superb servicing and tuning

“Some people have pianos because they are beautiful to own and to look at. Others play them, love them and revere them. A piano is an extension of who they are and of what they do. For these piano lovers, there is Piano Industry.

I cannot recommend their turnkey services highly enough. From the arrangement of transport, to superb servicing and tuning of the instrument, to advanced care and setup for the piano at the right temperatures and level of humidity – Rudolf and Ivana deliver seamlessly and with a level of professionalism and warmth that is rare. I thoroughly recommend their services.”

Harmoniously perfect

“Piano industry has been tuning and servicing my pianos since their beginning. Tunings are harmoniously perfect and the servicing is astonishing. Their masterful piano technician, Rudi, is incredibly passionate about pianos and works hard on getting pianos in their best possible condition. They are the very best piano-technician company without a doubt. If they ever decide to move somewhere else, I’ll move with them!”

i have never enjoyed my piano so much

Early in 2021 I commissioned Piano Industry to tune my piano. Since then they have completed a major renovation of the piano, and have serviced three other pianos for family and friends – at my recommendation.

I have never enjoyed my piano so much as I have since the renovation.

Some highlights of the experience:

The Piano Industry team’s infectious and informative delight in their expertise and talent in working with pianos.
A quality of tuning which is new to me. Having a tuner who is also a pianist really makes a difference.
Qualities of honesty and discernment. The analysis of the piano’s needs was realistic about the possibilities of a major service and paid attention to what I wanted out of a piano.
A high level of professionalism in the management of the project: the quotation for the major service was highly detailed and clearly the result of considerable thought.
In general, enjoying confidence in Piano Industry’s international experience and standing.

It should be obvious that I recommend Piano Industry.
