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!

Piano Tuning for Valley Park Homes

Valley Park, nestled in the Meramec River valley, exposes pianos to seasonal humidity pockets that can affect tuning stability and action performance. Moisture tends to accumulate in the valley, causing soundboards to swell and felt hammers to absorb excess moisture—resulting in heavy key action and pitch drift if not addressed with precise, environment-aware care.

We regularly service pianos throughout Valley Park, including homes near Lone Elk Park, within the Valley Park School District, and neighborhoods along Marshall Road. By tailoring our tuning, regulation, and stabilization techniques to these river-valley conditions, we help each piano maintain consistent pitch, smooth touch, and long-term mechanical integrity.

Burd and Sons brings Joe Kemple’s 38 years of professional experience directly to your home. By combining master-level technical skill with a deep understanding of Valley Park’s unique geography and humidity challenges, we ensure every piano remains mechanically sound, tonally stable, and enjoyable to play for years to come.

What a terrific asset to our artistic community! A technician equal to any task at hand, with a true appreciation for the unique characteristics of the instruments under his care. We have a trio of challenges - a new Bosendorfer grand, and old Baldwin grand, and a Steinway upright. All are behaving extremely well after a year with STL Pianoworks. Tunings are superb, and the technical work is SUBLIME. For this you would expect to pay prices well above the market, but prices are very reasonable, and the service and responsiveness let you know that exceptional work is the rule, not the lucky exception. Trust this tech and don't look back. Make the smart investment.
