How much does it cost to have my piano tuned?


My regular price for tuning is $115.  Prices for other repairs,
maintenance, and adjustments can be quoted when I see the instrument.



How often should I have my piano tuned?

Generally, in home use, your piano should be tuned at least twice per
year.



One of the keys on my piano sticks.  What is wrong with it?

A "sticky" key can be caused by several issues.  A broken part, a needed
simple adjustment, something fell inside the piano - all common
occurrences.  Sometimes more serious attention is needed.  I can quote
repair prices when I see the instrument.




What happens if a string breaks?

Strings break for various reasons.  Piano Technicians do not break
strings.  Often strings break from the wear of multiple tunings over many
years.  Sometimes they break because they are rusty from humid
conditions.  Broken strings can sometimes be repaired by splicing.  A
spliced string can last many years.  If a string cannot be spliced, it
must be replaced.  Prices vary but I can quote the price when I see the
instrument.
