ACCESS AND STAIRS
Tyneside flats, Victorian terraces and city-centre access
Newcastle and Gateshead have a housing stock that can catch removers by surprise. The Tyneside flat is a building type found almost nowhere else in England: a two-storey terraced house split into two self-contained flats, each with its own street-level front door and a steep internal staircase leading up or down. They are widespread across Jesmond, Heaton, Fenham and Byker. Moving a piano into the upper flat means a full internal staircase from the front door, and moving into the lower flat can mean a narrow sub-ground passage. We know the building type and plan the access before the day.
Victorian terraced properties in NE4 and NE6 can have similarly tight internal halls and turning staircases. Georgian townhouses and purpose-built flats in the Grainger Town and NE1 area often have wider rooms but a longer carry to the street, particularly where parking restrictions apply near Grey Street and the commercial core. Modern residential blocks in Newcastle Helix and along the Quayside have lifts, but internal door widths and lift dimensions are worth confirming at the time of booking.
Access, including floor level, the number of stairs and whether a suitable lift is available, is priced automatically when you enter your address at book.pianospeed.com. Stairs are chargeable and calculated at the point of booking, so the price you confirm is the price you pay on the day with no extras added by the crew.
HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PIANO
Transit protection on every Newcastle move
Every piano travels on a padded skid board and is wrapped in a triple-thickness fitted transit cover made for that instrument, not loose blankets thrown over the case. On grands and baby grands, the legs and pedals are removed, individually wrapped in padded bags and stowed inside a heavy duty crate for the journey north and back. A Clavinova or stage piano gets purpose-built crating suited to its format.
We are fully insured. Our Trustpilot rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 77 reviews, which you can read before you book. Piano moves start from £125. The exact fixed price for your Newcastle move is calculated at book.pianospeed.com based on your collection and destination addresses, access details and the type of piano.

Can you move a piano in a Tyneside flat?
Yes. We move pianos in Tyneside flats regularly. The upper flat typically involves a full internal staircase from the street-level front door, and both the upper and lower flat layouts have their own access considerations. Stairs are chargeable and priced automatically when you enter your address at book.pianospeed.com. Tell us the floor and any access details when you book and we plan accordingly.
Can you move a grand piano in Newcastle?
Yes. We move grands, baby grands and concert grands in Newcastle on the Thursday route using piano-trained crews, padded skid boards and triple-thickness fitted transit covers. Legs and pedals are removed and individually wrapped. Tell us the make and overall length when you book so we send the right crew with the right equipment.
Do you cover Gateshead and the south side of the Tyne?
Yes. Gateshead including Teams, Bensham, East Gateshead, Saltwell and Shipcote in NE8 is on our regular Thursday Newcastle route. Book at book.pianospeed.com or call 020 7164 0000 to confirm the next available slot for your address.
How far ahead should I book a Newcastle piano move?
Because we run Newcastle on Thursdays, availability depends on how full the next Thursday route is. Two to four weeks ahead is sensible at busy times, particularly around school holidays and the start of academic terms. You can check live availability and book the next available Thursday at book.pianospeed.com.
Do you cover Jesmond, Heaton and Byker?
Yes. Jesmond and West Jesmond in NE2, and Heaton, Byker, Walker and Walkergate in NE6 are all on the Thursday Newcastle route. Book online or call 020 7164 0000 to confirm the next available date for your postcode.
