Piano Restoration From The Experts

We are piano restoration specialists and have been lovingly restoring pianos for over 40 years. We carry out repair work here in our workshops in Oxford; we do not send pianos away cheaply to Eastern Europe for reconditioning or restoration (which many other firms do).

In a typical piano restoration, we will do all of the following:

  • Restore the piano soundboard
  • Restring and re-pin the piano frame
  • Restore/rebuild the action/keyboard/damper assembly
  • Strip down and hand repolish the cabinet to reveal the pianos natural woodgrain
  • Raise to pitch and stretch strings, fine-tune to A-440
  • Extensively regulate the touch and damping
  • Overhaul the pianos pedal assembly

Here at Courtney Pianos we appreciate the skills and dedication shown by the original craftsmen who built these fine instruments and endeavour to show the same commitment when we restore them back to their former glory, to last for another 100 years.

If you have a lovely older piano that you cherish but which no longer looks or performs at its best, why not consider sending it to us for restoration? We will give it a new lease of life!

    Piano Restoration Reviews

    Just a quick note to say how impressed I was with the prompt arrival and care taken by your delivery team. I am absolutely delighted with the appearance of the piano – it looks every bit as marvellous as I had hoped it would. The level of finish is quite superb – a true restoration!

    P. Whiteman (West London)

    On behalf of the Officers’ Mess and all Members here at Andover, I write to thank you for the outstanding work that you and your team have done refurbishing our Steinway Piano. We are absolutely delighted with it and the one serious pianist who has played it so far, who incidentally has owned one of this own just like it in the USA, said it is a superb instrument and he was very envious.

    P.G. Fisher MBE (Andover)

    Thank you ever so much for your lovely work on our piano. It has arrived and we nearly did not recognise it! The wood grain is so beautiful and something we did not expect. And the sound is lovely.

    M Meldrum (South Coast)

    I wanted to write and that you and let you know how delighted I am to be reunited with my old Broadwood piano and to share my amazement at what an amazing piano you have restored it to! The way it sounds and plays is almost unrecognisable to me, the touch is completely different and the sound is very much richer. It is a delight to play. I never realised how much potential for great sound my piano had!

    K Swaine (Herts)

    I am just writing to say thank you so much for the wonderful work you have undertaken in restoring my Richard Lipp Baby Grand Piano. It looks truly beautiful inside and out and I have spent many hours practising on it already.
