Artisan did a major overhaul on our familys 100-yr old heirloom piano. I couldnt be happier with the experience or the results. From walking us through our options at the beginning of the process, to their outstanding craftsmanship and follow-through even after final delivery, these guys are top-notch!

First, Artisan Piano Services is simply the best, dont go anywhere else! I come from generations of pianists and have played pianos of every size, shape and age. Ive observed many, many tunings. The tuning process is extremely complicated, it is an art form, this is not an anyone can do it situation. Artisan techs are simply the finest and best trained, using cutting edge equipment they dont rush the process but are meticulous with each adjustment. I worked with technicians Jack and Ryan on two separate tunings last week and couldnt be more impressed. I highly, highly recommend Artisan for any piano service.

This was our first experience with Artisan tuning our 45-year-old Steinway grand piano. Setting up the appointment was easy and an email confirmation with specifics was handy. The technician Ryan called just before coming, was right on time, and was very pleasant throughout. We especially appreciated his respect for the important COVID-19 protocols. He appeared to be very knowledgeable and thorough. Our piano now sounds great and is very clean! We can easily recommend Artisan.

David rebuilt the action and dampers on our 1889 Chickering Grand. It probably never sounded so clear, even when new! The action is lighter too. On time, on budget and a pleasure to work with both Ben and David. Many thanks.

We were so very impressed with everything about Artisan Piano Services: from the professionalism in scheduling to the artistry of the technician who worked on our piano, the prompt service to the kindness shown to both me and my child (who was home and very captivated with the tuning process). All that, and our piano sounds better now than it has in decades. David was able to make it not just in tune but playing with a much more beautiful tone overall. We highly recommend!

Artisan Piano has always been my number one go to service for piano tuning and repair. They are incredibly friendly, efficient, fast, and do a remarkable job. Every technician Ive ever had the pleasure of welcoming into my home has been very personable and friendly. Im also a music teacher at one of the local high schools and we routinely use Artisan to tune all of our pianos to keep our students going. I highly recommend their services! Thank you Artisan and keep up the good work.

Artisan Piano Services has truly given us the WOW effect. As first time customers, we were expecting wonderful service, but what we received was beyond what we ever imagined. The kindness and support of staff along with their amazing piano field technician, Ryan Gracey, proved that there are companies still out there that believe in quality, integrity and supreme customer service. Bravo! May your company continue to prosper so that others may benefit from your classic style of continued care and support. Looking forward to a lifelong relationship with you. Thank you!

Great work and very nice people. I appreciated the availability of appointments, the flexibility to get it done despite some obstacles in my busy house, and the clear explanation of the minor repairs that were required. Our old piano sounds lovely again after a few years of neglect!

Our piano had not been tuned for quite a few years. Im so glad I was referred to Artisan Piano Services! The technician arrived as scheduled and explained carefully what he would be doing. He even adjusted the pedals, which surprised me that it was a correctable problem! He toned down the brightness of the sound and explained that he would be happy to return to make further adjustments if we wanted a mellower sound. We are very satisfied with the service from Artisan Piano Services and appreciate the way they take care of their employees..

I cant say enough good things about these guys. Easy to schedule, quick feedback online, always on time – and incredibly professional. Ive had both Ryan and David tune my piano during the years and found them to be extremely knowledgable, honest and practical in their approach. (They were both also wonderfully patient with my two preschoolers who keenly observed the fascinating tuning process!) Ill hopefully be a returning customer for many years to come.

I was lucky enough to have Artisan Piano come give my 1926 Baldwin a recondition. They cleaned the instrument, refurbished the hammers, repaired the keys and regulated the action, fixed the pedals and tuned it twice. It was a pleasure to have such fine workmanship done on a family instrument.

Review №16

Just acquired a 1957 piano, hasnt been tuned or played in a decade or more.. Ben came out (right on time), got right down to working on it. Tuned it, made some adjustments to pedals and gave me a clear longer-term plan for finer tune, tone and voicing improvements on the instrument in the upcoming months.Plays and sounds better than Id hoped for. Outstanding.

