OUR SERVICES

Piano Tuning

Pianos are designed to sound their best when tuned to A-440 (A above middle C vibrates at 440 cycles per second), the universal pitch standard. At A-440 pitch, power and tonal range are optimum and your piano will match the pitch of other instruments. By always maintaining your piano, you create long-term tuning stability because the strings and structure stay in equilibrium. You also ensure proper ear training because you always hear your music in the correct key.

Pitch Raises

If your piano has gone without tuning for an extended period or it has moved since it was last tuned, its pitch may have dropped far below A-440. This means that each of its approximately 220 strings needs to be tightened considerably, adding tremendous additional tension to the piano’s structure. The problem is that as each string is tightened, the additional load causes the pitch of the previously adjusted strings to change. Thus it is impossible to make a substantial change in pitch in just one step. Instead, a process called “pitch raising” must first be done, in which all strings are raised to their correct average tension levels. Only then can the piano be tuned.

Piano Cleaning

Cleaning your piano twice a year insures good health for your piano and your home. We take great care as we thoroughly clean all parts of your piano including the action, soundboard, bridge, hammers and underneath your keys. Health problems are known to be caused due to the dust and other contaminants found in a dirty piano. Some of the most common are, dust mites, mold, pet dander, mice and moths.

Piano Repair

Does your piano have keys that are sticking? Do the pedals not seem to be functioning properly? Are you hearing strange noises when you play? Whatever the problem, we can repair it.
