What Our Clients Says

Captain Max is a lifesaver. After another company cancelled on me at the last minute and I called him. He was working on another job across town but understood my urgency and said he would do his best to fit me in that day. A few hours later he was at my apartment! He did a great job hanging my window shades, I have a to-do list a yard long and I will use him for EVERYTHING!!! He is so easy to work with and communicate with. Don’t hesitate to call him and use him for all jobs small and large that you need done. He is a treasure.

Captain Max Patterson is a GEM! Captain Max just completed a closet renovation in my studio apartment. Captain Max had great ideas and suggestions for the 12 foot, three individual section closet! Captain Max custom built and installed shelves for the office section of the closet, assembled the dresser and anchored it the wall in the second closet and installed the clothing rods in the third closet. Captain Max removed the old shelving and baseboard moulding, repaired and painted, and added new moulding and shelving. I now have a beautiful, functional, updated and amazing wall closet!

I am already planning my next project for Captain Max! Captain Max is reliable, reasonable, personable and gets the job completed as scheduled! I HIGHLY recommend Captain Max!

Max fabricated a replacement of our custom bathroom door, including sourcing the original hardware and arranging the repair and refurbishing of the broken lock and painting and installing the new door.

From start to finish we found Max to be responsible, reasonable, and a master craftsman. We couldn’t be more pleased with his work and can recommend him wholeheartedly.

Max is an extremely talented carpenter whose work has made my small apartment’s storage solution grow exponentially. He listens to what you envision provides feedback and works with you to get you the solution you need and will love. He built a large linen closet which meshes well with my furnishings, He also built a desk top nook for my home office that houses all of my supplies. He is fast, friendly and reasonably priced. You will be very happy if you use the captain!!

Captain Max made a beautiful, custom loft bed and step ladder for us. I described to him what I had envisioned for the room, and he created exactly what I wanted. On installation day he and his employee were friendly, quick, efficient and professional. We now have double the living space in our bedroom which has been revolutionary! Would hire him again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend! Thank you Captain Max!

Max was a pleasure to work with. He was very responsive, patient with lots of questions, fair with price, and accurate in estimating the delivery of our new bookcases. We are delighted with the result and would happily hire him again for future projects.

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.

I accidentally broke our sink tile in my rental apartment, and our building super was rude and totally a rip off, so I decide to find my own handyman to do the job. I found Max and email him, got a reply within a few hours, he came in to inspect the project in a timely efficient manner, and I feel completely comfortable handling my sink with him! He is honest, polite, patient, friendly, and he helped me order the parts I need, and you feel like you can totally trust him. He end up doing an excellent job replacing our sink, I would totally hire him again & recommend him to all friend!

Max is very professional and polite – and really friendly. His work is impeccable. He holds himself to very high standards and this shows in his work. I hired Max to do work in both my home and my office. He is very dependable and reliable. In my home he built me a big set of shallow steps so that I could walk out my balcony door more easily. (It was a huge step up.) It is a great design and looks like an art installation on it’s own (that is what I wanted!) It is also free standing and not attached to the walls so the building had no problem. And at my request Max stained the piece with a particular type of stain for guitars that i found, so I could get the exact Cherry red color that I wanted. Gorgeous! Max also did some work in my kitchen and came up with some beautiful and innovative solutions to my having trouble fitting my new stove properly. In the process I was in the area of the Bronx where Max gets aluminum sized, so I offered to pick up the piece – and everyone that worked there from the boss to the guys on the floor to the cashier LOVED Max. They wouldn’t let me go because they were telling me stories about a stand-up guy that they would trust with anything. Max’s work goes beyond repairs and necessary pieces. He is an artist. He cam ego my office next and did a ton of handyman work, like tightening things and patching walls, reinforcing drawers and assembling furniture. But the best are my BIG RED STEPS!! I am looking forward to hiring Max to do many more projects – he has great suggestions. Whenever I describe a vision, he makes it happen in reality. It’s like I had my dream come to life! I’m so glad I found him!
