Is restoring a piano worth the investment?
It can be, especially if the piano has sentimental value or was originally built with high-quality materials. Restoration can add decades to the instrument’s lifespan and significantly improve tone, touch and appearance.
Cost-wise, it’s often more economical than replacing the piano with a new model of similar build. A technician can assess if your piano is a good candidate for restoration.
What’s involved in a full piano restoration?
A full restoration includes both internal and external work. Mechanically, this can mean replacing worn hammers, regulating the action, restringing, fixing the soundboard or tightening tuning pins.
Aesthetically, it may involve cabinet refinishing, key resurfacing or reconditioning pedals. The scope varies by instrument and is tailored to its condition and performance goals.
How long will the repairs or restoration take?
Small repairs might be completed during a single visit, but more extensive restoration work can take several weeks. The timeline depends on parts availability, the level of disassembly required, and whether the piano remains onsite or is transported for workshop work.
A clear timeline is usually provided after the initial assessment.
How do I know if my piano needs restoration or just tuning?
If your piano consistently drifts out of tune, has uneven key response, produces weak or muffled tone, or shows physical wear like cracked hammers or sluggish pedals, it may need more than just tuning. Tuning corrects pitch, but it doesn’t fix mechanical issues.
Restoration addresses the internal mechanics—like action regulation, hammer condition and string tension—that affect how the piano plays and sounds overall.
If tuning doesn’t seem to hold, or your piano just doesn’t feel right to play anymore, it’s worth having a technician evaluate whether a deeper service is needed.
