Piano Repair Services

Bring your broken piano back to life with South Jersey Piano

Do you have a broken piano in your home or studio and no idea what to do with it? Contact South Jersey Piano Service’s master piano technician Ben Patterson and have it brought back to life. We work on all types of pianos and can accomplish most routine piano repairs at your home or studio for your convenience. For complicated repairs and major replacement work like repinning and restringing, you can simply schedule a pickup date with us so we can take your instrument to our workshop.

We provide complete piano repair and maintenance services, such as repairing broken action parts like hammer shanks, butts, wippens, damper levers, and flanges. We also do key and keytop restoration to give your piano a refreshed, brand new look. With South Jersey Piano Service, you can go back to making beautiful music with your properly repaired and tuned piano.

We troubleshoot and fix common piano issues such as:

Sticky keys

Most of the time, this can be resolved by adjusting the key felt or balance pin. We also make sure to check for less common causes.

Weird or unusual noises

In our experience, weird noises are usually caused by loose parts, such as screws and hammers, or buzz from parts that shouldn’t be touching each other. That’s why we take great care to check every bolt and screw, especially those that are difficult to access, to ensure that all instrument parts are properly attached or placed.

Squeaky or broken pedals

The common cause of pedal issues is wear and tear, especially with the pedal’s leather and felt parts.

Dirty or broken soundboards

This task requires specific tools and up to two hours of work, especially on grand pianos. We use special dust removers and a top-of-the-line polish to bring the soundboard condition to as close to brand new as possible.

Broken strings

This is more common on older pianos, as strings get brittle with age. However, strings sometimes break for no apparent reason.

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.
