Seemed rushed and not thorough so after he left I spent a few moments checking his work with a chromatic tuner. Many notes were so far out of the pitch sensor range that I knew his tuning would not last. I called him immediately and let him know but he had no interest in coming back to make adjustments. Sure enough 6mo later the piano is out of tune and he 3-4 keys that stick. Poor work and poor customer service for a $175 fee.
Response from PETER D. TARKOFF
"I did look this customer up in my records and I actually serviced his piano in April of last year. From what I can remember I raised the pitch of his piano quite dramatically and explained how there is an almost immediate process that begins of string stretching and reversion. All I can say is I couldn't have been as bad he says because he called me back last week to have me come out and do it all again as if everything was fine. Unfortunately I couldn't schedule him in a timely way so he writes this review a year after the fact, puzzling"

He did an excellent job with the tuning. He was very professional, friendly and highly knowledgeablein his field. The pricing is reasonable and I would highly recommend him to others.

MR. TARKOFF IS ALWAYS PUNCTUAL, AND IS EXTREMELY COMPETENT. HE IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT HIS SUBJECT, AND AS A BONUS, PLAYS THE PIANO VERY WELL. MY FAMILY, AND I WERE VERY PLEASED WITH HIS WORK, ATTITUDE, AND THE PERFORMANCE HE GAVE WHEN THE WORK WAS FINISHED.
