I tell customers that it is better to have one tuner. Different 
tuners tune differently
in regards to pin setting and stretch. I find that it takes two 
tunings to get the piano
'back' to my style.

I used to get a call from one lady every few years. I seemed that she liked to
'spread the wealth' and give every tuner in the area a turn. The 
piano was always
dreadful but after a few of my sessions she realized that my tunings 
lasted longer
and had me tune consecutively for a few years, then she moved.

I had the situation again recently and told the owner to pick a 
tuner, if she insisted
on multiple tuners, count me out. Not just for tuning stability but for service
and maintenance.

Regards,
