All About Piano Maintenance & Tuning

I just pay my tuner by the visit. I’ve never noticed how long he takes. When he’s done, he plays some nice pieces for us to enjoy too!

I’m looking for a piano tuner too because the current one (also the seller) is very arrogant and all my kids don’t like him. Can leave the contact here or pm me please?

We use Patrick from Century Piano. He is the owner. Bought our piano from him many years ago and he is still tuning for us. I think it's $60. Maybe half yearly.
You can try to contact 6339 2376. -

Hi schen,
It's good to know that you have a piano. It's a wonderful instrument! Good pianists will only play well after a thorough understanding about its instruments. Please learn more about yours carefully before you get a technician. Check its history, try to discover it's weakness and let a good pianist have a sonata or two from it.
You could try calling specialist from the web or get a referral from owners here. Just make sure they have the credentials. Fees vary from about 100 onwards. Tunning should done twice a year if played often. Hope you have fun with it as I had with mine. :boogie: -

Hi. Does anyone know of any good piano technician who is capable of doing Piano Voicing on Japanese upright piano ?
Thank you -
Hi Nickw,
I watched a piano technician from Emmanuel & Sons voice a Grand Piano recently at someone’s home. From what little I understand, any piano technician who can work on grand pianos can do the same with uprights (they all start basic tech training on uprights and then do advanced training on grands). Maybe you can check with Emmanuel & Sons?
