About
Pianos need more than "just a tuning" to sound good. I help pianos sound richer, play smoother, and inspire musicians to play more.
With 30+ years of experience, advanced factory training from Steinway & Sons, Yamaha and Shigeru Kawai, and as a long-time Registered Piano Technician (RPT), I provide the level of care trusted by top teachers, schools, universities, and recording artists throughout the Olympia area.
I don't just tune—I carefully refine your piano's touch and tone, giving every instrument the same honest, meticulous attention, whether it's a concert grand or a family upright. No unnecessary upselling—just exceptional results.

I'm a professional pianist and trust Ryan completely. He is a phenomenal tuner, technician and piano mover. He's moved a few of my pianos - no small feat! It's magical to watch him work. He also has an expert ear in terms of tuning and voicing. One of his specialities is making spinet and upright pianos truly sing - it takes a truly gifted technician to know how to bring out the best in those instruments. He's always happy to answer questions and scheduling with him is very easy - Jean, who handles the administrative side of Ryan's business is responsive and kind. I highly recommend Ryan for all things piano!

Thank you so much, Azadi. Coming from a professional pianist, your words mean a great deal. I'm grateful for the trust you've placed in me with your instruments, from moving them safely to tuning, voicing, and helping each piano sound its best.
I especially appreciate what you said about spinets and uprights. I've always believed that humble home pianos can have real musical character when cared for thoughtfully. Jean and I both appreciate your kind words about the scheduling side as well. Thank you for such a generous recommendation.

Such an easy process to get scheduled for our piano tuning. Ryan was so knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions I had about the process. He even was able to tell me a few historical things about my piano that I didnt know. The whole process was smooth and handled with care and integrity.

Thank you so much, Crystal. I'm glad scheduling your piano tuning was easy and that the process felt smooth and carefully handled. I always enjoy answering questions and helping people learn more about their piano's history and character.
Thank you also for the important work you do in the Olympia music community. I'm grateful for your trust in Pianova Piano Service.

Ryan is diligent, considerate, and kind. He takes his time and tells you everything you'd ever want to know about your piano. My son was thrilled with how his instrument sounded after Ryan's tuning service. Jean is very responsive and kind, and very helpful over text message with questions, scheduling, and general info about their services. If you need piano service of any kind, I highly recommend Pianova.

Thank you so much, Audrey. I'm so glad your son could hear the difference after the tuning and voicing work. I'm also glad he stuck around and learned about the process. Working with thoughtful, talented students like him is one of the real pleasures of my job. Jean and I really appreciate your note about communication and scheduling. I'm glad to help keep his piano inspiring to play. Thanks again for the recommendation.

Thank you so much, Jan! I'm especially grateful for your kind words because you've spent so many years encouraging piano students, teachers, and home music making in our community.
