Drew Sorensen says: "Cork pads require very even tone holes, and I'm pretty sure this requires extra work from a skilled repairman to have the instrument seal properly."
The work has two steps:
(1) making sure the rims are level and, if necessary, slightly inclined so that the pad comes down evenly at all points; and
(2) sealing the wood around the rim to stop subtle leaks through the wood grain.
When it's done right, it can make dramatic improvements.
