In Tune Piano Services
Piano Tuning and Repair Services in Charlotte, NC
In order for you to experience the full beauty and potential of your piano, it must be properly tuned. Pianos go out of tune because of changes in their environment. This is true for every piano, no matter how much use it gets. In order for your piano to sound its best, it should be tuned once or twice a year.
Our tuning service calls include more than just a tuning. When we arrive, we do a full inspection of the piano from top to bottom. If the piano is capable of receiving a tuning, we perform the tuning in a timely manner. After the tuning, we'll do some dusting and minor repairs, if necessary. Examples of minor repairs are adjusting hammer alignment and lubricating sluggish parts. We want your piano to perform its best for you and your budget.
In Tune Piano Services has been servicing pianos in the greater Charlotte area since 2017. We believe servicing pianos is about more than just the piano, it's also about people. We want to help musicians reach their true potential. This could be a 5 year old who is taking their first piano lesson, or a seasoned professional musician perfecting a piece for performance. From in-home beginner pianos to churches and performance venues: all pianos receive the best possible care.

Sarah Dressel, RPT
Registered Piano Technician in Charlotte, NC
Wanting to start a career utilizing her lifelong passion for music, Sarah Dressel began tuning and repairing pianos in 2014 under the mentorship of Registered Piano Technician Alicia Shumate. She started In Tune Piano Services in 2017 and is a Registered Piano Technician (RPT) herself. Being an RPT means Sarah is a member of the Piano Technician's Guild and she has passed a series of rigorous exams on the tuning, maintenance, and repair of pianos.
Sarah is a lifelong North Carolinian. She grew up in Cary, North Carolina with her large, musically inclined family. Sarah attended Appalachian State University and graduated in 2013 with a BA in Electronic Media/Broadcasting. After graduating she quickly realized that a career in the music field would be the most satisfying for her. Sarah moved to Charlotte and began teaching piano at Charlotte Music School. She taught dozens of students there over the course of 4 years and that’s where her passion for pianos and piano technology took hold.
When Sarah isn’t tuning pianos, she enjoys playing the accordion and the piano, attending concerts, and spending time with her dogs Flapjack and Margarine.
