Standard tuning and pitch raises
I tune by ear with pitch forks by preference. When an instrument has drifted farther than a standard tuning can address, I also provide pitch raises.
Tuning, pitch raises, voicing, regulation, and practical repair for pianos across metro Denver.

The action shapes how the keys respond beneath your hands. I provide regulation work when the instrument's touch needs technical attention.
Voicing addresses the character of the piano's sound. Ask me about it when the tone feels uneven or no longer suits the instrument and room.
I handle broken strings, broken keys, and other piano repairs that can be completed where the instrument lives.

I travel to the instrument, whether it needs a routine tuning, sticky-key work, a broken-string repair, or a careful look at its action.
“LJ is very professional and knowledgeable and makes sure to clearly explain any issues. I know I can trust her with my piano!”
“LJ is by far the best piano tuner I have ever experienced! She is highly responsive, knowledgeable and professional. She also takes the time to explain in great detail the process she undertakes...”
“LJ did a great job tuning my piano and fixing multiple sticky keys. She was professional, knowledgeable, and patient. I have already schedule her to re-tune in 6 months.”
“Excellent piano tuner! Highly recommend. Tuned up our old piano and made a repair on one of the strings and hammers.”
I have tuned and repaired instruments in homes, schools, theaters, universities, hotels, recording studios, churches, and professional music rooms in Denver, Boston, New York, and Los Angeles.
I have played piano since I was seven. In 2007, I began an apprenticeship with the technician who tuned my childhood piano. I studied the books, followed her to tuning and repair appointments, and practiced on my own instrument.
After a year, I began tuning professionally and founded LJ's Piano Tuning & Repair in 2008. I know both methods, but I prefer to tune by ear with pitch forks rather than relying on a machine or app.
I schedule tuning and repair throughout the west and south metro and nearby Front Range communities.