Review №17

In this digital world, it is a pleasure to find craftsmanship that is based on a foundation of extensive experience. Ben had provided my first (free) tuning after I purchased from Classic Pianos, so I knew that he was competent, courteous, friendly, and punctual when he came again two years later. However, what I didnt know was that he knew far more about pianos than just how to tune. Because Artisan provides full restoration and rebuilding, their tuners know pianos inside and out, not just how to use a socket wrench and a tuner. Call me more than satisfied.

I have been using Artisan Piano Services for 2 years after I purchased a brand new piano. Adam and Ben have both come to tune and have done excellent work. Everyone, from the office/scheduling person to the tuners, are very professional and pleasant. They are very accommodating and have always been available in a reasonable time. I would recommend Artisan Piano Service heartily.

We have a very, very old upright piano. Evidently it was played in the Oregon theatre. Anywho, Ben recently came out and tuned her. Since my seven year old started taking piano lessons we’ve been taking better care of her. Or him? Who am i to say. Ben was wonderful. Personable, intelligent, and plays the piano beautifully. That’s my favorite part of having my piano tuned by the way. I know my piano is in amazing hands anytime any of Artisans piano technicians come out.

Ben did a great job in tuning the piano. He was thorough, professional, and quick. He did offer advice and quotes for improving the piano performance but was not intrusive or pushy in suggesting the additional services. I would recommend this company and their technicians. All of the technicians who have come have been great.

I have been using Artisan for about 2 years. The technicians have been extremely knowledgeable, on time, friendly. The technician on the most recent tuning suggested I consider doing a hammer repair which I would never have known about. I also found out that Artisan does appraisals on pianos so requested an appraisal which is being done. I like that they send postcards routinely to remind me to schedule a tuning.

Ive had Ben out to tune and work on my piano twice now. He is friendly, efficient and helpful. Although my piano could ultimately use a higher level of repair he worked with me on my current budget to bring it to a more than acceptable playing level at this time. I have been extremely happy with my service.

I was incredibly impressed by Artisan Piano Services. Scheduling was easy, and the technician who came to my house (Ben) arrived on time and kept me posted about his arrival. Ben did an amazing job in both tuning and tuning-up our baby grand piano, which needed extensive service. I feel like we have a whole new piano!! I will definitely use Artisan Piano services for all future tuning and service needs.

Review №28

Great service. Hadn’t had our piano tuned in >10 years and a hammer had broken off so needed a key repaired. Prior owner of our house was still getting postcards from Artisan Pianos, so figured we’d give them a try. Glad we did! Easy to schedule, really skilled and friendly technician came to house. Had to go to work, he locked up house when done- very trustworthy. Given how out of tune it was, needs another tune, which I expected. They are giving us deduction in price for the next tuning. Definitely planning on keeping Artisan as our go to piano tuners!

We have been using Artisan Piano for about 2 years, and are always satisfied with everything from easy scheduling, prompt arrival and a beautifully tuned instrument! We live in Ridgefield, and its a bit of a drive from Portland but they are always on time! We had David recently and he was able to quickly tune and fix a sticking key in no time, which we thought might be a more expensive repair. Thanks for the great service!

Review №32

I used to have a tuner that was a family friend and also a wonderful tuner, but when he passed away I was at a loss to where to go to find another tuner. I had heard about Artisan and decided to give them a call. When they answered I told them ,through tears, about my tuner and about how hard it was for me to start looking for another tuner. I felt that somehow I was betraying my friend although he was no longer around. Artisan, from the moment they picked up the phone, became connected to my story and didnt shrug me off as a sappy musician, and they listened. Then they sent a tuner to me...David. He knew the back story before coming to my house and so came to my door as a friend...sympathetic and capable. As of today, my piano has never sounded better! Each time David comes to tune I get so excited for him to get done so that I get to play my beautiful sounding piano! It inspires me to practice and play well. Thank you Artisan for having a listening ear and skilled hands(and ears for tuning).

My piano hadnt been tuned in 15 years and Ben did a fantastic job. He was communicative, friendly, punctual, and professional. He gave an honest assessment of the state of the piano and repaired it. Artisan Pianos prices are given ahead of time, so you know exactly what youre going to spend for what theyre going to do to your piano. And, they came all the way out to McMinnville even though theyre based in Portland. Wonderful company and service!

