Routine Tuning
The swings in humidity from the change of seasons are the largest contributing factor to a piano falling out of tune, in addition to heavy playing and moving. Manufacturers recommend tuning a piano 2 to 4 times annually, and I provide a standard rate for a piano that is routinely tuned.
This service visit will leave your piano sounding brilliant and fresh, and I will clean the exterior and keys to remove any dust or grime. Any recurring issues can be addressed in this appointment also and recommendations will be made for future improvements. Reminders will be sent to you for routine tunings. The more you keep up with tuning your piano the better it will sound on a consistent basis!
Routine Tuning Rate: $250
First Appointment
Typically a piano that hasn't been serviced for several years will need a "pitch-raise". This is a procedure where the overall tension of the strings is at first roughly raised and then a normal precise tuning is performed. It takes slightly longer than a standard piano tuning.
Also, many pianos that have been out of service for several years have typical small issues such as a few sticking keys or bobbing hammers. Before I tune, I'll diagnose any mechanical issues and fix those that can be easily addressed, and additionally I will clean the piano.
This will appointment will last approximately three hours.
First Appointment Rate: $375
