We take pianos seriously. To “restore” a piano these days is to “remanufacture” a piano to play as it did when new. And in many cases, to play better than new.
Depending on the piano, restoration could mean replacing everything except the case and iron plate making a “New” piano in the original case. Or it could mean working with some of the original elements to recondition the instrument to play to the best of its abilities. This depends on the instrument’s condition and of course most importantly the preference of the instrument’s owner.
We work with you to custom tailor the instrument to just what you’re looking for. With modern techniques such as Stanwood action balancing, custom tailored soundboards, and custom made hammers we have the tools to create a superior instrument. Whether it’s a certain touch , sound, or look, nothing is out of the question when we are taking care of the restoration.
Our Restoration Process:
Often many older pianos were built well enough that they could be worth restoring. Between the beautifully veneered and hand carved cabinets, and the strong structural supports it is almost a crime not to “bring back to life” these amazing pieces of history. This is our passion and we use only the best parts and materials available.
Common types of work that we do includes: Full Refinishing including structural repairs, and custom cabinet restoration. Action Rebuilding(to Stanwood protocols), Belly Work: re-stringing, pinblock replacement, bridge repairs or recapping, soundboard repairs or replacement. Key reconditioning/replacement, and much more.
