The Only Thing That Makes Cleaning Your Piano Easier Is To Have A Piano Tuner Clean It

The only thing that makes cleaning a piano easier is to have a pro do it
I am always amazed how dusty and dirty a piano can get between tunings. As part of my MINOR REPAIR service, and with the help of the piano owner, I will do a light cleaning before or after a Precision Tuning. But, eventually, your piano will need a thorough cleaning – inside and out. Dust and dirt eventually works its way into the action and other working mechanisms of the piano and can lead to premature wear of many parts and pieces. Dust – over time – can cause considerable damage to a piano action. In schools and churches I often find rodent and bug damage – a piano issue and a health issue.
