This is my experience, too. The one exception was years ago when I was 
experimenting with brushing strike points with a wire brush. I didn't 
consult with the owner beforehand nor mention it afterward (she wasn't 
at home), but I sure got an earful that evening about how I had ruined 
the tone quality of her harsh-sounding, unevenly-voiced Yamaha P2 
(obviously not her opinion). I didn't bother telling her that it would 
brighten back up in short order, but I never heard from her again. Just 
as well, IMO.

But lesson learned: always discuss the condition of the piano, suggest 
possible improvements and come to an agreement before doing any work.
