Tuning with a musician's touch

Too often are skillfully crafted pianos left to deteriorate in both monetary and musical value. Maintaining one's piano is crucial to prevent a musical instrument turning into a mere piece of decorative furnature. Trained under Registered Piano Technician with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, Peter Stumpf, Guy Russo tunes, voices, repairs, and regulates pianos of all varieties. Call or email today to schedule a service visit.



Pricing

A standard visit lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours, includes a tuning as well as some minor voicing and repairs. The service rate for a standard visit is $120. Depending on the needs of the piano and the desires of the customer, extended visits and return visits are often necessary and are priced on a case-by-case basis.
