Michael Ello has been professionally tuning, repairing, appraising, and rebuilding pianos since 1981. He and his son, Joshua Ello, are both Registered Piano Technicians and members of the Piano Technicians Guild (www.ptg.org). They have both passed a series of three rigorous examinations that assess the knowledge and skills required to tune, maintain and repair pianos. Cat Ello (Mike's wife and Joshua's mother) handles the scheduling of appointments and manages the office and accounting. The PTG is the largest organization of its kind in the world and has established the only set of standards in North America for the tuning, regulation, maintenance and repair skills needed by a qualified piano technician. Registered Piano Technicians are professionals who have committed themselves to the continual pursuit of excellence, both in technical service and ethical conduct. Through affiliation with other technicians, manufacturers, suppliers and teaching associations, RPTs continue to enhance their knowledge and skills at conventions and local chapter meetings. Our technicians carry a large number of piano parts in their service vehicles which allow for many types of onsite repairs. While all pianos require regular tuning, normal maintenance includes: cleaning, regulation, voicing or replacing hammers, bass and treble string replacement, action part repairs or replacement, damper felt replacement, pedal assembly repairs, re-pinning flanges, and unwanted noise elimination.
