Why Yaya clients hire from us.
Yaya is the Hurlingham–Kilimani crossover — apartments clustered around Yaya Centre, full of working professionals and young families. Digital piano and guitar lead here; we work mostly evenings and weekends, parking at Yaya and walking in.
We've been teaching out of Kikuyu since 2016 — Concerto's roots are right here in this corner of Kiambu.

Frequently asked
Quick answers for Yaya.
01Do you deliver hire equipment to Yaya?+
Yes. Full PA / drum / keys setups are delivered and collected by our team in Yaya. Delivery is built into the hire quote for confirmed bookings — no surprise charges on the day.
02How are hire rates calculated — by day, weekend, week?+
Daily rates are the base. A weekend (Friday pickup, Monday return) is 2× the day rate. A full week is 4×. Longer hires get a custom quote. The clock starts on collection / delivery and ends on return.
03Is there a deposit?+
Yes — a refundable security deposit per item, returned in full when the equipment comes back in the condition it left. For first-time hirers we keep it conservative; established clients (schools, churches, repeat event organisers in Yaya) operate on account.
04What gear is available?+
PA systems (300W to 2,000W), drum kits (acoustic + electronic), keyboards and stage pianos, vocal microphones (Shure SM58 and similar), instrument mics, monitor wedges, stands and cables. Lighting and projectors are on request. See the full catalogue at /equipment-hire.
05What if something breaks during the event?+
Fair wear and tear is expected — we don't bill for it. Drops, spills, missing parts and theft come off the deposit at replacement cost. Every piece is tested in front of you at handover and tested again at return, so disputes are rare.
06How far ahead should I book hire for an event in Yaya?+
Weekend dates fill up two to three weeks ahead in school exam season (Nov, Mar) and around festive dates. Mid-week is usually available with 24–48 hours notice. For large multi-day hires, book at least a week ahead.
