About Tom

As a second-generation piano technician I’ve spent my life mastering the art of piano maintenance. Based in the Albuquerque metro I specialize in stabilizing instruments against our unique high-desert climate and am a certified installer of the Piano Life Saver. As a proud veteran I bring dedication and discipline to every appointment and pride myself on craftsmanship and trustworthy service. While I've serviced pianos for the New Mexico Philharmonic and Opera Southwest I choose to focus my practice on expert in-home tuning, repair, and regulation for local households. Whether you have a cherished family heirloom, a vintage upright, or a concert grand I provide comprehensive care for all makes and models. I look forward to becoming your trusted long-term partner in keeping your piano sounding its best.

Can you tune old neglected pianos?
Yes! If a piano hasn't been serviced in several years it will need a pitch raise--a quick tuning pass to pull the tension up--before a fine tuning can be done. If by chance it is untunable I DO NOT charge a service fee just for looking at it.
Can you fix issues like sticking keys?
Absolutely. Issues like sticking keys or squeaky pedals are completely normal and many of these repairs can be handled during a routine tuning visit at no extra charge. If major repairs ARE needed I always provide an upfront quote first.
How long does it take and how often?
A standard tuning appointment takes about 90 minutes from start to finish. For most household pianos getting it tuned at least once a year is sufficient while high-use or unstable instruments may benefit from being serviced twice per year.
What is the best way to schedule?
Sending a text message is the simplest and most efficient way to coordinate. We can schedule your appointment directly through text bypassing the hassle of online booking platforms or endless games of annoying phone tag.
