Default Friend's uncle's twisted Steinway grand

Not much more to describe. *The tuner guy my friend's uncle uses says he lasered the soundboard and it is actually twisted about 1.5" out of square!

Now that soundbard is a massive piece of wood & steel and no one seems to how it coulda got bent that way.

My question is, is it worth getting repaired? *Because the tuner says he may have to charge my buddy's uncle twice the normal fee to get just a "satisfactory" sound, let alone a good or excellent sound.

My friend is a very good player and wants to go regional/national someday, and playing on that Steinway is a real joy for him.
