Our Services
Regular tuning is vital to your piano's health and longevity. It's recommended that pianos are tuned at least every six to twelve months to maintain optimal condition. Our tuning technique is centered around equal temperament with pure octaves and cleanest possible unisons, providing clear, open chords and distinct melodies, with minimal interference. A regular tuning will typically take around two hours.
Also known as a 'pitch raise'. Pianos older than fifty years, and pianos that have not been tuned within the last three years may require extra time and attention. A follow-up standard tuning should be performed within the following six months. From that point, a regular tuning schedule of 6-12 months should be sufficient to maintain a healthy and stable piano.
If you're feeling like your piano is sounding harsher than you'd like, or the volume is louder in certain places than in others, a carefully executed hammer voicing will help to rectify this. It's necessary that a tuning is performed immediately before voicing. The process typically adds an extra hour to your tuning appointment. Your technician will be able to help you assess if voicing is right for your piano.
We are able to diagnose and remedy a variety of mechanical issues including:
Stiff keys
'Bouncing' or double-striking hammers
