Mitchinson piano tuning & services

Services

Tuning

There are over 200 strings on any given piano, and each needs to be carefully tuned. Tuning establishes the piano at its proper pitch (where the A above middle C is typically set at 440 Hz). The result? An instrument with a strong and pure tone capable of creating beautiful music.

Repairs and Regulation

A piano with squeaks, buzzes, sticking keys or uneven touch is not an instrument that you will want to play. It’s difficult to listen to (or learn on) an instrument that isn’t performing well. We’ll make repairs and adjustments to have your piano perform at its peak, allowing you the control you need to play the music you love.

Humidity control

Canadian winters are hard on Canadian pianos. Fluctuations in humidity destabilize tunings and risk the durability of your instrument. Protect your investment with a humidity control system, and have it installed by a certified Piano Life Saver System installer.
