Tuning service
Whether the piano needs routine maintenance or has been left too long between visits, the goal is the same: bring the instrument back to a reliable, musical pitch without rushing the process.
Standard tuning appointments are ideal for pianos that have been maintained within the usual 6–12 month window and need a careful reset of pitch and balance.
If a piano has been left too long between tunings, an extra pitch correction may be needed first so the final tuning can hold more reliably.
You get practical guidance on how often to tune, what humidity changes are doing to the instrument, and when to book again for more stable long-term results.
Tuning questions
For most pianos, twice a year is ideal. Regular tuning helps the instrument stay more stable and reduces the need for heavier correction later.

A pitch raise may be needed before the fine tuning. That is common for pianos that have gone well past the usual service interval.
Usually yes. It is best to let the piano settle into the new environment first, then tune it once temperature and humidity conditions are more stable.
Yes. Upright and grand pianos are both serviced, with the tuning approach adjusted to suit the instrument and its current condition.
Minor issues can often be identified on the visit, and if repair work is needed it can be discussed clearly before any extra work is carried out.
