Piano tuning
Adjusting string tension balances pitch and intervals. If a piano has drifted significantly, its condition determines the appropriate approach.

Your piano, considered individually
Thoughtful care in an ocean-facing room.
A piano facing broad windows may need a placement and room-conditions conversation as well as tuning. The technician checks how it sounds and feels, then explains whether pitch adjustment, action repair or other work is appropriate.
Seasonal occupancy can mean different thermostat or window habits. Note those changes and the last known service rather than assuming all coastal pianos need the same schedule.
Maestro Piano offers exceptional piano tuning and repair, delivered to the highest standards by a highly skilled musician and pianist with over 50 years of piano-tuning experience. His training took place in Russia at a piano factory specializing in piano construction and tuning. A trained ear, careful diagnosis, traditional specialist tools and deep hands-on repair and restoration craft guide the work; condition and repair scope are assessed individually.
Grand or upright?
Start with the mechanism.
A grand has horizontal strings and upward-striking hammers; an upright has vertical strings and a different return mechanism. Both need pitch and action checked, but access to parts and regulation differ. Findings and proposed work are explained before you decide.
Explore all piano servicesKey, hammer & action repair
Silent notes, sticking keys, or broken hammers need diagnosis. Tuning alone cannot restore a damaged mechanism.
Regulation, voicing & restoration
Regulation improves the action’s response; voicing refines tone. Larger restoration and refinishing decisions start with an inspection.
House, apartment & condominium visits
What to expect
in Hillsboro Beach.
Condominium inquiries should include visitor approval and any elevator requirement for carrying tools. For a house, identify the entry contact and room location. Do not move the piano ahead of an ordinary assessment.
The visit starts with listening to your concerns and inspecting the piano. The findings and proposed work are explained before you choose how to proceed. Coverage and visit scheduling are confirmed individually; this page does not imply a local office.
A useful symptom to describe
One note that rings after the pedal is released may involve damping rather than pitch. Show what happens with a short recording.

An assessment, not assumptions
Tell us about
your piano.
Use the private request form with your name, contact details, Hillsboro Beach location, piano type or make if known, and what you notice. Photos or a short video can help, but do not replace an inspection.
Many issues are repairable, but not every instrument is a practical restoration candidate. A request does not reserve a visit time or commit you to work.

Before a visit
Your assessment,
step by step.
Share the concern and access details. Coverage and scheduling are confirmed individually. The piano is inspected, then findings and proposed work are explained before you decide.
What should I tell you first?
One note that rings after the pedal is released may involve damping rather than pitch. Show what happens with a short recording.
How should I prepare the room or building?
Condominium inquiries should include visitor approval and any elevator requirement for carrying tools. For a house, identify the entry contact and room location. Do not move the piano ahead of an ordinary assessment.
Does being out of tune mean a key needs repair?
Tuning changes string pitch. Silent or sticking keys, broken hammers and uneven response need a mechanical check. Many faults can be repaired after inspection, but no outcome is guaranteed.
