Introduction: I’m a dedicated tuner/technician with years of experience in private homes, concert halls, and recording studios. I initially apprenticed under one of California’s top technicians, taught piano technology at the Apollo School of Music & Arts, and had the privilege of working and learning from some of the finest piano rebuilders in the San Francisco area before taking my skill set out east. It will be my pleasure to free your family piano of sticky keys, squeaks and buzzes, or make your professional-grade piano produce angelic tones from a blisteringly fast piano action. A little about me: My name is Levi. I have an engineering degree with a background in circuit design, manufacturing, and hand assembly of guitar effects pedals. I love music. Like a lot. I play the bass, piano and a smattering of other instruments. I’ve toured the country in bands, composed for the likes of PBS, had a short stint as a jingle writer and am a regular foley artist for various video games. In my spare time I create educational content for my Tiktok audience of over 100,000 regular viewers. Centered around tuning theory, acoustic science and AI generated music. The goal for my videos is to find new crossroads between the disciplines of math, science and music, and inspire a new approach to how we think about music. Services include • Tuning/Pitch Raising • Key repairs • Pedals adjustments and repairs • and much much more!

While I was still trying to figure out the Thumbtack App and after I had written an explanation of my situation of need to have my piano tuned, Levi (representing Hammer & Key Piano Tuning) jumped right in, came immediately to my rescue and sent me a text offering me an opening on his schedule, six days away. Levi is a delightfully pleasant young man who--by his words and deeds--quickly convinced me that he knew EVERYTING about what he needed to do to get my job done. While another piano tuner had said I might need two appointments, depending on the time lapse since my last tuning, Levi took care to communicate the prospective situation and, thankfully, was able to extend the time of his first visit to accommodate my needs. I am 100% pleased with Hammer & Key Piano Tuning: Levi's knowledge, experience and work to completion of my piano tuning "project."

I just picked up an old spinet piano which needed tuning and some repairs. Levi explained everything he was doing, spent considerable time working on the piano and it now sounds great. I will definitely have him come back.

Levi was amazing! He replied immediately, took time to understand my needs and the situation (free second hand piano that I couldn’t afford to deeply invest in, but wanted to improve as much as I could quickly… and a very anxious dog who would not take well to visitors.) he was super punctual, updated me to ensure I knew when his ETA, and spent extra time helping fix everything he could in one visit, even laughable bits like the badly bent brackets and a photo found stuck inside the piano. I cannot recommend him enough and am so very grateful for his help!