We use Artisan pianos to tune and service our home piano and have always been impressed not only by the quality of their work but also by how personable they are. As a faculty in the Music Department at Mt. Hood Community College, Artisan services all of our pianos on campus. They are always reliable and consistent and a pleasure to work with!

What a great company. When my tuner of 20 years passed away, they took over his practice and honored his pricing for the first tuning. Ive been very pleased with their professionalism: excellent tuning, personable, talented technicians (Ben was great!), on-time appointments and appropriate nudging that its time for a tuning. I highly recommend them.

Review №37

Ive used Artisan three times, and each time Ive been very satisfied with the results. Not only did they carefully tune my piano, but have gone above and beyond and proven their deep knowledge.The first time they came out, they gave me recommendations on conditioning the rooms air to help with the pianos longevity, and also so that the tunings will last longer.Another time they fixed a stuck key during a tuning. They also conditioned the hammers after I happened to mention the piano sounded a little too bright.The piano is a pleasure to listen to now that theyve been servicing it.

Adam from Artisan Piano Service has been tuning my baby grand when needed for over two years. He is an outstanding technician and takes the extra time & effort to customize the sound to my personal preference and needs (as I have some hearing issues). He completed another tuning this morning, and my piano literally sounds better than new as the chords and harmonies are now again perfectly balanced. Hes the VERY best!

Review №39

Ive had amazing experiences Artisan Piano. The customer service is outstanding, they are very trustworthy (recommended by our Piano Teacher). David, our technician, helped evaluate an old piano (had to go) and helped us understand what would be best for our family. We ended up having them evaluate a piano from Craigs list to make sure it was in good shape before purchasing. They have tuned our piano 3 times and take extra care each time. Cant recommend them enough!

Weve used Artisan for 2 years now for our piano tuning. Our piano had been neglected for years and we finally realized it would be good to take care of our piano so it can last for a long time. Artisan (and more specifically our technician Josh) has brought our piano back to life and it sounds so beautiful now. They are very professional, have wonderful customer service and are extremely reliable. We have always felt well cared for by this company which is a rarity these days with businesses. I highly recommend them for all your piano maintenance needs!

Artisan has been a wonderful experience. I work for the Cannon Beach Christian Conference Center and we have 7 pianos that we maintain. 5 of the 7 get regular use, 3 of those 5 get constant use. When our piano tuner passed away all of his accounts were passed to Artisan. We were given the choice to stay with them or find someone else. I am so grateful we chose Artisan. They are professional, they are personable, and they are thorough. Ben Wasson is our technician and he has always provided excellent service. He tunes 4 pianos every time he comes and has performed some very necessary repair/maintenance to our main Chapel piano. All of our pianists, who have been coming for a number of years, commented on how fantastic the piano is now in every way. It plays better, it sounds better, and its a lot easier for me to get a good micd tone out of it. One of our pianists even asked me for Artisans info because they needed some work done on their piano, which Artisan performed magnificently. They are incredibly happy. They also dont up sell or suggest something that isnt needed. I love this company, they are truly wonderful in every way. I cannot recommend them enough.

Artisan Pianos does a wonderful job of tuning my used baby grand. Ben is prompt ( even calling ahead to let me know if he is running early or late for the appt) A much appreciated gesture. He is courteous and professional and the piano sounds wonderful when he is done. The best part is listening to him play the piano as he is tuning it. Gives the novice me, something to aspire to.

Review №45

Artisan Piano Services did a great job of rebuilding my Steinway model A grand piano. The piano has been in my family for almost 100 years and most of the parts were original. I had some concerns about how a rebuild would turn out but any worries were unfounded. Artisan Piano did an excellent job all the way and I enjoyed working with David Hayes; I appreciate his knowledge, professionalism and positive attitude. In just a few weeks in the shop my piano got new hammers, shanks, flanges, pins, strings, and much more. It was amazing to feel and hear the difference the first time I played it post-rebuild. I love my “new” piano and enthusiastically recommend Artisan Piano to anyone who is considering having work done on their piano.

