About
I have been a handyman, including carpentry, custom furniture building, and construction work for over 30 years. Quality, punctuality, and respect, that's what my business is built on. I like to solve non-standard tasks and bring joy to people from my work. I always try to help, whether it’s solving a complex task or offering helpful advice. My goal is to bring satisfaction and make every project a success. I specialize in assembling furniture, wall hangings, repairs, and handling any other handyman tasks, as well as assembling outdoor constructions like gazebos or sheds, and building or repairing decks and porches. I come fully equipped with all the necessary tools, ensure the workspace is left clean and tidy, and offer a 30-day guarantee on my work. *** If you would like me to do the shopping for you, there is an additional $100 fee for this service.

Alex is excellent and I highly recommend. He even has insurance with a COI and can work in CoOP buildings. I will use him again - and probably soon. He created a room for our daughter without building a wall - combo of bookshelves and curtains.

Details: Wall to an existing room • No, I do not need plumbing or electrical lines installed • No, I do not need drywall applied • Multi-unit building

I was so happy with Alex’ work installing a soundproof wall and door in our home in Brooklyn. His work was very precise, and of the highest quality. He worked with me on identifying the very best materials and was willing to be flexible with our schedule. He works fast, yet carefully, and never cuts corners. Will use him again if he isn’t too famous and high prices for our budget by then. Nicest guy in the world btw. Can’t recommend enough.

Details: Door • Walls • New custom building or construction • Residential

Thank you so much, Ben! I really appreciate your thoughtful feedback — it truly means a lot. It was a pleasure working with you, and I’m glad we found the right materials to get the results you were looking for. I’m always happy to stay flexible and make the process as smooth as possible. I’m here anytime you need help. Looking forward to the next project!
