Are You Here Because You Recently Obtained a Used Piano?

Sherry K.Chesterfield
Joe came out to our home in Chesterfield, MO and did an amazing job tuning our massively out of tune second-hand piano. A previous servicer from a different company had put us under the impression that, due to lack of care, we would have to purchase a new piano... but now we know that it's not the piano but the tuner that makes all the difference. We will definitely have Joe back next year!

Many of our clients contact us after another tuning didn’t hold, didn’t sound right, or didn’t address underlying issues. 

We do it right the first time, GUARANTEED!

My Piano Hasn't Been Tuned in a Long Time

Piano Tuning for Kirkwood Homes

Kirkwood’s historic neighborhoods, including the Kirkwood Train Station area and surrounding districts, feature classic wood-frame construction and plaster walls that respond noticeably to seasonal humidity changes. These indoor shifts can cause soundboards to swell or contract and affect action components, leading to tuning instability and uneven touch if not addressed with a precise, environment-specific approach.

We frequently service pianos throughout Kirkwood, including homes near Kirkwood Park, within the Kirkwood School District, and neighborhoods such as Warson Woods and Oakland. Our tuning and regulation techniques are tailored to Kirkwood’s historic architecture, ensuring that each piano maintains consistent pitch, reliable key action, and long-term mechanical integrity.

Burd and Sons brings Joe Kemple’s 38 years of professional experience directly to your home. By combining technical mastery with an understanding of Kirkwood’s unique structural and environmental factors, we keep every piano mechanically sound, tonally stable, and enjoyable to play for years to come.

"Joe has been taking great care of our baby grand for 3 years now and we'd never use anyone else! He takes his time to get the tuning right, and spent extra time working on a specific key that has been giving us a hard time."

Joe is a true professional and takes care of our old console as if it were a Steinway grand. He's also friendly, prompt and has excellent communication. We're lucky to have found Burd and Sons and are very satisfied repeat customers.
