FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My fees start at $200.00 for a complete tuning. It could be slightly higher depending on distance and difficulty in accessing the venue. (For example downtown, high-rises, etc.) I charge for parking at cost if I need to pay for parking when visiting an apartment. Also, repairs are not included in this charge -- those would be determined based on the problem and what it takes to fix.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to discuss the piano that needs to be tuned and/or repaired. Is it an upright, spinet, or grand piano? When was it tuned last and are there any problems in the piano's performance (i.e. stuck or broken keys, etc.)?
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a conservatory degree in piano and have served as an apprentice. with a Master Piano Technician in my early years of training.
