Read More »Are you wondering when would be the best time to tune a piano? Actually, there are TWO ideal times to tune a piano! The first one in the year is in spring, and yes, this means that the best time to tune a piano is in April and May! However, there’s another best time to tune a piano – and that’s fall, which means, just about right now, in October. In this article, I’ll tell you all about the reasons why you should try to have your piano tuned in spring and/or fall, depending on whether you want to have it tuned once or twice a year. You can reach me, Blanton Bendall, at 804-677-2416, any weekday (M-F) between 9 AM and 6 PM, preferably by text message, but phone calls work too. I look forward to talking with you! Why the best time to tune a piano is either spring or fall As you know, pianos are very sensitive to changes in temperature and humidity, and the biggest changes happen as you change over from winter to spring, and then again from summer to fall. The key is not to have the piano tuned right after the extreme high (or low) temperatures come to an end. The piano needs some time to adjust to the more moderate climate before it will hold the tuning properly. So if your piano is due for a tuning, now’s a great time. The fall tuning is also great because it gets your piano ready for the holidays. So many pianos are used for special concerts. And then there are family sing-alongs, or the kids want to show off what they’ve learned to play when relatives visit.

Although chewing sugarless gum can help keep your teeth cleaner in the short-term, there is no substitute for brushing and flossing your teeth every day.
