Technicians Will Tell You
If you think that your piano needs to be rebuilt, it might be beneficial to ask a professional piano restoration technician for advice as to how to proceed with the rebuilding process. Many piano technicians -- perhaps a majority of them -- do not have the skill or knowledge required for a complete rebuilding, so it is important that you consult with one that specializes in piano repair, refinishing and remanufacturing. The task is a major event for your piano as it consists of a complete overhaul. This includes
replacing the hammers
replacing or repairing the soundboard
replacing the pinblock
replacing the strings
replacing the dampers
regilding the plate
refinishing the exterior cabinet
