Overall, great experience from the first interaction through to the end. Kirk is really knowledgeable, professional, and easy to work with. He got our piano up and running in no time. He even was able to pull the serial number and give us a little more history about our piano. PS - Kirk can do an awesome rendition of "Clocks" by Coldplay.

Kirk was fantastic. Responded promptly to my call, arrived on time, and charged less than the original quote. He paid careful attention to my piano and showed me how to fix a problem so that I would not have to call him the next time it happened. The best part was his playing to check the sound of the piano - it was a pleasure listening to someone so gifted make my piano sing!

Wonderful experience. This rarely-used piano hadn't been tuned for over 20 years. Kirk came and worked his wonders. The piano sounds so much better than it had. I will not wait so long the next time for service, now that I have a reliable, competent provider. Many, many thanks.

Great! I have an upright Kimball Whitney piano that I found on Letgo. I've let it settle in the home and it needed a tuning. Kirk was very responsive from my initial reachout, gave me several options for scheduling, and stuck to the quoted price. He showed up punctually and got right to work, giving me insight on the condition of the piano and tips to keep it in good shape. The perk? Listening to Kirk play delightful music while getting it all tuned up. He was courteous, professional and a joy to my ears! Thanks Kirk, I'll be seeing you again!

Kirk did a great job tuning our Mason grand! He is accommodating, and making an appointment with him was a breeze. We contacted him a few days before we had to host a recital and he was able make the trip the day after my call. His fee is reasonable and he was punctual and professional. Like a good doctor, he asked questions on the 'health' of our piano before working on it, and patiently answered all our questions. In the 12 years since we own this piano, he is the first tuner who volunteered to maintain the climate control system on our piano. I will certainly call Kirk again for our next tuning.

Kirk responded to my email within minutes and scheduled a time for tuning the piano the following week. He arrived on time and made the piano sound wonderful. Everything went smoothly and I look forward to seeing him next spring.

Great - Kirk responded to my email within hours, and came to do the job 2 days later. Price seemed fair and similar to what others were quoting. He was on time and did a very nice job, explaining as he went, and playing some nice tunes for us at the end! I'd definitely hire him again.

I picked Acoustic Piano Tuning based on recommendations on?Angie's List and location. ?Kirk showed up on time and did a great job tuning my piano which had not been tuned in many years. ?I plan to use him again in the future.

Kirk was a random choice from Angie's List, but I'd recommend him if you need piano work.  He showed up on time and was efficient and effective.  He did an excellent job and the piano sounds (and works!) great.  There is some work to do later (key registration, action and such) and I'll have him back for that, too.

Very polite and professional service.  Called to let us know that he would be 15 mins late.  Tuned well in about an hour and also gave me input on how to remedy some sticky keys myself at no extra charge.  Many thanks

Kirk arrived punctually and worked on the piano for about 1 1/2 hours. He is clearly an expert and is a musician.  He is very knowledgeable about pianos and provided some interesting information about this instrument.

Kirk is prompt, professional and excellent.  I wish I had another piano just so he could tune it!   He caalled me back within minutes of leaving a message. He showed up exactly on time and did a fantastic job.  He's super nice and not condescending like some tuners are.  A+++
