the other option is to tune it at its' highest pitch now, generally A-2. =
and leave it there till the next time when they may want to raise it.

  "...anything over 25% low is a pitch raise now."

  25% of what? And a pitch raise now - as opposed to some other time? I =
don't understand.

    Hi Doug,
    Yes, do go back and touch up the tuning.  Always explain before a =
pitch raise that it is just the first of several tunings to raise the =
pitch and stabilize the tuning.  Myself, I tell them on anything over =
25% low is a pitch raise now.  Another tuning in 2 weeks and then in 3 =
months.  I do not do a pitch raise unless they thoroughly understand =
this.  I write my own brochures and it explains all about the =
peculiarities of a pitch raised piano and the expectations of such.  You =
will learn how to be firm and exude confidence in your words with time =
and will come to not be afraid to speak your truth of pianos and why =
they go out of tune.
