I wrote a review and it vanished. Ok, Alex is wonderful. He is so talented in furniture design and furniture making, and he’s an artist! He took a piece of brand new furniture and reduced the size to fit my space. His workmanship is impeccable. We shared ideas, and his knowledge and vision helped create a usable piece of furniture for me.

Alex is a true artist. He restored 1930’s art deco bedroom pieces to what I imagined they looked like when they were bought 90 years ago. The restoration was impeccable and his level of professional is exceptional. He was easy going, respectful and kind. When my brother saw the finished pieces he called him the “wood whisperer”. Thank you, Alex and Inwill be

Alex helped fix my bed, which turned out to be a very complicated project. He handled it with great professionalism and skill. He is clearly very knowledgeable and knew exactly what to do, even when the task became tricky. I really appreciate his attention to detail and the quality of his work. Highly recommended if you need someone reliable and experienced!
