What an exciting new era for Mobile Piano Service… We were recently selected to create and set up an interactive display involving our pianos in the Nexus 10 Building, The University of Adelaide’s business incubator ThincLab, at the Nexus 10 Building, 10 Pulteney Street, Adelaide.  Not only this, but we will also soon have a physical presence within the ThincLab itself, with our new city based ‘hot desk’ soon to be in operation. The ThincLab is an exciting initiative developed by The University’s Entrepreneurship, Commercialisation and Innovation Centre (ECIC).  Assisting businesses in South Australia to achieve their dreams, it is a home to creative thinkers, rule breakers and challengers and a place that gives those who see the world differently a chance to make their unique ideas fly! We are an enthusiastic team of young entrepreneurs, with a passion to succeed.  Do you have an idea about how you could partner or work with us and make your own ideas

  On 21st-24th August, Joe and the team will be picking up their piano tuning & repair kits and heading to the Limestone Coast.  It’s been a while since his last visit, so Joe is looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and meeting some new ones.  Joe’s enthusiasm and passion for revitalising pianos is infectious.   He loves his work and takes pride in ensuring that every piano he services ends up in tip-top condition!  He will be delighted to give your piano a new lease on life! Please feel free to give us a call on 0408 221 272 or (08) 8379 1218 to book a piano tuning or tuning and repair service while we are in your area.  Joe will be covering all major towns and places in-between, so we can accommodate you, wherever you are.  In addition to tuning and minor repairs, we have a wide range of new, reconditioned and restored pianos in our Norwood Piano

This week, our two tuners Joe and Tom – with a couple of hangers on 😉 – came to the Clare Valley region in South Australia on a piano tuning bonanza!  There were a number of highlights, including our first stop which was delivering this white baby grand to Sarah in Armagh. As you can see, it’s a beautiful addition to her home. We continued on our way, tuning and repairing pianos for lots of friendly locals, and along the way got to see a bull calf, as well as a piano in a horse float!  One of our favourite jobs was providing this piano to Cobwebs Café in Auburn.  If you are ever driving through Auburn or live in the area, pop in and see Judy for a coffee and have a tinkle on the piano!       In addition to all of this work, we ate some delicious food, drank some wonderful wines, saw lots of animals and took in the stunning scenery.   We

Joe is in Hobart today visiting Restored Pianos Pty Ltd, our affiliated store in Tasmania!  Restored Pianos has operated since 1973 and is one of the longest running piano restoration businesses in Australia.  Eric Hawkes, the owner of Restored Pianos, is also the president of the Master Piano Tuners, Repairers and Restorers Association of Australia and Joe’s former boss, with Joe being lucky enough to do his apprenticeship under Eric’s direction in the Hobart store during the 90s!    During his visit to Hobart,  Joe has hand selected 3 pianos from the store to bring to Adelaide – the first being a beautiful Ronisch, fully restored in Eric’s workshop,  as well as two other pianos to be restored in our Adelaide workshop.  The fully restored Ronisch will retail in our store for $7,995 lc2qszl. Joe is having fun on his visit to Hobart, instead of enjoying the harbour and all it has to offer, he is of course hauling around

Since the early 1990’s Mobile Piano Service has built a strong reputation within the piano tuning, repairs, restoration and sales industry in Tasmania and South Australia. For a long period of time, we have regularly travelled between those two states and subsequently conducted a lot of work in Melbourne.   From 2017, Mobile Piano Service will have an even stronger focus and presence in Melbourne and Victoria, expanding its professional operations from its permanent workshop and store in South Australia. For a decade or more now, as the Director of Mobile Piano Service I have witnessed the outreach of the piano business. Whereas buying, selling and servicing pianos was once a localised enterprise, changing technology, infrastructure and lifestyles of people has led to pianos, as with other goods, becoming national and global items moving between places nationwide and even worldwide. Because of the specialised nature of our work, our Mobile Piano Service – The Store website regularly receives enquiries from
