Hanover Piano Tuner And More

Hanover is not the only area where I’ll be happy to go to tune your piano. I also go service pianos in Ashland, Eastern Hanover, all along Route 360 to Tappahannock, including Aylett and Central Garage! Yes! Central Garage!

You probably don’t know this, but some of my family members recently moved into that area, so if you need your piano tuned in Central Garage or nearby, it will give me an excuse to visit. Even better, pianos there are no longer so out of the way for me, which will make scheduling easier.

And if you live in Aylett or Central Garage or even close by, send me a text and let me know. Then I can let YOU know when I’ll be in the area. My number is 804-677-2416.

Why Get Your Piano Tuned in the Fall?

In case you’re wondering why fall is such a great time to get your piano taken care of… The temperature around Virginia stays quite stable during that time, which means your piano will hold its tuning so much better. Even if you play spooky tunes for Halloween.

And that stability will even help it keep its tuning well into winter, especially if you make sure to protect your piano from wild temperature swings. Obviously, this means keeping drafts away and keeping the piano away from heating vents.

And now that you can have guests again, you can entertain your family and friends with your favorite holiday music. You can host sing-alongs and invite them to accompany you on their violin, their recorder, or their guitar throughout the season.

So Get in touch, whether you live in Ashland, Hanover, Central Garage, or Aylett. Your Hanover piano tuner is never far away. Of course, I’ll also continue to be the Richmond piano tuner. And as always, you can reach me at 804-677-24116. Text me (preferred) or call me to get in touch!

Piano Tuning Richmond VA in Fall

piano tuning richmond va in fallHave you noticed the weather lately? It’s the perfect time for piano tuning Richmond VA. I’m sure you’ve noticed that it’s time to bring out the jackets and the sweaters, even though it’s not really COLD yet.

This means that in fall (or autumn, if you prefer), the weather is perfect to get the best results from your having your piano tuned.

Why the best results? Because the weather, along with the temperature and the humidity is comparatively stable, which means that your piano will stay tuned for quite a while.

The perfect time for Piano Tuning Richmond VA

Richmond has seasons, and so it can get quite cold during the winter. And when the heating system comes on, the air indoors can become quite dry, unless you’re putting some effort into setting up humidifiers.

And of course we all remember what the summer was like. Hot and humid. And humidity can expand the wooden parts in your piano and make the piano go out of tune.

But when the piano has some time to hold its tune, it will stay well-tuned for a little longer, so the best time to have it tuned is in fall — and in spring! But now it’s fall…

Perfect pitch for the holiday season

And there’s another reason to make sure your piano has perfect pitch: the upcoming holiday season! Don’t you want your piano to be in good shape for social events at your home? Someone might want to sit down and show off his or her skills. Maybe even a member of your family!

Whether you’re in the mood for some spooky tunes for Halloween, or something festive for Thanksgiving and the entire Christmas season, a well-tuned piano will increase your enjoyment greatly.

Piano Tuning, Richmond, VA, prepares your piano for holiday fun

So consider Piano Tuning. Richmond, VA, offers the perfect weather to help you get the most of your investment. Of course you’re not the only one who knows that! Others are making their appointments too, and I’ve been pretty busy as it is.

Piano Tuning Cost & Piano Moving Cost: Your Questions Answered

piano tuning costAre you wondering how much it costs to tune a piano – or to move a piano? I am often asked why I don’t put prices on my website. In this post, I’m going to answer some questions about Piano Tuning Cost & Piano Moving Cost.

Imagine you asked a car mechanic how much it would cost to repair a car. It made strange noises and you were shopping for the best rate from several car repair places. I bet the first question you’d get is what kind of car you have, and then they would tell you that they would have to take a look before they could give you an estimate.

After all, it would make a huge difference in price whether you had a Toyota or a BMW, a Volkswagen or a Mercedes. And that’s not the end of it. They need to know which model it is, i.e., whether your Toyota is a Corolla, a Camry, a Prius, or a Highlander.

And so it is with pianos…
