David was fantastic! He is professional and very meticulous in every detail of the piano. He is very knowledgeable and I enjoyed listening to him explain what he was doing and also the how he does it. His rates are quite reasonable and he did an excellent job on all the aspects of the tuning. My piano now sounds amazing! He is most certainly going to be our piano tuner going forward. I would definitely recommend his service to everyone needing to have their piano tuned. Details: Upright piano, not tuned for about 10 yrs, played a couple times a month.

I recently adopted a 50 year old piano, and David had it ready for me to begin lessons by the end of his first sit-down with it! It was lovely learning about the history of this particular model and what I can expect out of it's care requirements. I'm so happy to have it up and running and ready for me to learn- thank you!

David was extremely knowledgeable and talked us through what he was going to do. Was able to let me know more about piano I had recently got and got her sounding absolutely beautiful. Will recommend to anyone who needs a tuning and will continue to use over the years as piano needs to be returned.

David was extremely knowledgeable, shared how/why he was taking apart the piano (for a tuning!!) and spent hours getting my girl in shape. We were thrilled to have a cleaned and tuned piano for the same price as a regular tuner might do. We highly recommend his services to anyone.
