tuning  & schedule

Piano tuning is the act of adjusting the tension of the strings of an acoustic piano so that the musical intervals between strings are in tune. In the context of piano tuning, the meaning of the term ‘in tune’ is not simply a particular fixed set of pitches.

care & maintenance

Piano care and maintenance are necessary to protect the outside and keep the inside mechanisms in working order. Attention is given to the wood and the finish, which helps to keep the piano looking and playing for years.

refurbishing & repair

Reconditioning a piano after damage occurs or if an older piano has not been played for years is cleaning, adjusting, repairing, and replacing parts when necessary. Repairing a piano focuses on the parts of the piano that are damaged or not in working order for the best or desired performance.

appraisal

A piano appraisal is a legal document drawn up by Stephen Thomas, an expert in the field that assigns value to a piano, often for insurance protection or estate settlements. An appraiser is held legally liable in tax fraud cases since an appraisal is a legal document.
