Introduction
I have been in business since 2003. The majority of my clients have been private individuals, though I also service pianos for institutions, businesses, and performing artists.
Each client has a particular musical personality. Every piano I tune is different from the next and is part of a 300-year history of the instrument's development.

Dennis was professional, timely, considerate of our home, and took great care of our piano. We didn’t know the last time it had been tuned and had a few sticky keys. It is now like new and we are so thankful! Definitely recommend hiring Dennis!

Highly recommended!!
He is very precessional and knowledgeable. He took time to explain all my questions before he started work. Also, very careful all the piano parts and made sure that strings are perfectly tuned. Thank you again!!

Dennis explained what he was going to have to do to get my very "out of tune piano" sounding good again. He took his time and it sounds great! He was very professional. I'm going to be a repeat customer

Dennis was quick to respond and locked in an appointment date and time right away. He showed up on time and got right to work on our 1980s piano. He was well versed in piano tuning and gave me a rundown of my piano at the end. He is very kind and respected my home which included offering to take his shoes off. I will definitely use him again.
