Repair
Your piano is no longer responding like it used to?
Understanding
before acting
Before talking about major repairs, it is necessary to understand what is really going on.
With over 25 years of experience, Patrick Brennan precisely targets the necessary adjustments without unnecessary work, without surprises, without exaggeration.
Restoring its best, without rebuilding everything
Our approach: Thoughtful and intelligent restoration, never systematic.
Every piano deserves a precise analysis before talking about major work.
Rather than imposing a complete restoration, I evaluate what can be optimized, adjusted, or improved in stages. The goal is simple: intervene where it is relevant, preserve what works, and evolve the instrument coherently — according to its condition, age, usage, and your budget.
When the instrument justifies it and the budget allows, a complete restoration can of course be considered. In this case, it is carried out with the same rigor: thoughtfully, planned, and adapted to the true potential of the piano.
The Result
A more precise
touch
Better
repetition
A dynamic
action
A more pleasant
piano to play
Regulation
(The maintenance your piano demands)
Regulation is the essential mechanical maintenance of the piano. Over time, felts compact, wood shifts, and adjustments go out of regulation.
Without regulation, the following appear:
A well-regulated action is the natural extension of your fingers.
What a regulation
may include
Depending on the condition of your piano, a complete regulation may include:
- ✓ Targeted mechanical adjustments
- ✓ Hammer alignment and maintenance
- ✓ Cleaning and lubrication of the action
- ✓ Repair or replacement of defective parts
- ✓ Key and pedal adjustments
Each piano is evaluated individually.
A piano is
also a legacy
A well-maintained piano transcends the years. It carries memories... and often a family history.
During a complete regulation, minor exterior touch-ups can be done free of charge, when possible — because a piano deserves to be both beautiful and functional.
Explain the symptoms to me
I will tell you frankly if an intervention is necessary — and which one.
