Who is South Jersey Piano?

South Jersey Piano grew out of the need Ben saw in 2010 for quality piano work in rural south Jersey. The business started small and grew gradually over the years, blessed by the referrals of many satisfied customers.

Currently, we are a full service piano business offering sales, rentals, and in-home service of the highest caliber, as well as piano moving and a busy workshop for larger jobs. Most recently, we have completed construction of a state-of-the-art recording studio, designed once again with the musicians of southern NJ in mind, and housing a pristine Yamaha C7 semi-concert grand.

Our client list includes professional touring musicians, recording studios, concert venues, schools, churches, and music festivals. However, our most important clients are the homes of musicians of all ages - the future of music in south Jersey.

South Jersey Piano is a licensed and insured New Jersey LLC.

I had a wonderful experience with SJ Piano Service!! I highly recommend them! They were punctual, professional and very nice. Ben responded to my emails in a timely manner and followed through with everything he said he was going to do. He and his movers took great care with moving my piano, made it look effortless and were respectful to my home. I even have Ben coming back to tune it! They were all great! I would use them again for any of my piano needs!!

Ben Patterson always does an excellent job at tuning our piano. He is very professional and easy to get a hold of to make or change appointments. He has been tuning our piano since we purchased it and we couldn't be happier.

I found SJ Piano Service on line a few years ago and have been 100% satisfied. Ben provides great customer service, making scheduling easy, and showing up on schedule. Most importantly, he knows what he is doing. My piano has never sounded better.
Highly recommended for those who care about keeping their pianos in tip top shape.

I couldn't have been more thrilled with the professionalism and skill of South Jersey Piano Service. The company moved my piano and came back to tune it 2 weeks later and exceeded my expectations both times. Their prices are incredibly reasonable and I couldn't have asked for a higher level of service.

Ben takes no shortcuts with his work, and often throws in a little extra here and there. He really cares about maintaining a good relationship with clients, and ensures that each piano he works on provides the best possible playing experience.

Ben is an excellent piano technician. We have a 7.5 foot grand that requires patience and Ben takes his time to make it sound perfect.
