Our Services
At Hammerhead Piano Tuning and Repair, we want to provide you with the best value for the money you invest in maintaining your instrument. We work with you to determine what kind of work makes sense for your piano and your budget.
If you are not sure what needs doing, we can give free advice over the phone or email, or conduct an in-person assessment of the piano for a call-out fee of £40.
A surcharge may be added to the bill for customers located more than 45 minutes away by car.
Tuning and Minor Repairs
From £80
Tuning the piano to concert pitch. Ideally this should be done every six months, with discounts offered for frequent tunings or multiple pianos.
Pianos that are too far below concert pitch may require a pitch raise and a subsequent fine tuning in order for them to remain stable.
Servicing/Regulation
Full day from £500
The full day service can include, but is not limited to: cleaning, replacing worn felts, fixing sticking notes, refacing hammers, voicing and regulation, tightening loose tuning pins.
Materials are included where possible, unless the work involves replacing an entire set of a particular part.
Any of these repairs can be booked individually and charged pro rata.
Cleaning
From £80
If all your piano needs is a thorough cleaning, we can get to those hard to reach nooks and crannies without damaging the delicate action parts or hoovering up the felt washers. We also look for signs of moth damage, to which pianos are especially vulnerable.
