Most Common service package

If this is our first appointment with your piano this is likely the option you want. Every time I go through a piano for the first time I: clean out the instrument, create a report of the condition and needs of the instrument and it’s many parts, set and balance the tension (pitch) across the board, set the temperament, tune and stabilize the tuning, repair and adjust any small regulation related things that I notice not requiring parts inventory, tighten the bench and then play and listen to the piano to make further recomendations. Recurring visits receive basically a very similar level of focus and time, only more of that time gets to be spent on the instrument because the initial report and instrument profile have already been created.

Overcoming years of neglect Package

If either you bought a piano brand new 20 or 30 years ago and never had even the warranty tuning done or you just inherited great grandma’s antique 100 yr upright that hasnt been tuned in decades and you would like to bring it back to life you find yourselves being in the same category as both having instruments that have been neglected, but can be brought back into an enjoyable state of playability. Whether it is addional time spent bringing the instrument to the proper tension and stabilizing it there, deep cleaning, reconditiong of action parts on a first pass basis, for reconditioning and improving of action basis, or maybe there is a unique anomoly pasrticular to your piano. In any case your appointment will take longer than the average appointment. And that’s okay. The piano was probably built with some of the highest standards of workmanship in building and consequently can usually be brought back to useable musical instruments with a little extra patience and effort. I want to bring your piano back to life, and this is where we begin!
