The grand piano had some slight damage to the action when I bought it (it had been stored poorly and mishandled by the liquidator who had it.) He was able to go back to his shop and fabricate the piece needed, and now the instrument is concert quality. He made sure I understood how to keep the humidity level just right for the sound board; how to clean and polish the exterior; and everything else I needed to know. His fees are so incredibly reasonable, it will surprise you!
Description of Work: Mr. Bonner is a real pro. I bought a grand piano, and hired him to move it. He came highly-recommended by friends; they did not steer me wrong. Once he got it into the house, he tuned it, and then came back 30 days later to fine-tune it again. If you need someone who REALLY knows what he's doing, give him a call.

I called Mr Bonner on Monday 5/14. He returned my call that nite. We set up an appointment for Wednesday 5/16 at 1:30pm. On 5/16 Mr Bonner arrived at 1:30pm and began to tune the piano which had not been tuned for 28 years. He was very thorough; he went through the entire keyboard three times. He also took the time to look up the date and place that the piano was manufactured and told me that the piano was made in Huntington, Indiana in 1911 and was the 37th piano made by that company in 1911. He is a very personable and efficient person. I was well pleased with his work and I enjoyed talking to him. I'll call him again next year.

It went very well. We were most satisfied with our experience.
Description of Work: Bob tuned our Steinway grand piano after a move. He responded immediately to a call for service (often rare in this business) and came on time on the appointed date. He spent over an hour tuning the piano and the results are most satisfactory. He is a very pleasant person to work with and we would definitely use him again. We were delighted to learn he also moves pianos and will call him when that time comes. Overall, a very positive experience.

Requested service to move piano to new residence. Prompt and reasonable estimate. Although runninglate from previous appointment, called in advance to advise. Moving piano between locations was a snap! Won't use anyone else if we need to move the piano again!

Wonderful! Bob was able to schedule our piano move and tune on relatively short notice in the midst of his busiest time of year. He kept me informed of scheduling conflicts due to weather and other customer issues, and the move went very well. We were able to provide assistance at both sites, which helped keep the cost low. He also tuned the piano following the move - it sounds better than it ever has. Bob is so nice and very professional, and his price was far below what I expected to have to pay. I would definitely call on him in the future. As a side note, I was bragging on Bob to several friends and found out that they have been using him to tune their pianos for years - all had wonderful things to say about him too.

Wonderful!!! I was amazed at how smoothly the whole event went.
Description of Work: I called on Monday to ask about moving a piano, and he scheduled it for the next day! Mr. Bonner drove from Indianapolis to Bloomington and dismantled our family baby grand and loaded it into his truck and drove it to Indianapolis. Once he arrived here, he carefully moved it into my home and put is back together. Then he tuned the baby grand - which desperately needed it! He also tuned our upright piano. He gave me discounts for the move because I was having two pianos tuned. The entire experience went off without a problem! Very nice to work with. I will have him tune my pianos in he future. Very knowledgeable, also.

I called to first find out if they moved pianos outside of the Indianapolis area. They said yes and called back with an exact estimate for the cost based on the distance of the move. We scheduled a date for delivery. On the day of the move, Bob called me in the morning to confirm everything was still on. After picking up the piano in Covington, he called to let me know his estimated time of arrival. He delivered the piano and set it up. We were very happy with the service he gave us.
Description of Work: Travelled from Indianapolis to Covington Indiana to pick up baby grand piano and move it to Indianapolis.

Bob returned my call the next day and scheduled the work the next week. He showed up on time, spent about an hour working on the piano and it looks and sounds great. I feel his price was extremely reasonable, considering everything that needed to be done. He also offered to provide a list of piano teachers in my area and mail me additional replacement key tops (the previous owner gave me all but 5 tops from the keys that needed them).
Description of Work: Bob tuned and repaired my recently purchased (used) piano. He replaced key tops, fixed 3 broken keys and corrected the pitch since the piano hadn't been tuned in many, many years.

He was always promt, very professional, and there were no negative aspects to this engagement.
Description of Work: I contacted Mr Bonner originally to get my piano moved from one room to the next so that hardwood floors could be installed. We also agreed that he would tune the piano after moving it back, and he did some repair work on the bass strings. He was much more reasonable than other piano movers I have used in the past, although his main work is tuning and other work. He did a great job, and gave my son a lot of information about our piano, and other aspects of repairs. I will definitely hire him again.

Chris did a fantastic job at tuning my piano. Because the piano had not been tuned in years it was a little extra but normally it would not be that much. I could not think of using anyone else to tune my piano!
