Tim Rainwater Piano Technician

Tim did a great job with my piano, which was sadly flat and out-​of-​tune after a few years since its last tuning. Tim brought everything back up to pitch and even helped lubricate a sticky/​creaky damper pedal so it is working smoothly again. He was prompt, courteous, worked efficiently and made my piano play beautifully once more. I highly recommend him!

Yes! The first review of a piano tuner on Unilocal Albuquerque. I win.
Surprising as it may seem, judging by his last name alone, Tim is neither Native American nor New Age hippie, but rather a sprightly, well-​connected piano whisperer who drives yesteryear luxury vehicles. Apparently he has street cred, at least from the classically-​trained lot, because he regularly performs handjobs for both small and large pianists.
I’m really sorry about that. I just had to. I do apologize.
Tim is a pro, it was obvious the moment he walked into our home at the scheduled time. After spending a moment remarking on the pristine condition of our 1960’s era Yamaha, he got to work, and the performance was one to behold. Piano tuners– good ones, anyway– enjoy careers that largely no longer exist in our society. If only for an hour or two, they have the unique pleasure of getting acquainted with these extraordinary instruments in delightful fashion; Tim spends half of the time playing with the keys, often pounding out little ditties, and he’s really talented. Slowly, while he works, you can actually hear the piano getting its voice back. It’s a gorgeous ritual, and he gets to do this every single day.
He’s good. Very friendly and sweet. Need a tuneup? Call him.
