Tuning

The most common calls we get are for tuning pianos. Many people do not realize just how quickly even a high quality piano can go out of tune.

Ideally your piano should be tuned twice a year. With regular tunings at six-month intervals you probably won't even notice your piano sounding bad. But to a trained ear it is beginning to drift out of tune. The most obvious benefit to twice a year tunings is you never have to endure the sound of an out of tune piano. Additionally keeping the piano this close to pitch will prevent needing to raise the pitch back to A440. Raising the pitch is more expensive  and causes unnecessary wear and tear to the piano. In short regular tunings will extend the life of your piano.

At very minimum your piano should be tuned once a year.

During the service call to tune your piano we will also inspect your piano and make necessary adjustments or repairs to prevent future problems. We also tighten your bench bolts and pinblock screws and clean your key surfaces.
