Rich has been tuning several pianos for the Sisters of Charity and Academy of the Holy Family for over 15 years. We are always very pleased with his work and dedication. Some of the pianos are over one hundred years old and after being tuned they sounded great! Rich has been very generous with his time and has come here to tune a piano with short notice. Thank you, Rich, for your good work!

Frequently Asked Questions About Perfect Pitch Piano Servicing
Why does my piano go out of tune?
The tuning of a piano is greatly affected by humidity and temperature, although usage and moving do have their effects. As humidity and temperature increase the wooden soundboard swells putting pressure against the strings, which tightens the strings, thereby increasing the pitch of the strings and pulling harder on the tuning pins. The reverse happens with a reduction in humidity or temperature. Unfortunately, not all strings or tuning pins will receive equal increases in tension and, thus, will be out of tune with each other. Above all, the degree to which a piano goes out of tune for any reason is dependent on the tightness of the tuning pins. If the pins are tight the changes in pitch will be less in relation of environmental changes.
How often should I tune my piano?
The standard for our area of southern New England is every six months. This is because a piano is gradually going out of tune all the time, and after about six months most people notice the piano sounds “off”. The “experts” say 4 times per year, following the seasons, but I think for the average home owner or school teacher this is extreme and expensive. If tuned every 6 months a piano will stay relatively close to it’s target pitch without too much stress to the instrument (or the wallet!).
Why do keys sometimes stick?
There are many reasons for stuck keys. The culprit is usually excessive humidity (which swells wooden parts against each other), broken or rubbing action parts, or just dust slowing down movement. The answer to your problem will come after examination by a tuner. Often the solution is simple and can be corrected along with the tuning at no extra charge.
