Comprehensive Acoustic And Mechanical Upgrades
At 1066 Pianos, our refurbishment service falls between light restoration and a full rebuild, offering a detailed upgrade to both the acoustic body and mechanical action without requiring complete disassembly. We address wear, replace tired components where necessary, and ensure every element functions smoothly and efficiently. This process improves tone, touch, and reliability while maintaining the piano's original character. By focusing on precise acoustic and mechanical restoration, we create an instrument that performs consistently and responds with expressiveness across every note.
Precise Action And Keyboard Regulation
Refined touch and responsiveness are central to refurbishment. We accurately regulate the piano's action and keyboard, calibrating each mechanical interaction to ensure balanced and predictable performance. This meticulous work enhances the piano's expressive range and dynamic control, enabling smoother play and a more enjoyable experience. By adjusting the interaction of every component, we enhance the overall feel and performance of the instrument while preserving its historical and musical personality.
Cabinet Refinishing And Exterior Revival
The exterior of your piano receives dedicated attention during refurbishment. We either re-polish the cabinet for a high-quality finish or revive existing polish for a cleaner, refreshed appearance. Brass fittings are carefully burnished to restore their original lustre, complementing the renewed cabinet. At 1066 Pianos, we ensure the visual presentation matches the internal enhancements, creating an instrument that looks as refined as it sounds. This careful restoration preserves elegance while maintaining durability and long-term beauty for your piano. Explore the retrofit & self-play page for clear guidance on upgrading your instrument with sensitive, integrated technology.
Suitable Instruments, Pricing, And Timescale
This refurbishment is ideal for structurally sound pianos that are free from moth damage and require more extensive restorative work. It brings significant improvements to tone, texture, and appearance without requiring a complete rebuild. Pricing ranges from £5,000 to £10,000, depending on the piano's condition and the level of detail required. The typical duration is 2–3 months. By selecting refurbishment, we enhance the beauty, performance, and longevity of your piano through thoughtful, skilled work, providing excellent value and a fast turnaround time.
