Services

  • Provide a maintenance program to keep pianos at optimal condition (This includes cleaning, thorough examinations annually, and changing humidifier pads.)
  • Provide touchweight design metrology, which is custom designing piano actions for personal preference including optimal even touch and tone throughout the keyboard (Specialty work is performed on higher end pianos.)
  • Troubleshoot problems on all varieties of pianos
  • Tune, repair, rebuild, give estimates and install Piano Life Saver Systems

How the Piano Life Saver benefits you and your piano:

  • Permits the tuning to hold better between regular tunings;
  • Minimizes the expansion and contraction of action parts which improves touch and keyboard control;
  • Minimizes glue failure;
  • Minimizes rust on strings and metal parts;
  • Minimizes felt deterioration, reducing the harsh tones that come from flattened hammer felt in low humidity or the muffled tones from swollen hammer felt in high humidity;
  • Protects the piano's investment value year after year;
