Grand Piano Refinishing -- The Perfect Way to Restore Your Piano!
If you're the proud owner of a grand piano, then grand piano refinishing may be something you'll need to look into at some point. Like everything, pianos are susceptible to the ravages of wear and aging.
Many grand pianos are antique heirlooms, and replacing them just isn't an option. Grand pianos can last for hundreds of years if they're cared for properly, and refinishing is part of that care. This process is one that you'll have to hire a professional to do, because it's such an involved process. By attempting grand piano refinishing on your own, you could damage your beloved piano. So what's involved in the process? Let's take a look!
Your piano will be stripped of it's old finish. Any loose veneer will be reglued, and all scratches, dents and cracks will be filled. Then, the entire piano will be professionally sanded and restained.
Next comes soundboard repair. Any loose ribs will be reattached, and any cracks in the soundboard will be fixed. The old finish on the soundboard is sanded away, then finished with a varnish. Lastly, new decals will be applied.
Then, restringing is done. The plate and dampers will be refinished and new felts will be attached. New pins in the pin block are installed to hold strings of custom length. Then, new hammers and flanges are installed and aligned. Keytops will be refinished and sharps reenameled. The keys will then be properly leveled and all parts of your piano regulated.
Upon completion of grand piano refinishing, you'll be presented with a professional refinishing certificate. What you can expect to pay for grand piano refinishing will depend on the type of piano you have and the company you choose to do the work. Although this service isn't cheap, it's often the only option available for you if you don't want to replace your grand piano. And because grand pianos are so costly, refinishing can save you thousands of dollars.
By having your grand piano professionally refinished, you can restore it to its original grandeur and ensure that it stays in perfect playing condition for generations to come!
