Family business
154 Years
Coming from a family with a working history in pianos of over 154 years, I find it hard to remember a time when I wasn’t surrounded by them, be it from when I was a small boy at home watching my father repairing or regulating piano actions in the garage or spending Saturdays at the family shop in Cobham, to days sitting next to dad listening to him tune so that my ear would change and I could learn how to hear beats rather than just sounds. From 1990 I spent 10 years in the workshop perfecting my skills at tuning and restoration, voicing, toning and repairs. Only after this, was I allowed to go on the road and start tuning for customers in their houses and venues.
Experience You Can Trust
I am the fourth generation in my family to tune pianos; my father, Mr A. G. Sheargold taught me and his father, my grandfather taught him as did his father and his father before.
I will probably be the last Sheargold piano tuner… but who knows…
