More Than a Refinish


A complete piano restoration goes far beyond making an instrument look new. The piano is carefully evaluated as a complete system, from its structural foundation and strings to the action, hammers, keyboard, and finish.

Components that no longer meet the required standard are repaired, rebuilt, or replaced. The action is restored and regulated, the instrument is restrung where required, and thousands of individual adjustments are made with precision.


Precision at Every Stage

With thousands of components working together, consistency matters. A small variation at one stage can influence touch, tone, stability, and performance later in the process.

This is why Piano Solutions XXI combines traditional craftsmanship with specialized tools and restoration methods developed to improve accuracy and repeatability.


Bringing the Instrument Back Together

The final stages are where everything comes together. Regulation establishes the touch and response. Tuning brings the instrument to pitch. Voicing shapes its tonal character.


The goal isn't simply to make an old piano look new. It's to restore the instrument as a complete musical system, ready to perform for another generation.
