Well known local business Pianovations is relocating to Clinton.
Initially founded in 1994, the business thrived in Londesborough until 2007, when it moved to Blyth for 15 years. It’s most recent move has brought it to Clinton.
That was Tamara Andre, the owner of Pianovations. She says that her passion lies in piano restoration, particularly rebuilding and preserving the history of these instruments.

While pianos remain a focal point, Pianovations has evolved to include a variety of instruments, from violins to guitars and ukuleles.
Tamara also considers many pianos to be heirloom pieces, and services like hers are difficult to come by – with a scarcity of technicians and restorers across the board meaning many would have to go to the next closest city to find comparable services.

Pianovations’ grand opening in Clinton is set for Wednesday from 10 am to 4 pm. Regular hours will be Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, noon till 4 pm, with additional appointments available by request.
As Pianovations establishes its presence in Clinton, the music center aims to continue its legacy of preserving musical history and providing a diverse range of instruments and services for the community. Stop by and check it out – it’s 15 Victoria Street, Clinton Ontario.
