Piano Refinishing
Highest quality closed-pore, hand-rubbed finishes, just how they were done 100 years ago. You won’t find a higher quality piano finish anywhere.
Touch & Tone Improvement
Just as important as tuning is keeping the touch and tone as good as when the piano left the factory. Periodic adjustments to both tone and touch make your piano a pleasure to play.
Climate Control Systems
Maintaining the health and tune of your piano has a lot to do with maintaining consistent humidity to your instrument. The climate control system we install inside the piano provides both humidifying and dehumidifying. It is almost invisible and is easy to maintain.
Piano Moving & Storage
For those times in your life when you need to move or store your piano, we provide professional moving and safe, climate-controlled storage.

In downtown Boulder, Pine Street Church’s Baldwin grand needed to be a concert instrument again. Here is the story of its on-site restoration and the Cultural Caravan concert that brought it back to the stage.
A Thank-You to the Piano Technicians Who Came Before Us
Every piano we open carries the work of the technicians who cared for it before us. A thank-you to Front Range colleagues Richard Capp, Chris Finger, Barth Story, Hank Lea, and Joel Weber, and a word to their former customers about continuing care.
Sharon’s dream piano that she actually hated.
A beloved Colorado piano teacher had her dream grand faithfully tuned for twenty years, and quietly disliked its harsh tone and heavy touch the whole time. No tuning could fix it. Three days of careful voicing and regulation did. Here’s why tuning is only the beginning.
