We Tune Pianos

Basic Services
Standard Tuning
1h 30m — $207.85 — Standard Tuning is perfect for pianos that have been serviced within the last year or so. If your piano has not been tuned in a while, select Tune along with Extreme Pitch Correct which allows more time to straighten out the pitches and helps the piano adjust to the new tension.
Extreme Pitch Correction
2h 15m — $275.29 — This is for pianos that have not been tuned to pitch for a while or pianos that have been moved. Instead of a single tuning pass, multiple passes are made so the pitch gets a stabilized. Usually after this, a piano returns to its normal scheduling.
Mini Piano Spa
4h — $450.00 — Tune and fix as many items as possible in a morning or afternoon session. This is a good option for pianos that haven't had a lot of maintenance for about 5 years. Allow a full morning or full afternoon for some TLC on your piano.
Full Piano Spa
6h — $995.00 — This is a full Spa treatment for your piano. Select this for pianos that have not had as much TLC as needed for about 10 years or more. Many parts (wood and felt) have changed dimensions over the years and need to be replaced (felt) or adjusted. This will be an all-day in-home session and your piano will benefit immensely from the improved touch and sound.
Consultation
1h 30m — $165.00 — Your piano will be inspected for all repairs and general condition. This is useful when buying a piano or wanting a list of repairs for your existing piano.
Inspect with Written Report
1h 30m — $175.00 — If you are thinking of buying a piano or need an inspection for insurance claims and you want a detailed inspection with a written report, select this option.
Cleaning
None
General Cleaning Along With Tuning
45m — $85.00 — The Cleaning Package is good for a general cleaning of your piano. This includes cleaning under the strings (grand pianos), polishing the case, and polishing the keys using special product designed for such cleaning.
Deep Cleaning (remove action)
1h 30m — $165.00 — Deep Cleaning is more comprehensive than General Cleaning. It is recommended for a client who hasn't had their piano professionally cleaned in a while...a great value for the discerning musician. It includes everything in General Cleaning, but more time is spent on finer details i.e. underneath the keys. It's similar to the difference between a carwash and a detailing service. You may also need this package if your piano has dirt caked on the soundboard making the wood impossible to see.
Repairs With Tuning
Key(s) Are Sticking or won't play
30m — $35.00 — Sticking keys are annoying. They absolutely must be free in order to play. The price and time involved for this varies by the amount of keys that need attention and the difficulty of getting to the problem (grand pianos are more difficult). Grand pianos may be $45 because key problems are more difficult to access.
Pedals Don't Work
10m — $25.00 — Pedals are generally inexpensive to restore function ($10- $25). Grand pedals can be more involved ($60-$95) because they function within their own sealed box that can only be opened from the underside (the whole assembly needs to be removed).
Replace String
1h — $95.00 — Missing strings cause problems. Not only does it make the piano sound awful, it aggravates nearby parts and creates repairs that would otherwise be unnecessary.
GRAND PIANO Regulation (adjusting touch)
None
Basic Grand Regulation
6h — $450.00 — Done in-home, this regulation involves micro-adjustments of hundreds of different parameters to give the piano an optimal touch. This may include tightening 400 screws, reshaping hammers, adjusting the distance the keys are depressed, etc.
Intermediate Grand Regulation
13h — $975.00 — This includes all of the basic regulation, but the action is taken to a special shop bench for further refinement, then returned and refit into the piano.
Enhanced Intermediate Grand Regulation
19h — $1,295.00 — This is a category between Intermediate and Highest Level regulations. It’s perfect for high quality pianos able to respond to fine adjustments but not needing many repairs.
Highest Level Grand Regulation
25h — $2,250.00 — This is the highest level of refinement which includes all of the Intermediate steps and may include computer controlled leveling of the keys. Key up/down weight (in grams) is measured for friction and 37 steps of refinement are followed as closely as possible. New felt is added underneath the keys when necessary.
UPRIGHT PIANO Regulation (adjusting touch)
None
Basic Upright Regulation to "make it play better"
2h — $275.00 — Some pianos need to be tweaked to make playing easier and more enjoyable.
