BC PIANOCRAFT LTD PIANO TUNING & REPAIRS SINCE 1972
Types of Piano Tuning Available
Each piano tuning from BC Pianocraft includes a full inspection of your piano and its playing capabilities. We use a combination of computer tuning programs and our own ear to ensure both accurate tunings and a warm smooth tone. A piano tuning can take from 2-3 hours because we need to make several passes of all the strings to ensure a quality tuning. We will also vacuum all the dust from your piano and do any spot repairs on it.
If, through our examination of your piano, we discover areas that need to be repaired, we will discuss all aspects of the repair job with you. A general description of available repair work and prices is given in the repairs section.
Various levels of piano tuning are available:
- Home Enjoyment
