I worked with Max to install special custom hardware for an apartment I renovated. Max did the job on time and on budget. The work was done well. I look forward to working with him again.

Max did a fabulous job on a loft bed for us. We asked two loft bed specialists to do the job before him. One cancelled five appointments over the course of two months. One clearly only knew how to construct a traditional, cookie cutter loft bed. We wanted something wall to wall in a maid’s room. Max not only did a great job but was extremely responsive and professional. My one minor complaint is that the guys he hired to help him with the installation gave less attention to detail than I would have liked on the paint job. We’re happy with the construction.

Second time I’ve used Captain Max. First to refinish maple dining room table. This time to cut a hole in the back of a kitchen cabinet. Both times knowledgeable, timely, did the jobs quick because he had the right tools at his fingertips. Price reasonable. He is a seasoned professional.

A few years ago, Max built some great bookshelves for our apartment in NYC. Today he helped me out by installing some sliding shelves in our under-counter kitchen cabinets. He does wonderful work, and is a real pleasure to deal with. And very engaged with the upper Manhattan community.

This review is long overdue however, I would be remiss if I didn't write something. I had an ikea wood table top that needed to be refinished due to food having spoiled and penetrating the wood. Max was honest and upfront about the cost. He even gave me a discount which I sincerely appreciate. The ugly stain was removed and then refinished to protect my table. Would definitely recommend him. He is reliable, flexible and genuinely nice man.

Max is a consummate professional. I ordered a kitchen table and benches that were way too big for my space and he came, picked it up and sized everything down beautifully. You would never know it was altered. He delivered it back to me sooner than expected. Terrific to work with.

Max is the consummate professional! He and his team did a wonderful job in designing, building, and installing a series of built-in bookcases. Not only is the craftsmanship of the finished project of the highest standard, Max himself is responsive, friendly, and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended.

After having an antique chair that I wasn't able to sit in for 10 years, Max reglued and repolished it so that as he said “the joints are now stronger than the wood”. My refurbished chair is now as good as new …if that can be said for a 100+ year old chair. Max did a great job!
