Full Service Packages

Is your piano living up to its full potential? Over the years, piano parts and the action mechanism become worn and misaligned, creating an unevenness and lack of control for the player. The sound and tone of the piano suffers as well. We can work with you to maximize your piano’s sound and performance on a deeper level through our service packages. 

These packages are designed to address issues associated with your piano through the fine work of action regulation.  Regulation is the work of spacing, aligning, and recalibration of the piano’s action parts.  Over time the action parts will fall out of alignment making the piano more difficult to play.  These packages are designed to address this issue therefore giving the player more enjoyment with a piano that plays so much better.  

Tuning Just like your car, your piano is going to sound its best if it is regularly tuned. Because pianos are made mostly from wooden parts, the weather in the Pacific Northwest area has a significant impact on how quickly your piano goes out of tune. Regular tuning will provide more stability in the sound of your piano and increase its value. Our Portland and Seattle based piano tuners are an important investment in your prized instrument.   Preliminary Cleaning Pianos are beautiful instruments but they collect a lot of dust and dirt over time. Properly cleaning your piano in part involves pulling on the strings, so it is important to have our piano tuners clean your piano at the same time your piano is tuned.   Regulation of Pedals Our expert piano tuners will adjust your piano’s “action” – the inside mechanical parts of your piano, as well as your piano’s pedals. This is necessary to address the effects of use and changes in wood and wool that are caused by the weather in the Portland and Seattle areas. Regulating your piano’s action and pedals is a critical step in properly tuning your piano.   Minor Repairs Many repairs can be made in your home during the piano tuning process.  Repairs that can be made with no additional service call (such as sticking keys or squeaky pedals) are included in our piano tuning service in both our locations in Portland and Seattle/Bellevue. Ask your technician for more details.   Assessment of Your Piano’s Condition Sometimes your piano needs more than just a minor repair. Our expert piano technicians can assess your piano’s condition from pedals to keys. We will provide you with important information and no-pressure estimates to make your Portland and Seattle area piano look and sound like new! COST: $195
