Williamson Warne & Associates is currently
the definitive authority on the repair and restoration
of tubular bell carillons (also known as tower chimes),
manufactured in the first half of the 20th century by the
J.C. Deagan in Chicago.
Members of our staff were trained by some of the remaining
members of the company prior to their passing. We have
been able to secure copies of many of the original drawings
and have produced some missing drawings.
We have constructed specialized equipments for the restoration
and testing of the equipment.
We maintain a generous supply of repair parts that we make
available. For those parts that we do not normally stock,
we do have a limited supply available.

operated cast-bell systems.
Besides repairing the Deagan carillons (tubular bells
or tower chimes), we offer to the general public for sale
a list
of repair parts.
We also maintain a limited supply of several other parts.
If you do not see in this listing what you are looking
for, please contact us and inquire as to your specific
needs. In the future, we will also be making available
technical drawings and specifications for sale of these
instruments.
