Preparing for Tuning

A semi-quiet environment helps create an optimal tuning experience. You might also want to remove anything (non-piano related) from the piano as Randy will be removing parts of the cabinetry.

What I’ll Need

I just need 10 minutes to run a quick but thorough inspection to then go over options with you. 99% of the time, inspections are free & only charged if the primary reason for the visit is the inspection. First-time visits are usually anywhere from 1 hr to 2.5 hours.

If you’ve not tuned in years, your piano might need a little lovin’.

Pitch Raising - multiple discounted tunings returns & stabilizes the strings back to pitch after years of missed tunings (very important)

Cleaning - interior & exterior vacuuming/soaping helps keep the parts working (very important)

Key & Tone Adjustments - how easily and evenly the keys play with controlled dynamics is called “regulation”.
