"We have no govenmental (?) guidelines such as you state..." I have stated no governmental guidelines! The government does not regulate piano tuning in the UK. The rules I pasted are those of the Pianoforte Tuners Association, the British equivalent of the PTG. The view is taken that if you do not do it fulltime, you are not able to do it adequately. Best, David.
