WELCOME
20 years ago at the age of 19, my father Kevin Brice took me under his wing and trained me at his workshop in St.Albans.
At Brooklands Pianos I learnt how to tune, regulate pianos amongst other aspects of the piano trade.
In recent years, I have worked for Kawai UK where the pianos are tuned, regulated and voiced to a high standard
I have also carried out tuning's locally on behalf of companies such as Reid's Pianos (Tottenham), Josefs (Northamptonshire) and Tesoro Nero (Lancashire).
I pride myself on a quality, professional service with a friendly approach.
Piano Repairs
I can undertake any repair work necessary to Action, Keys, Strings, Tuning-pins, Bridges and Pedals "In Situe" or, where appropriate, have the workshop facilities to carry out restoration work to Actions & Keys.
Regulating & Toning (Voicing)
Regulation: The precise adjustment of Touch, Repetition. Escapement & Blow - spacing of Hammers. Levers and Dampers and adjusting the exact point of Damper lift, in order to maximize the evenness efficiency and performance of the mechanism. HammerRefacing &Voicing/Toning: The removal of the string cuts in the Hammer Felt and necessary reshaping together with needling the felt in such a way as to restore an evenness of tone throughout the compass and the dynamic range; and Valeting: Thorough cleaning out of action, keyboard. key-frame & carcass( including washing grand soundboards) often combined with cleaning & dry lubricating/reburnishing all points of contact within the action in order to reduce friction and remove squeaks.
