Piano Repair in Fort Worth

Sticky keys, a broken string, a note that will not sound. Clare's repairs the mechanical problems that a tuning alone cannot fix.

Common repairs

• Sticky or sluggish keys, often caused by Texas humidity swings
• Broken treble or bass string replacement
• Full restringing on older instruments
• Worn or noisy action parts

Why keys stick in North Texas

Sticky keys are most often a humidity problem. When the air swings between damp spring weather and dry, heated winter air, the wooden parts inside the piano swell and shrink. Clare's diagnoses the exact cause, cleans the parts, and adjusts them so the keys move freely again.

When a piano needs more than a repair

Some problems, like a cracked soundboard or a failing pin block, are restoration work rather than a quick repair. If that is the case, Clare's tells you honestly and can take on the full restoration through the main shop.
