Piano tuning is the process of adjusting the tension of the piano's strings to ensure each note plays the correct pitch, usually standard A440. Piano repair, on the other hand, involves fixing physical or mechanical issues within the instrument, such as repairing broken strings, sluggish keys, or a damaged soundboard.

For most pianos, it is recommended to schedule a tuning every six months to a year to maintain the instrument's sound quality and longevity. However, professional musicians or concert venues may require more frequent tunings to handle the demands of heavy use.

Stretch tuning is a specialized technique that involves meticulously adjusting the pitch of the lower and higher notes so they blend harmoniously across the keyboard. We use this method because it brings out a richer, more vibrant sound and unique musical character, especially in antique and player pianos.

Yes, we can turn your ordinary piano into a player piano by installing the Certified QRS PNOmation system. This state-of-the-art system allows your piano to play itself using a digital library of songs, all controlled directly from your smartphone via WiFi.

Sticky keys are most commonly caused by changes in humidity, which force the piano's wooden components to expand or shrink. Other culprits include dust and dirt buildup or aging materials. Our technicians can fix this by diagnosing the exact cause, thoroughly cleaning the keys, applying dry lubricant, and making fine adjustments to restore a smooth touch.

While tuning focuses strictly on adjusting the pitch of the strings, regulation involves adjusting the mechanical components of the piano (known as the "action"). Regulation ensures consistent touch, responsiveness, and tone by leveling the keys, adjusting the hammers and dampers, and aligning the pedals.

Yes, we specialize in servicing and restoring antique pneumatic player pianos. We routinely handle common problems specific to these vintage instruments, such as repairing air leaks, fixing deteriorating bellows, replacing malfunctioning valves, and addressing damaged piano rolls.
