Our most discerning customers have very specific requirements for their Steinway restoration and we are happy to accommodate them.
We take care to understand the needs and preferences of our customers and tailor our hand-restoration to those needs. Unlike Steinway we restore both grand and upright pianos, and we offer a flexible restoration process.
No matter how you choose to tailor your Steinway restoration, Lindeblad will utilize our century of experience to make it perfect for you. We are not satisfied until you are satisfied. And beyond that, we stand behind our work with an industry leading warranty. We match Steinway's 5 year warranty on the soundboard and extend it an additional 15 years on all other parts.
Many customers prefer their Steinway to be restored to it's original specifications. Historical accuracy is not always possible using genuine Steinway parts, as Steinway has modernized some components over the years. When historical accuracy is the goal, we source parts from world-renowned manufacturers such as Renner and Bolduc.
In an era of mass production and paper thin veneers glued onto pressboard, the hand-carved detail, solid hardwood veneer, and precision workmanship of an early 20th century Steinway is utterly unsurpassed. We believe that a true restoration of one of these pianos must follow in that same tradition. Every aspect of a Lindeblad restoration is completed by hand. There is no automation. No heavy machinery. We will be able to tell you exactly who worked on every stage of your Steinway's restoration. Our master craftsmen have been practicing their artistry for decades, restoring more than 3,000 Steinways.
Restoring pianos to their original glory lies at the core of what we do. With over 20 craftspeople and 300 years of combined experience, craftsmanship is an essential part of what makes Lindeblad Piano what it is.
Being a third-generation Lindeblad, Eric has been learning the art of piano restoration his entire life. With over 40 years of craftsman experience, Eric is a master rebuilder with a specialty in action assembly and regulation.
For most of our restorations the original Steinway soundboard is still in great condition.
We simply reinforce, repair and refinish the original soundboard.
If the soundboard needs to be replaced, we will hand craft it to Steinway's specifications. We use the exact same close-grain Alaska Sitka spruce, from the same suppliers as Steinway New York and Steinway Hamburg. In fact, our senior soundboard craftsman spent the first 30 years of his career making soundboards for Steinway.
After four generations and over a century of guiding our customers through the repair and restoration of Steinway pianos, great service has become a part of our DNA.
Whether you are a professional with highly technical questions, or a novice trying to figure out the basics, you will be able to rely on the friendly counsel of our piano experts. We pride ourselves on our ability to build relationships with our customers. This allows us to understand your unique requirements so that we can custom tailor your Steinway restoration.
“We had been searching for a restored Steinway for over a year. With Paul's help we chose a gorgeous 1922 Steinway that had been meticulously refurbished. It is a beautiful instrument, and we look forward to having it in our family for generations to come.”
Once your piano is delivered, we give you 30 days to play it and make sure everything is exactly as you wish. If not, simply let us know, and we will pick up the piano and give you a full refund. Additionally, when you buy a restored piano from Lindeblad you can, at any time in the future, exchange that piano for another of our pianos and apply the full price you paid to the exchange.