Great service! Arrived right on time, bright and early in the morning. Seth not only put my new piano into perfect pitch, but took a lot of extra time answering all the concerns I had abut the pianos performance. Ends things with a couple of nice little tunes.

Wonderful experience in every way. Absolutely lovely customer service, and Ryan gave new life to our piano, which had been untouched for many years. Thank you so much, Ryan! My impression after one tuning is that every person affiliated with the company is not only highly knowledgeable and skilled at what they do, but also just incredibly nice. We feel lucky to have found Artisan and highly recommend their services!

Review №51

Our small grand piano had lived in Iowa for 2 years, where there are huge changes in indoor humidity from summer to winter--not good for pianos. It then suffered a 2000 mile move to Oregon in 2011 and hadnt been serviced since.David cleaned it and tuned it very appropriately for this situation. He then removed the keyboard with the hammers (known as the action) and brought it to his shop for renovation of all the felts and adjustment of the hammers. He returned the action a few days later, carefully reinstalled it, adjusted the pedals, and refined the tuning. It hadnt sounded better in years!2 months later, I got a customer service follow-up call from his office, checking on my satisfaction level, which was very high; however, when further pressed, I told them that the pedal adjustment wasnt quite right and that the piano had gradually begun to sound harsh.I thought the pedals should be re-tweaked, although I said that could wait until the next scheduled tuning visit in July. I also thought the out-of-tune sound was understandable given what the piano had previously experienced. I didnt think the January tuning was to blame; I just hadnt intended to pay for tuning again any earlier than planned because of budget limitations.The office said they definitely wanted to make it right. Sure enough, David returned yesterday (March 26), fixed the pedal and corrected the tuning sufficient to restore a good sound. We agreed to have regular servicing again in July, as is appropriate for a piano in this condition.David is a highly skilled piano technician--maybe piano clinician would be a better term, since he provides diagnosis and treatment of a very high order. His company, however, makes customer service such a priority, its almost embarrassing to ask for anything at all!Please note that I previously posted this review on Angies List (R), where I rated this company A, the highest grade.

Artisan Piano Services is simply the best in the business.I am truly grateful that we were recommended to call David to service our piano two years ago. He is so talented, professional, and passionate about his craft.Our two boys are currently playing on our Weber Baby Grand piano that dates back to the 1930s and was a piano that I learned how to play many years ago. David was very helpful providing some recommendations on what we can do to keep our boys enjoying this piano for many years to come. Thank you, David.We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Artisan, and particular senior technician David Hayes, are great. Friendly, flexible, reponsive, and, most especially, expert and efficient. Always willing to discuss the technical aspects of maintaining a piano in top condition, in plain language. Each time Ive had my Estonia L-190 serviced, its sounded great. Bought the piano new and there were a few sticky damper issues at first, which David quickly and permanently fixedd. All around solid five stars, couldnt ask for more.

Ben came and serviced our 30 yr old upright Yamah piano which hadnt been tuned in probably over 20+ yrs despite being moved across various states lines. My wife felt he was incredibly personable, knowledgable, and kind.

Would definitely recommend Ben and Artisan Piano to anyone who asks!

Great at tuning and repair! These guys were recommended by Classic Pianos in Portland, who sell to all the concert halls and professionals - plus us regular folks. Theyre great! They show up when they say they will (even way out in Clark County), and will make your poor old neglected piano sound sparkly and alive. We are so lucky to have piano repair of this caliber.

I have had a very positive experience with Artisan Piano Services. The office staff was always prompt with scheduling and e-mailing accurate estimates and provided reminder calls for work to be done. The technicians (Michael and especially Ryan) are very courteous and handled my curious nature by explaining the inner workings of the piano. My upright piano is a family heirloom and had not been cared for or tuned for 60-70 years. I was given several repair options so that I could choose the one that suited my budget. Each technician (I have had 3 visits thus far) gave me a call with their expected arrival time and were on my doorstep exactly at the time I had been given. The time to complete the work was accurate each time as well. The work that I have had done thus far includes 2 tunings, application of new keytops, resurfacing of the hammers, full regulation, and new bridal straps. I highly recommend this company. Thanks to Michael and Ryan, my daughter is learning to play on the piano that her great great grandmother bought with her egg money! I plan on using this company again and will recommend them to anyone looking for piano services.

