Who needs piano technicians?

[Jon Page]

Move close to your parents. Start by looking in the town they live.
Don't make it an excursion for visiting.  Drop by often, say hi.

Look for a dealer in the area to assist with floor tunings, prep and field work
because it will be  s l o w   going at first.
