Piano Refinishing

Refinishing the piano is the part of the rebuilding process that in the end, dazzles the eye and excites the visual field. For all pianos, but especially grand and baby grands, it is the piano's finish that triggers an aesthetic response where we see the form of the piano itself as an expression of fine art. The goal of piano refinishing is simple: the piano refinisher attempts to restore the piano to it's original look. But, in the piano refinishing area in our shop, restoring the finish is one of the more exciting stages of piano rebuilding because with refinishing it's possible to bring a piano's surface to an even more perfect state than it was when first purchased.

The best approach to fine piano building is to "slow down the line," as they say, but in the manufacturing process, only the finest piano companies can afford to slow down production enough to assure the consistently highest quality finish. This is a major difference between high volume manufacturing and a specialized refinishing shop like ours. We take a much more meticulous approach to piano refinishing. The piano refinishers at our shop are encouraged to take their work very personally. Our philosophy is that each piano is an original work of art. And we have proved time and time again that our piano refinishers are able to actually produce a finish on your piano that is even better than it was when first produced.

Certainly pianos refinished with sedulous care inevitably delight and impress because the thousands upon thousands of tiny specks of weathered corrosion have been rubbed away. The newly refinished wood glows in its clarity, the sheen polished perfectly.

If the process of piano rebuilding can be divided into three major stages, refinishing the piano's wooden exterior would be one of the three. When we refinish your piano our goal will be to return your piano to its most highly developed state, finished, refined and matching the quality of the wood it highlights and protects. Our modern shop is large enough to allow our piano refinishers the space and the tools to perfect the refinishing stage of piano rebuilding.
