Boston piano refinishing

25 years of precision, small production run, woodworking and machining offers technicians the expertise and equipment that can allow them to efficiently undertake work they otherwise might “pass” on. I can help you do the “hard stuff”.

For example, some Steinways particularly Steinway B’s, and some Mason & Hamlins, have challenging non-parallel strike lines. I can achieve a true half-stroke design throughout the scale, offering a level of touch-weight control which is difficult to achieve otherwise.

I highly recommend the Rib Crowned and Supported Soundboards I design and fabricate. In our piano unfriendly New England climate these boards have a much greater chance of survival than compression crowned boards.
