Working with Jan was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. He brought a level of professionalism and care to the installation of my closet system that exceeded every expectation. Not only was his craftsmanship impeccable, but he took the time to truly understand my needs and offered thoughtful suggestions that made a significant difference in the final result.
Jan was punctual, meticulous, and respectful of my space—qualities that are rare to find all in one person. He delivered incredible value, not just in the quality of the work, but in the way he showed up: with integrity, kindness, and attention to detail. It’s clear he takes pride in what he does, and that made all the difference.
I’m beyond pleased with my new closet and grateful to have worked with someone as reliable and talented as Jan. Highly recommend him to anyone seeking high-quality work and a genuinely positive experience.

Mr. Kickinger was truly an answer to prayer for a carpenter who did quality work installing a closet system and with whom I felt safe having in my home. His price was right for my budget. With each design issue, he consulted me. It's silly to be joyous over a closet, but I am. Thank you Jan.

had a fantastic experience working with Jan—he installed wall shelves in my home and did an absolutely excellent job. From the moment he arrived, he was professional, courteous, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. He took the time to measure and level everything perfectly, and the final result is not only sturdy but looks amazing. He worked efficiently, cleaned up after himself, and made the whole process seamless. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and would highly recommend Jan to anyone needing home installation services. Five stars all the way!

Jan did an excellent job installing our vanity. He was very fast to respond to our inquiries throughout the process. He was on time, prepared and precise. Left out space clean and neat. We would use his services again!

Jan did an outstanding job mounting my big TV in the living room! He was punctual, professional, and clearly experienced. The TV is perfectly centered and securely installed, and he even took the time to ensure the cables were neatly organized. I couldn’t be happier with the results. Highly recommend Jan for any mounting needs – 5 stars!
