Full Upright Piano Regulation

Service Description

Signs that your piano may need regulation include uneven keys, difficulty playing quietly, lack of power, poor repetition, and chronic fatigue when playing. Typically, a piano should be regulated every 5-10 years, or more frequently in professional settings. If left unaddressed, significant regulation issues can lead to further damage; for example, severely worn hammers--besides sounding too loud and bright--can break strings and exacerbate existing problems. Our Full Piano Regulation service is designed to make your piano feel exactly how you want it. This comprehensive service can take up to two days and involves a meticulous process: inspecting and measuring your piano, taking the action to our shop for over 30 adjustment steps, profiling hammers if needed, lubricating parts with top-quality products, and then returning the action to your piano for final adjustments. Though it may sound extensive, the results are worth it! This service is not just for concert pianists—think of it like a full tune-up for your bicycle. Just as a bike feels brand new after a proper tune-up, your piano can feel rejuvenated and more enjoyable to play. Regulation is the detailed, precise work that brings your piano back to its optimal condition, giving you a new-old piano experience at a fraction of the cost.
