Is My Piano Worth Restoring?
How to weigh sentiment, market value and rebuild cost honestly.
Start with the maker and the era. Quality instruments from established builders reward a rebuild; many mass-market spinets do not.
Compare the estimated rebuild cost with the price of a good used instrument of similar size in the Denver market.
Sentiment is a legitimate reason to restore a family piano, provided you go in knowing the numbers.
A partial approach often makes sense: action rebuilding and regulation transform playability at a fraction of a full restoration.
