TL;DR: Paid $1,450 for piano repairs, got ghosted for nearly two months, and only got my piano back…read moreafter involving the police. I'm writing this review to warn others about a deeply troubling experience with Brandon Lewis, owner of Perfect Pitch Piano. After years of routine piano tuning without issue, I hired Brandon in April 2025 to refurbish the keyboard action of our Boston Grand Piano. He quoted $1,450 for the job, took the keyboard to his workshop, and accepted a deposit. Brandon picked up the piano action on May 12, 2025, and promised to return it by May 16. What followed was a string of missed appointments, broken promises, and excuses ranging from medical issues to weather delays. Despite paying the full balance, the refurbished keyboard was never returned. Communication became sporadic and evasive, and attempts to resolve the issue were met with silence or further delays. After weeks of trying to recover the keyboard, I had no choice but to file a police report. In researching Brandon further, I discovered multiple prior reviews from other customers describing similar fraudulent behavior. I strongly recommend reviewing recent feedback from other clients on his Yelp page, where similar complaints--including one involving a Steinway piano action--suggest a troubling pattern, not an isolated incident. The detective assigned to the case attempted to contact Brandon multiple times using all the phone numbers on file, but received no response. It wasn't until the detective left a message stating that charges would be pressed and an arrest warrant issued that Brandon finally returned the call. After much back and forth, Brandon agreed to return the piano action. He claimed he had been hospitalized, that his phone was stolen, and that Apple took an extended time to restore his credentials--hence his lack of communication. Ultimately, Brandon returned the piano action on July 7, 2025--nearly two months after the original promised delivery date. Please do your due diligence and consider alternative providers. What began as a routine service turned into a time consuming and frustrating ordeal.

I do not recommend Brandon. He came to me when I was looking for piano tuner on Dec. 2025, I…read morehad already booked one with another technician for the next day which was Christmas Eve for $185 but then timing was not working out well and he said he could come that day at 5 p.m. I agreed to that time. When I asked his price, He did not give me a price over the phone. Instead, hearing my player piano play over the phone while we talked, he said, "It sounds like you might need a bigger service - that would be for $385." I didn't agree with that diagnosis but I allowed him to come for that price to get my tuning done .- knowing he was $200 over the average price. The only price he quoted to me was the $385 without mentioning any other service.He came , sat down and did his thing without any commentary about my piano. After two hours he was finished and I I gave him my card for payment. However, he appears to be frustrated that the card did not process quickly and he left with my understanding that a receipt. would come in shortly which didn't happen. When I got my credit card statement, I saw he had charged me $709. without giving me a receipt at the time - saying his phone was too slow at processing it and he left. I protested the charge with Citi but he fought it with a bogus invoice or receipt that had my name at the top that he sent as his document, But... it had never been presented to me. He had never given that information to me. or explained anything about my piano. He just did his thing and took my card for payment but never showed me a balance because he said he couldn't get it finalized. I never got an invoice or receipt. This copy from Citi was the first I had seen of his prices - he had only quoted oe price to me verbally and I accepted that as his only price to come oit. I never agreed to a bigger service but maybe he didn't want to undertand that. I did accept the amount of $385 as it was the only price he had given me for my service. That was my complaint and the issue of my case. He then made up a bogus document that looked ;ike a receipt with my name at the top showing his charges and sent it to Citi. - forms documentation but it never was sent to me. The was the complaint. I never authorized the" bigger service" and never wanted or requested anything but a simple tuning. and he never made any comments as I expected about my piano. when he just did his own thing at the piano, About a week after he left., it was noticed that the tuning was not in tune. I reported it to him and he said sometimes it can change. I then had another technician come out and check it and they confirmed that it was not in tune. IT WAS NOT IN TUNE. He returned for his flashlight he had forgotten and HE TESTED THE TUNING, and confirmed that it was off. HE DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY OR SUPPLIES TO FIX IT, SO.. I agreed TO GO WITH HIM AND PAID THE $40 for the supplies he needed to fix it. The issue is that he is unprofessional and untrustworthy. I wanted the amount of the overage he charge reversed. I also felt that he took advantage of me - an 80 year old woman - to upsell me on a service that I did not understand and he never tried to explain to me or demonstrate a need for. Yet he charged my card for three services - one that was never mentioned, which totaled $324.00 over and above the amount I had authorized to be charged. He was angry when I disputed the $324 extra charge and threatened me because of it .

He might be good at what he does, but he charges a pretty penny ($1000) and then he surprises you…read morewith extra charges later. Had work done, then when we wanted to pick up our piano, he charged us another $100 just to be able to retrieve our own piano. He is also erratic in his behavior. One minute he is charming, the next minute he is livid. He also takes an hour to answer a 5 min question. Very temperamental. And once he has your piano, he's got you. He holds your piano hostage till you do what he wants.

Martins was able to give us a 2pm-4pm window (I called at 10am) and quoted $160 each time they had to come over (once to move it to the other room and another time to move it back). I asked if they could work with me on the price if we just left the piano upright for a day or two as the hardwoods cured, but they said price-wise it didn't matter. They called around 12:30pm and said they'd be here in 1.5 hrs (I live off 380/DNT), so I said great. 3 guys showed up and had our piano disassembled and moved within 5 minutes - amazing! They were worth every penny. However, after watching them do their work, I'll probably just get a bunch of friends to help me move the piano back into the other room. It looked relatively simple - just need to be strong! We asked if they did piano repair/maintenance since our brass casters are really worn to hell. They don't, but gave us a number to someone else. They also left us new casters with a double wheel and said when they come back in a few days to put back the piano, they can throw them on for us. How nice! PS, they don't take credit - only cash/check.

That's where Leon came in and absolutely saved the day! Not only did he offer same-day service, but he got everything done while my wife was out running errands -- so I got to surprise her with the most beautifully smooth, pitch-perfect piano she's ever played! The look on her face was priceless. What really sets Leon apart is how much he genuinely cares. He walked me through every single step of the tuning process, and as a bonus, even took a moment to give my sons a fun little lesson! How cool is that? If you need a piano tuner who is skilled, fast, friendly, and goes above and beyond, Leon is YOUR guy. 10/10 -- could not recommend him more highly!

I had not gotten it tuned since then and it was beginning to sound dull in both frequency and pitch. Leon took my call in the morning, scheduled same-day service and showed up promptly (15 minutes prior to his estimated 2 PM arrival time) at 1:45PM. Astute, talented, distinguished Gentleman with great conversational skills, tremendous and effortless ability, and an accomplished, respected, renowned pianist and professional tuner. Very reasonable per hour pricing. I was intrigued by the speed and efficiency of his technique as he patiently tuned each key with accuracy and precision in just under 90 minutes. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional piano tuner.
