Piano Rescue Fail Today! 🎹
Today we inspected an older piano that seemed like a great find. Unfortunately, several internal wooden components had deteriorated and broken, causing some keys to stop functioning properly. The repair cost would likely run into the hundreds of dollars.
This is a good reminder that a "free" piano isn't always free. Hidden mechanical issues, structural damage, or aging parts can quickly turn a bargain into an expensive project.
Before purchasing or accepting a free piano, consider having it professionally inspected. A small inspection fee can save you thousands in repair, moving, and disposal costs later on.
If you're considering bringing a piano home, contact us for a pre-purchase inspection and make an informed decision before you commit.
Because when it comes to pianos, free lunches are hard to find.
