Piano Refinishing

THE PROBLEM:


Old finishes become very dark, chipped, "alligatored", and may have missing veneer. 

The SOlution:

Refinishing

Your  piano case will be completely disassembled down to the last screw. It  will then be stripped of it's old finish and hand-sanded down to bare  wood. Stain is applied (we can change a piano's original color if  desired), followed by the highest quality finishes. Oil and poly  finishes are available in satin through gloss. All hardware is replated  or polished and returned to the piano. This is a tedious and  time-consuming process.

Cost  varies considerably depending on the size, type, and amount of detail  on the piano, but generally runs from about $4000 - $7000.

The end result is spectacular!
