Restoration Examples

Over the years we have been fortunate to have worked with and still do, some of the finest examples of interesting cased pianos.

The restoration of a piano is a complex and lengthy process which takes skill, knowledge, experience and patience. We strive to restore the condition so that it is comparable to a new instrument, whilst retaining its integrity and character. This requires a combination of craftsmanship and artistic sensitivity. We take pride in the fact that we employ local craftsmen and any work which is out-sourced goes to local people.
The construction and working parts of a piano may seem mysterious and intriguing, and we are very happy to give potential restoration clients a personalised tour of the workshops to explain the process involved. Customers are also invited to see their instrument as a ‘work in progress’.
