What is Regulation?
The inner working mechanism of your piano is meant to work and perform exactly as it was built by the original manufacturer. Periodic adjustments to the action must be made in order to correct problems generated through the wear and tear of natural time. Having the action regulated ensures that all its parts and points work collectively and perfectly together. Pedals are also regulated and lubricated. Piano is tuned and toned. Any missings parts such as tapes or springs are replaced.
