FAQs

How often should I get my piano tuned?

Twice a year is a good number for most pianos. It greatly depends on how much the piano is played, as well as environmental factors like consistency of humidity and temperature. If the piano is getting played multiple hours every day, or if is used to make a recording, you may want to have the piano tuned three or four times a year.

If you would like to read more about general care and maintenance for your instrument, the Piano Technicians Guild website is a wonderful resource.
