We service every brand. When a piano needs deeper work, we can follow the problem from tuning pins and strings through the action, soundboard, cabinet, climate, and move.
We set the tuning pins firmly in the pinblock for a stable, long-lasting result, then listen across the full instrument for a musical temperament.
Regulation and voicing bring the action response and tonal balance back under your control.
We diagnose mechanical trouble and explain what the piano needs before work begins.
New soundboards, pinblocks, bridges, actions, strings, dampers, and even duplicated original keysets can return a worthy instrument to its full potential.
Closed-pore finishes restore the cabinet with the depth and feel used on fine pianos a century ago.
In-piano humidifying and dehumidifying helps protect tuning stability and wood parts through Colorado's dry seasons.
Our technician trained at the Bösendorfer factory in Vienna and specializes in Steinway and Bösendorfer, but we enjoy working on pianos of every brand and age.
That experience includes 12 years as a university technician, more than 35 years in the trade, and concert technician work for the Boulder Bach Festival and Boulder Chamber Orchestra.
Moving, remodeling, or traveling can leave an instrument between places. We provide climate-controlled storage and can arrange the move from your home to the facility.
$75-$95 per month depending on the piano's size and value.
