Question 1

Q: What is the cost of piano tuning?

Accepted Answer

$150 – Special rate for returning clients I’ve tuned within the past year.
$200 – For first-time tunings, if the piano has been regularly maintained.

$250 – For pianos that haven’t been tuned in a long time or are noticeably out of tune.
If you’d like to include minor repairs or adjustments during the tuning, you can select those options when booking.

Question 2

Q: How often should I tune my piano?

Accepted Answer

A: Tune your piano at least once or twice per year to maintain optimal performance. Environmental changes can affect tuning stability. Regular tuning retains sound quality and extends lifespan. Schedule your tuning with us to keep it in top condition.

Question 4

Q: Do you offer pre-purchase inspections?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I do. A pre-purchase inspection gives you peace of mind when buying a piano, helping you know whether it’s worth the asking price or if it needs major repairs. Just select Pre-Purchase Inspection when booking online.

I’ve often been called to tune pianos that people picked up cheaply, only to find they can’t be properly tuned or have serious issues that aren’t worth repairing.
