Services - Possum Piano

At Possum, we specialise in piano tuning, repairs, and careful maintenance to bring out the best in your instrument — whether it’s a cherished upright in your living room or a grand piano on stage.

Piano Tuning

Your piano is at its best when it’s in perfect pitch.
We offer:

Standard tuning for regular maintenance (recommended every 6–12 months)
Pitch raises for pianos that haven’t been tuned in a long time
Fine-tuning for performance or recording settings
Tuning is performed using a hybrid approach that combines traditional aural methods with advanced electronic analysis to calculate an accurate stretch curve based on your piano’s individual string scaling and inharmonicity. This ensures a stable, resonant tuning that brings out the natural warmth and clarity of your instrument across the entire register. Make a booking here.

• Sticky or sluggish keys
• Pedal adjustments
• Action regulation
• String repairs/replacements

We take a careful, conservative approach to each repair — preserving the unique character of your piano while restoring its playability.

In-Home Appointments

We come to you — tuning and repairs are done on-site, with minimal disruption and maximum care.
Serving the Illawarra and Sydney region, with flexible scheduling and friendly service.

Piano Advice

We offer pre-purchase inspections to help you make an informed decision before committing. Just like buying a car, choosing the right piano means checking under the hood—you want to avoid any hidden issues or costly surprises.

We’ll provide a written inspection report to assess the instrument’s condition and highlight any potential issues. If you go ahead with the purchase and book your first tuning with us, we’ll offer a discount as a thank you. We can also assist with arranging piano movers to help safely transport your new instrument.
Inspection fees start at a base rate of $50, with prices varying depending on location and travel time.
