Case
Whether restoring a concert grand’s elegance or reviving the ornate detail of a vintage upright, we ensure that the piano’s exterior reflects the same level of care and craftsmanship found within.
We provide expert piano case restoration, blending traditional techniques with modern finishing methods, with a meticulous eye for detail to bring out the natural beauty and integrity of each instrument. Services include structural repairs, veneer repair, as well as refinishing in a variety of finishes—ranging from hand-rubbed satin to authentic French polish.
Not only must a piano be a joy to play and listen to, the experience includes enjoying looking at - and sitting at - your piano.
Action
The action is a fundamentally important part of any piano. Something as small as one sticky note can severely impact the playing experience, it takes years to develop the skills, knowledge and discipline to achieve an action that plays with evenness and precision.
Our director Henry’s performance experience gives him an edge when it comes to regulation, with a natural intuition for how a piano should feel to play.
From sticky notes and ivory repair to full action rebuilds, we combine the finest quality materials with highest level of craftsmanship to allow your piano to reach its full potential.