Fabulous service and top-notch experience. Our piano ended up needing to acclimate to Portland for over a year after we moved it from my moms house in the Midwest.

He also quickly and soundly patched up damage to the legs that occurred during the move. I cant recommend highly enough!

Thank you Artisan Piano Services! For my birthday, my 2 adult kids gave me a piano tuning by Artisan. My old beast is an antique upright from about 1899 or 1900. It had a couple of clacking keys and was sounding very tired. Ryan was an ultimate professional and gave my piano the TLC it has been needing for a long time. It is sounding better and more lively than it has in years.... decades? Thank you so much for bringing back the lovely tone of my antique. I wont be using ANY other piano service!

We had our 1st piano tuned twice by Artisan, and it was a pleasure having knowledgeable, experienced and very nice technicians do the work. The second tuning made the piano sound so good we could hardly believe our ears. They are responsive to any and every little issue presented to them, and are able to identify and fix whatever the problem is. We have since upgraded to a new piano that is now due for its first tuning. We are looking forward to it and would not consider anyone but Artisan to do it.

I love having the Artisan Piano Services technicians come tune my piano! The technician that came today was exactly on time, knew just what he was doing, didnt mind the kids watching him work and asking zillions of questions, and even made my non-high-end piano that hasnt been tuned in years sound lovely. This excellence is consistent with the service Ive had from their company in the past, and I would have to give them the overall rating of Miracle Workers.

Artisan rocks! Ive been in the music business forty years+ and Artisan is the best ever when it comes to tuning, and all technical aspects of piano care. Every technician that comes out to the house is pleasant, punctual, efficient, totally knowledgeable and my piano sounds better than ever. And best yet, the tunings done by APS hold! Scheduling is made easy by their courteous office staff. The technician always calls when they are on their way. And they follow up on visits with emails asking for an evaluation of every service call. My piano likes these guys.And so do I!

I recently shipped my 1953 Steinway M to Portland from Spokane. I was concerned about the condition since it had been in storage for 3 years. Artisan came out after it had settled in for about a month and tuned it beautifully. It had gone almost 1/4 tone sharp! Gave it a good cleaning and examination and fortunately found it in good shape. They were on time and did an excellent job . Look forward to next tuning and possible voicing. Highly recommend this company. Very happy with their work

I have a 9 Estonia Concert Grand. Artisan put new Renner Blue Point hammers and shanks on the piano, and voiced, tuned and regulated. The final product is wonderful! The balance between voicing to retain power but avoiding a harsh tone was beautifully reached and the action just flows in such a smooth fashion. Great response for soft playing, too. These folks really know what theyre doing. And they are honest and professional in all regards,

My piano was in need of a tuning before the arrival of a Japanese exchange student who loves to play the piano. I would have been embarrassed to have her sit at the piano because of being so off-key! Artisan Piano Services was highly recommended by Angies List, so I called them and Joseph came out to my home within a couple of days. He was very polite, well dressed, on time, and did an excellent job-----my piano now sounds like new again! I would highly recommend this company to everyone.

Review №82

I picked Artisan Piano Services to tune my piano based on Angies List so I had an idea about what to expect. I was not disappointed. From my first encounter over the telephone to waving goodby to Joseph after he finished with my piano the service was professional, respectful and friendly and the technical skills of the highest caliber. Let me tell you about Joseph, my technician. Actually, he was more of an artist than a technician, although he did an excellent job of finely tuning my old piano. There was a broken piece in the piano which Joseph was able to fix, adjusting his schedule to accommodate this hitch in the plan. And, finally, when he was finished with the tuning he quietly sat down and played the most beautiful piece of music. I asked him if he would mind playing another piece and he graciously obliged. I was moved to tears. I told Joseph that I had never heard such sweet sound from that piano. Artisan Piano Services were above and beyond expectations.

