Tuning
Brings your piano back to pitch, restores its tone and clarity, and keeps it sounding its best through every season.
Professional piano tuning and repair in El Dorado Hills and across El Dorado County. I come to you — homes, schools, churches and performance venues — and care for uprights and grands alike.
In the foothills, hot dry summers give way to cold winters, and wood stoves or forced-air heating dry indoor air dramatically. Those seasonal swings move the soundboard and the tuning pins. A room humidifier in winter, and a piano placed on an inside wall away from the stove, make a real difference to how long a tuning holds.
Expert care for a better sounding, longer lasting piano.
Brings your piano back to pitch, restores its tone and clarity, and keeps it sounding its best through every season.
For pianos left untuned for years: brings the whole instrument safely back up to concert pitch, A440, so it can hold a fine tuning again.
From sticky keys and broken strings to worn action parts, I diagnose and fix the problem properly.
Fine adjustment of the action for an even, responsive touch across the whole keyboard.
Simple, professional and stress-free.

I come to you and tune, regulate or repair your piano with care and attention to detail.
A beautifully sounding, responsive piano — ready for years of music.
For most pianos in El Dorado Hills: twice a year, ideally once the heating season settles in. The local climate — warm summers, cold nights and heated winters — is what moves a piano out of tune here, so timing visits around the seasons keeps it sounding its best for longer.
Yes. I travel down the valley to Sacramento and the surrounding foothills; send me your town and I'll confirm the next available visit.
I check the piano's condition, tune it to standard pitch (with a pitch raise first if it has drifted a long way), and make small adjustments to the action if keys feel uneven or sticky. You'll get honest advice on anything that needs more work.
