A piano rolling on its original metal casters can cause severe, permanent damage to hardwood floors. Those small wheels concentrate hundreds of pounds of pressure onto a tiny surface area, instantly denting or deeply scratching the wood. At Piano Movers Toronto, we never roll a piano on its own casters across unprotected floors. Instead, we use specialized rubber-wheeled piano dollies designed specifically to distribute weight safely. For highly delicate floors, we lay down neoprene floor runners or Masonite boards to create a protective track from the piano's location to the front door. By hiring professionals, you save yourself the immense cost and heartache of repairing ruined hardwood floors.
