What’s the difference between a piano tuner and a piano technician?

In short, piano technicians can handle all aspects of piano repair, including tuning. Piano tuners, on the other hand, may not be qualified to do repairs or any service beyond tuning.

That means if a string breaks, a pedal is squeaky or a key is sticking, you may have to make a second call for a piano technician to repair it.

Pianos can have more than 12,000 adjustable parts that affect how it plays.

That’s why it’s important to find a technician who not only can tune your piano but also keep it in tip-top shape.

Doing so can help extend the life of your piano and enhance your playing experience.
