The home of qualified and responsible professionals since 1984.

• The APTTA is Australia's foremost source of expertise in piano servicing, technology, knowledge and resources for both our registered members and for you and your piano. Over 300 registered and qualified piano technicians are members of the APTTA and that means by choosing one, you can be confident that the level of services, expertise and integrity are of the highest standard and are governed by the principles of the Association Committee. 


• The over-arching mission of the APTTA is to promote the highest possible standards of piano service by providing members with opportunities for professional development and by recognizing and improving technical competence through regular practical examinations. Additionally, the APTTA mission statement reaffirms its commitment to you - piano owners and users - and invites you to use the professional services of the association.

• Rigorous technical examinations set by the APTTA are used to ensure that an ARPT – Australian Registered Piano Technician – has the credentials and technical skills to competently perform normal and complex piano tuning along with servicing and repairs in a method approved by the Association. We encourage you to choose an ARPT to attend to your piano as unqualified tuners may not offer the accredited, professional surety and dedication to your piano. 

APTTA QUALITY - It's not an act, it's expected ... and it means doing it right every time.

'Fantastic service. I couldn't be more pleased'

My piano needed some urgent expert attention prior to being used at an important gathering ... I'm so glad I picked qualified Technician. He came out to my house on short notice, assessed the problem, gave me great quote for the repairs and told me how much time he would need to complete the work ... I said it was urgent so he came back the next day to complete the job - perfect !

Greg and Caroline from Nundah, Brisbane.

A well cared for piano is a treasure for life.
Here are some tips to assist you in getting not only the best results from your piano, but also minimising the need for servicing.

  • The piano is an investment that will bring enjoyment and a wonderful challenge to you and your family for many years. Pianos like most things have a life span. This can vary from only a few years through to approximately 100 years, largely due to the care of the instrument. For this reason it is important to understand the nature of an acoustic piano.
