Alex did excellent work retro-fitting a custom built-in to fit my TV, and then mounting the TV. Short turnaround time, fair quote, clear expectations, and then performed on them. More importantly he was very careful and did quality work. I’d hire him again.

Alex is a master craftsman who pays attention to detail. He communicates well, helps you decide what will work best for your project, and does beautiful work. He repaired and restored the wood frame around our front door and painted everything for us and did it in a timely manner and was careful not to get paint and sawdust everywhere. He cleaned up after himself. He is a nice person and friendly and I am going to hire him again for a few additional jobs and have recommended him to friends as well. I’ve attached photos of before, during, and after. Highly recommend!
