Sal communicates clearly and quickly, was on time and very nice. I have an older piano, and Sal fixed it up great! I will definitely use him for my next tuning.

This was my first time hiring Sal to tune and repair my 67 year old piano. Sal arrived on time and did not rush to complete the tuning. He spent a couple of hours at it, until he was satisfied with his work. Although I suspected he was going to find the need to make some substantial repairs, that proved to not be the case. He has a good personality, had no problem answering all of my questions and I thought he did a fine job. I won’t hesitate to hire him again.

We have not tuned our grand piano in several years and Sal was awesome in tuning it. He spent over 2hrs but kept the quoted price. Terrific, I already scheduled my next tune up with him. Won’t use anyone else. He’s professional, honest, and knowledgeable. He explained many things about our piano that we never knew before. He’s terrific

Sal was here about 15 minutes ahead of schedule and, after working on the piano(which he got to right away), told me some information about the piano that I found very helpful. I will definitely utilize his services again as I intend to have the piano tuned every 6-12 months.
