Ivan worked across multiple custom projects and we had a great experience with all. He installed two sets of bookshelves (including one fireplace insert), a bathroom cabinet in an odd corner, and replaced/recessed our medicine cabinet. He was very professional and made sure to finish all projects to a high standard. It’s been about a month and all are holding up incredibly well - he has a great eye and I would recommend him to anyone!

Ivan did a fantastic job assembling and anchoring a Murphy bed for us! It was a big job and he had no problem spending the time it took to not only assemble the bed we bought, but also to anchor it the wall and make it flush, making it both safe and secure in our guest room/office as well as looking very neat! He took his time and wanted to make sure it was just right! We will absolutely use Ivan again for more jobs in the future!

I hired Ivan to do two built ins for the family room and one end cap (broom storage) for the kitchen.
It was a wonderful experience. His craftsmanship, designer’s eye and attention to detail really stood out. Ivan is a true craftsman that cares about the outcome. As a result, my built-ins are functional AND beautiful.
Now I have window seating, toy storage, book/display storage and a place for the brooms that is easily accessible. It all seamlessly blends in to the rest of the room. It’s just what I wanted.
He even had someone who could do the seating cushions for me, but I already had someone in mind…which is why they aren’t in yet. Maybe I should’ve gone with his person after all ;)
I can’t wait until our next project together.

We had custom built-ins added to a future nursery. I had sketched a very rough idea and Ivan was able to bring it to life. He was communicative and worked with us to adapt the cabinets to our older building. I would highly recommend for a future project!

Ivan did a fantastic job with our pantry/coffee bar project. We had been using an affordable shelving unit before we decided to try and bring the house together with something that fit our kitchen better.
Ivan took my rough sketch of what we wanted and was able to create a mockup, do an on-site survey, and source materials all within a few days of our initial request.
The installation went fantastically, and we couldn't be happier.
Overall, working with Ivan was a pleasure; he is a consummate professional and a good person to work with. We will definitely be coming back to him when we have other projects.
