(He charged me $150, which I thought was very reasonable.) Bill also didn't visibly judge my messy house crammed with sports gear and kids toys.

To their credit, they reached out to 3 different technicians in my local area and tried their best to remotely find a solution to the problem. They then offered to fly out their local trusted technician, but I declined. It was a frustrating overall experience for me, but they've been respectful in their communication and followed through in making sure I was either satisfied with my piano or got a full refund. ----- I'm in middle of a dispute with the owners Jonathan and Charlie. I purchased a piano last year from out of state and it's been nothing but trouble since the beginning. They've hired 3 different technicians and have visited my home 7 times and can't fix the dampening issue. I've asked for a refund which they've refused. This current technician has been unresponsive for over a month and Jonathan and Charlie can't seem bothered to resolve this. I'm filing a civil suit next week if there isn't any progress. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions. I have an email chain 40+ responses long and text proof with the technicians. Happy to chat with anyone about my experience.

He tuned it perfectly, too, plus he's a lovely, amiable guy. I'm thrilled. I've played piano since I was three, and this was the piano my parents had in our big old house growing up. Both of my parents were good musicians, my Dad sang in a professional chorale, and our family played and sang together during worship every Friday and Saturday evenings. We still all sing and play music together--3 generations of us now!--at our yearly family reunion. I'm a retired opera singer, and my piano means the world to me. I'm so grateful and feel so lucky to have been given the Ierna Piano Tuning and repairs company name and phone number. They are exceptional! An enthusiastic five stars from me!

I had no idea they needed to be tuned every 6-12 months, we haven't tuned ours in many moons. I don't play but my daughter does and I must say that after an hour long deep tune session the piano sounds much better. I learned that each tuning should be a fine tuning not a complete overhaul. I also learned because of this Florida weather that all pianos should have a dehumidifier installed so that the keys and other wood moving parts do not become sticky or wrap which makes a lot of sense. This is something the piano store should recommend when you first purchase a piano but I do not recall them ever mentioning this. Anyhow, the piano teacher immediately noticed that the piano sounded much better so I guess I will have to get this thing tuned on a regular basis. Overall great experience, Don was able to accommodate my schedule and come to the house after five and can schedule weekends if needed. I highly recommend him for you piano tuning needs.

From the owner: ON TUNING: What makes me a skilled and exemplary piano tuner is my extensive training from the…read moreButler School of Piano Technology, 10+years of experience, AND possessing a seasoned musician's ear from my 30 years as a classically trained pianist/instructor. Other tuners may say it isn't important that a technician is not a musician in order to tune. This is true to the point of achieving a decent "technical" tuning...but for a GREAT tuning, both technical precision and musicianship is vital. After all, the ultimate goal in tuning is to have a beautifully sounding, well balanced MUSICAL instrument. No two pianos are the same, so every tuning I do is customized to the particular instrument. I not only balance the instrument in a precise technical manner using tools and formulas, but I ultimately rely on my ear training and work diligently to achieve the most pleasing overall sound for YOUR piano. I always test out the new tuning by playing classical pieces on it and then fine-tuning, if needed...so my customers can actually HEAR the results immediately!

Mary Beth was very prompt! What a novelty, right?…read more Her knowledge of the piano was great and if she was unsure (we have an upright and she wasn't sure how to take the panel off, but did indeed figure it out), she is not embarrassed to say so and take her time to find the answer. Our piano that was in storage for over three years now sounds fabulous once more. As others have mentioned, Mary Beth did offer various scenarios of 'what could happen' since it's been a while since it was tuned. She then went on to explain why it could benefit from a more in depth service so that even this non-piano player understood it all. We will definitely be partaking of Mary Beth's services from now on and recommend you do as well.

Wow--I couldn't be happier with Mary Beth's services! :D…read more I'm the proud owner of a Yamaha CP-70B, a rare stage piano that, instead of a soundboard, sports pickups under all the strings and plugs in to a guitar amplifier. I mostly play classical, and it works surprisingly well to this end. I'd just moved the instrument from Denver to Sterling, VA, and and top of that I hadn't tuned it for nearly a year. It was in dire need of some TLC. While I'm capable of tuning the instrument myself (and doing a decent job of it for an amateur), I decided I'd rather save myself the hassle and hire a pro, so I found Mary Beth here on Yelp. She arrived to our appointment precisely on time. She spiffed up a few of the frictive keys with some lubricant, marveled at the unusualness of my instrument, and then proceeded to fulfill my equally unusual tuning request: Thomas Young's well temperament @ A=432Hz (well temperaments, you might be interested to know, are well-suited to classical/romantic/baroque music, because while all keys remain playable, each key possesses its own character, and pieces from this era were written to take advantage of those characters, whereas in modern equal temperament, all keys sound exactly the same). I don't know whether she'd performed such a tuning before, but she happily obliged me. I left to perform some errands, and about an hour and a half later she called me to let me know she had finished (wow, tuning it myself usually takes like four hours!). Upon first touch, the sonority of my modest little instrument absolutely captivated me! Never before has it sounded quite like this, so enchanting, so charming, so charismatic in all its registers. Proof? Proof's right here! https://soundcloud.com/steven-clauson/op-48-no-2-sample My Chopin's a little rusty as a result of not having played much piano in about a year, but now that my instrument sounds so wonderful I'm going to be playing it every single day. I know I've found my go-to tuner. Thank you so much, Mary Beth!