I moved to Portland two years ago from Florida with my Kawai vertical piano. Artisan Piano Services and David Hayes were recommended to me by the folks at Classic Pianos and Im glad they did. Im a music teacher so my piano gets a lot of use. I record with it as well. David has provided excellent service, making extra visits in between full tunings to address certain areas of the instrument that needed an adjustment. Hes given me suggestions on how to keep the environment around my piano more stable which will help prolong the life of the instrument. David is always on time and very easy to work with. He also offers me a special teachers rate and reciprocal referrals, which I greatly appreciate. I highly recommend David Hayes and Artisan Piano Services.

Excellent piano tuning service; it was very easy to schedule and appointment and the technician was skilled, timely and friendly. The price was a little high but not excessive.

The techs at Artisan Piano Services are AMAZING!!!!! They have been to my home twice. Both times they called twenty minutes before they arrived to tell me they were on their way and both times they were on time (i.e., at the very beginning of the time window I had been given). However, what makes them so incredible is their work. I initially had them out to tune my piano and do, what I thought, was a minor repair. They tuned my piano beautifully, but because of the age of my piano, the repair was potentially major. They sent Michael out to see if he could figure out how to repair my non-repeating keys. He fixed the problem in less than half an hour and did not charge me. Who does that? Um, Artisan Piano Services. I love them and will never have any one else out to service my piano needs.

We had such a wonderful experience! Not only was Dave super knowledgeable about the inner workings of our Piano, we discovered it was built in 1923. She has never sounded more in tune!We really appreciate all the staff at Artisan Piano!

I have been using David for many years, and his work has always been exceptional--he will do whatever is required to make sure you are satisfied, and he usually keeps the piano in such good stead that I need his services all the less for it.

I am so impressed with the caliber of professionalism and impeccable service provided by Michael, one of the technicians, who tuned our recently moved Steinway Grand and Baldwin from the bay area to Canby, OR. I had no clue who to call and saw Artisan Piano Services website. I thought it might be difficult to get my pianos tuned before our family arrived for the holidays, but called and there was an opening the next day. I was contacted by Michael before the service confirming the appointment and ETA. He was prompt and very punctual. Michael performed a thorough tuning plus a minor repair at the same rate of the initial quoted fee. Not only was the service great and reasonable, Michael is someone who I would not hesitate calling for future service and recommend to anyone. Now, our family will be able to celebrate the holidays in tune !I give Artisan Piano Services a big 5 rating

Thank you, Ryan, for a great tuning job and for eliminating the irritating noise in my damper pedal. I especially appreciate your quick response with a return visit to address some suddenly squeaking keys and for your willingness to work within my limited time frame. Great job and great customer service!

Great Experience with Seth. He called ahead and was on time. Then he even took time to explain the process of tuning and other various questions about our piano. We appreciated his professionalism and knowledge.

David and his team are fantastic. We have used them for tuning, string replacements and rebuilding of our pedal box. We will be life-time users of Artisan Piano Services. Wonderful customer service and know-how!

Fantastic, prompt service, willing to travel, and extremely reasonable rates! David was thorough and professional and the staff bent over backwards when I was worried about a buzzing sound that ended up disappearing on its own; they could have easily shrugged it off and let me deal with it on my own, but they went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied. I highly recommend Artisan Piano Services!

Had a tuning from Ben Wasson, a fine, knowledgable and enthusiastic technician. Did a lovely tuning in record time on my new Yamaha U1 from Classic Pianos, and was more than happy to give me (a 1-4 hour-a-day player and piano teacher) some suggestions regarding the regulation and fine-tuning of the instrument for the future. From set-up to send-off the service was smooth and pleasant; will definitely be using Artisan again.

David came to our house to fix one of the pedals on our piano. He was very professional and because the repair was so simple, he didnt charge us for the visit. I will definitely use them again when our piano needs tuning.

Artisan Piano Services offers great service and quality work. I am a violin/piano/voice teacher who relies on my piano (a Yamaha YUS5 professional upright purchased new in 2010) for lessons 4 days per week. I like how their secretary always answers when I call during business hours, and how they can offer tunings at a time that works with my busy schedule. I would highly recommend them for tuning, repairs, or restoration.
