Piano Restoration
Full restoration that returns a beloved instrument to — or beyond — its original specification.
Piano Restoration
A piano that has been played and loved for decades accumulates wear across every mechanical system. Full restoration returns the instrument to — or beyond — its original specification. Our restoration work covers:
Restore or Replace?
Restore when the instrument has sentimental or heritage value, when it is a quality make that would cost significantly more to replace new, or when the structural components (rim, soundboard, pin block) remain fundamentally sound.
Replace when the cost of restoration exceeds 60–70% of a comparable new instrument's value, or when structural damage is beyond economic repair.
Master Ranjan will assess your instrument honestly and give you an unbiased recommendation — even if that recommendation is to invest in a new instrument from our collection.
“Every piano that comes to us for restoration is treated as if it were a patient. We diagnose before we prescribe.”
— Master Ranjan Fernando

Our Restoration Process
Consultation
We discuss the instrument's history, condition, and your goals — heritage preservation, performance use, or resale value.
Inspection
A full structural assessment of the rim, soundboard, pinblock, and action determines the true scope of work required.
Service Execution
Restringing, hammer reshaping, action rebuilding, and cabinet refinishing are carried out to the agreed scope and specification.
Quality Check
The fully restored piano is voiced, regulated, and play-tested across its entire range before it leaves our workshop.
Completion
You receive full documentation of the work performed, along with care guidance for your newly restored instrument.
What a Full Restoration Achieves
Concert-Grade Tone Restored
Reshaped hammers and a regulated action recover the dynamic range and tonal richness the piano had when new.
Preserves Heritage Value
A family heirloom or quality vintage make retains its sentimental and resale value rather than being discarded.
Decades of Renewed Life
A properly restored piano can perform reliably for several more decades, often outlasting a comparable new instrument.
Often More Economical
For a quality make, restoration frequently costs significantly less than purchasing a comparable new grand or upright.
