My piano has not been tuned for a long time, will a standard tune be enough?

Generally not. The first tuning will put the octaves back in line and improve it greatly, but this tuning will settle and need one or two more tunings to stabilize the pitch. (In seven years the piano has missed approximately fourteen tunings.)

What is Concert Pitch?

Concert pitch is a reference point (A440) that every instrument around the world is tuned to. This means that if one instrument is played alongside another instrument, they should all sound in tune with each other.

What is a Pitch Raise?

A pitch raise is the tuning process used to dramatically stretch the pitch of a piano when it’s notably “flat”. A piano that’s more than a quarter of a semi-tone (25cents) flat is usually considered to be too flat to achieve tuning stability with a single tune. In this situation we provide the service to bring the piano up to “concert pitch” with a pitch raise which would cost an extra $70 on top of the standard piano tuning fee.

 

Should I move my piano away from the wall before the piano tuner arrives?

No, this is old school and is only required for tuners who are struggling to hear the piano clearly. 

How long does it take to tune a piano?

A standard piano tune normally takes an hour to an hour and a half.

I still have questions!
