In many homes, tucked away in a corner, sits a piano. Dust gathers on its keys. The lid is closed. The strings are silent.
Yet beneath that stillness lies history: a child’s first lessons, evenings of practice, and family gatherings filled with music. Every piano carries echoes of the past.
The Piano Restorer believes that such heritage deserves not just to be remembered, but to be heard again.
Restoring a piano is not simply a matter of repairing what is broken. It is an act of respect — for the instrument’s craftsmanship, its materials, and its unique voice.
The team at The Piano Restorer approaches every project as both a technical and artistic endeavour, ensuring that each piano regains its true tone and beauty. When a piano arrives at the workshop, it is treated as a story waiting to be retold — one key, one string, one sound at a time.
Based in Taunton, Somerset, The Piano Restorer operates from a purpose-built restoration workshop designed for precision, efficiency, and care.
The space includes:
Dedicated stations for action work, wood and metal repairs, and polishing.
Specialist refinishing equipment, allowing each piano to look as beautiful as it sounds.
A calm, organised environment where every detail receives full attention.
Visitors can explore the workshop in more detail through the feature: New Piano Restoration Workshop in Somerset – Behind the Scenes.
Inspection & Consultation – The process begins with careful assessment and discussion to understand the owner’s goals and the piano’s potential.
Structural & Mechanical Restoration – Soundboards, strings, tuning pins, and the action are expertly rebuilt or regulated to restore strength and playability.
Case & Finish – Veneers are repaired, surfaces polished, and hardware renewed so the piano looks as good as it sounds.
Final Touches & Setup – Each instrument is voiced, tuned, and balanced to ensure it performs beautifully in its environment.
Handover & Care Guidance – Clients receive detailed advice on caring for their restored piano to preserve its tone and condition for many years to come.
For those with an emotional connection to their instrument, restoration is almost always worthwhile. Whether it’s a cherished family heirloom or a vintage grand awaiting revival, restoration often costs less than purchasing a new piano of similar quality — and the result is far richer in history and sentiment.
Even pianos with cracked soundboards, worn finishes, or long years of neglect can be brought back to life through skilled craftsmanship. More details can be found in the FAQs.
Every piano that passes through The Piano Restorer’s doors leaves with more than a renewed voice — it carries a legacy forward.
