Tuning and maintenance

Every piano can go out of tune due to regular use and climate changes, such as temperature and humidity fluctuations. How often should you have your piano tuned? This depends on several factors: how quickly your instrument goes out of tune, the environment it’s in, how frequently you play, and your sensitivity to sound quality. Regular tuning ensures your piano maintains its best sound and performance. Let us help you keep your instrument in perfect condition!

Verbeter de Klank van uw Piano met Professioneel Intoneren

Voicing

Does your instrument sound harsh, dull, or lacking in dynamics? These issues may stem from the hammers, which are a crucial factor in your piano’s tone. Over time, the hammers can lose their resilience and shape, significantly affecting sound quality. By expertly voicing the hammers, we can enhance both the tone and dynamics of your piano. Many grand pianos and upright pianos can produce a more beautiful sound than you might expect. We’re here to provide you with the advice and services needed to unlock your instrument’s full potential.

Playing enhencement

The joy of playing is deeply connected to how your instrument feels. Is your piano too heavy, making it difficult to play, or is it so light that you struggle to control the hammer's movement to the strings? How consistent is the touch of all keys? Can you predict how each key will respond, or does each one feel different? We analyze your piano's touch to customize it to your preferences. Using the Precision Touch Design method, we ensure your instrument is fine-tuned for an optimal playing experience tailored just for you.

nstallatie van de Piano Life Saver door Pianoservice Den Haag, ontworpen om de piano te beschermen tegen vocht- en droogteschommelingen voor optimale stemming en behoud van het instrument.

Piano Life Saver

While the term "Life Saver" may sound like a bold promise, protecting your instrument from dryness and humidity is both beneficial and sometimes essential. The Piano Life Saver, also known as the Damp Chaser, helps maintain both your piano and its tuning for a longer time. The system optimizes the moisture levels within your instrument by activating a dehumidifier when humidity is too high, and adding moisture from a water tank during dry conditions. Investing in a Piano Life Saver ensures your instrument stays in top condition.

vleugel piane onderhoud revisie

What our customers say

Our new Yamaha TransAcoustic grand piano played too heavily, and we weren’t entirely satisfied with its rather harsh sound. Rani has been tuning our piano for years, and now our grand piano as well. She agreed with us and told us that she and her partner could address the issue.
After the action was removed and tested, two options were presented to us to improve both the touch and sound of the piano. We chose the most comprehensive option, which involved the following:
“According to the Precision Touch Design method, the key lever was adjusted by repositioning the pilot points on the key. Then, the key weight was modified with lead and finely regulated. Finally, the hammer heads were shaped, and the hammer head weight was adjusted.”
We were without the action for two weeks, and then two more days were spent at our home to fine-tune and model the hammer heads to perfection.
An impressive job with a beautiful result. My son and I now enjoy the greatly improved touch every day!

Liesbeth Bosma

The tuner suspected there might be an issue with the mechanic of the piano and suggested a technical analysis. It turned out that during a previous revision, which took place before I acquired the piano, weights had been added to the keys, compensated by an extra spring. Additionally, unnecessary friction was identified, and the sound was quite harsh.
Within a month, the entire mechanic was overhauled, and it was reinstalled and adjusted within a few days. The sound has significantly improved, and the mechanic has become much faster, lighter, and more consistent.
Only then did I realize that the piano had been holding me back before the revision. Pieces I have played for a long time now need to be re-studied because I can [essentially] play them much better than before. Where I had previously given up on playing Bach because it didn’t feel right on the piano, I have now started again.

Hans Stoffels

Through our piano tuner Rani, we came into contact with this grand piano. It was a beautiful Blüthner, but it needed some work. Rani and Joachim took care of this with their extensive experience and knowledge, organizing and executing everything for us. The piano has been given a completely new finish, and all of the interior components, strings, felt, etc., have been replaced. The grand piano now looks as good as new and, thanks to the excellent work of Joachim and Rani, it has a fantastic sound with a very responsive touch.

It was a wonderful collaboration!

Renovation - Grand Piano - Petrof
Joachim and Rani renovated my Petrof grand piano. They are professional, kind, and their work is of
the highest quality. Joachim spent
hours working on my piano, bringing the instrument to a top-level quality.
His skill in balancing the keyboard, voicing the sounds, and tuning the mechanism is superb.
I have encountered several excellent piano technicians, but Joachim and Rani are among the best I
have ever met.
I am grateful for the exceptional work they did on my piano.

Uzi Hayman

I am the happy owner of a Bösendorfer. After 15 years of intensive use, my grand piano was in need of maintenance, particularly regarding touch and intonation. I was referred to Joachim, an voicing specialist. From the very first moment, my contact with him was reassuring.
The mechanism was taken to the workshop for a thorough maintenance session. I was kept informed of his progress through apps and photos. In the end, my grand piano was restored to its former glory.

Wendela Holst

Recently, my grand piano (Steinway & Sons M, built in 1968) returned after a very thorough restoration by Rani van Emmerik and Joachim Stepanik. It’s incredible how beautifully they have restored it. It shines like it used to, and the sound is fantastic; the piano just sings! They are true professionals with extensive knowledge and experience, who work with great love for the instruments in their workshop and with visible joy. Rani and Joachim clearly take pride in delivering quality. The collaboration and communication went smoothly. If you want to have your piano renovated, you can trust them without hesitation. I highly recommend having them do a restoration. Craftsmanship at its best!

Nicolien Meerding

Rani and Joachim have transformed our grand piano in a sublime way, turning it from a heavy-playing instrument with a muffled sound into a light, agile piano with beautiful, clear tones. Although it is an Eastern European instrument, the result was unexpectedly good—even for Joachim.
Rani knows her craft well (know thyself), as ten years ago, she hadn’t mastered this aspect of the profession and referred me to a knowledgeable colleague for restoring another grand piano. Now, together with Joachim, things have changed.
They combine new computer techniques with traditional craftsmanship. Moreover, they are sincere, kind, and musical people who do not boast. After completing the work, I learned that Joachim was the expert who fine-tuned the new pianos for Steinway.
It is clear that, for multiple reasons, we highly recommend them, and more than that, for any piano and grand piano repair inquiries.
