipment of your djembe to our repair facility.

Otherwise, follow these steps:

1. Measure the width of your drum head. (Do not include the rope in the measurement). See Drum repair icon for a view of where to measure.

2. Purchase the appropriate repair service (purchase is based on your drum head size)

3. Send us your drum for repair along with a copy of your paid receipt to:

5. Your drum will be cleaned up, packaged, and returned to you by Sageman Drums.
