We are a family run business established in 1980 offering the full range of piano services throughout Sussex, Surrey and parts of Kent and Hampshire.

    Horsham Piano Centre was set up in 1980 and has been a family run business since then on the same site in Queen Street. Although the shop has just a single frontage it extends to a large showroom of around 2500 sq ft, enough to house a stock of up to 50 pianos. We offer a full range of piano services including sales, repairs, tuning, hire and removals. Also on the same site are our workshops where all the repairs and restoration work is carried out.
