    Our 65 inch tv in the wall

    Found Alex through a neighbor, what a find. Reached out about assembling a wall tv mount and tv. He got right back, showed up on time, and was amazingly professional and accurate. Eye for detail, we never doubted him. Will be using his services again!!

    Alex built us three custom frames for the AC units in our home. This allows for the units to sit at the top of the window and doesn't put them out of commission. In addition to being entirely functional, he managed to make our units look sleek. These frames match the rest of our aesthetic perfectly. His work is meticulous and well-executed. Throughout the entire process, Alex was incredibly professional, pleasant, and prompt. We're so very pleased with both the service and product we received when we booked Alex. I cannot recommend his services highly enough! You won't regret hiring him.

    Alex Can Help is an Amazing Individual!!!! Thanks so much for coming in the middle of a non stop project to repair our rocker recliner massage chair. It's brand new, had it assembled by someone else who did a poor job. Alex, thanks for saving the day once again. My husband can really relax in that chair: best gift I ever got him.

    Hi Alex. I'm in east harlem and need my one bedroom apartment mouse-proofed - appliances pulled out and any holes and points of access patched. Is this something you can do? Thanks, Jennifer

    Yes. I sent a message. I can be reached at 646-854-9773

    White-Glove Service from Start to Finish!…read more We had an excellent experience with DAS Furniture Assembly & Installation, and I can't recommend them highly enough. They built custom shelving for a built-in storage closet used to support heavy glassware and china for events and hosting. From the very beginning, Dean, the owner, stood out immediately. While several handyman companies responded to my inquiry, Dean was the only one who offered a complimentary site visit so his team could fully understand the scope of the project and take precise measurements of the existing shelving. That alone gave me confidence that DAS would take our project seriously. Dean was extremely responsive and communicative every step of the way. After the site visit, the quote we received felt thoughtful, fair, and clearly tailored to our needs, not a generic estimate. As the workplace coordinator, I truly appreciated how easy it was to coordinate details like insurance, loading dock access, and a very specific installation timeline. DAS worked seamlessly with our schedule and completed the entire project within a week, at a time that minimized disruption to the office. The quote, invoice, and payment process were all clear, straightforward, and professional, which made everything stress-free. While a member of the DAS team handled the consultation, Dean himself came on installation day, completed the work, cleaned as he went, and even disposed of the old shelving. The attention to detail and care taken with our office space really reflected a white-glove level of service. Dean is friendly, professional, clearly very experienced, and it's obvious from speaking to him that DAS handles a wide range of office logistics and setup projects with skill and pride. The finished shelving is sturdy, beautifully done, and exactly what we needed. Outstanding experience from start to finish! I'll absolutely be using DAS again for future projects and recommend them without hesitation. Thank you Dean and team for making my job easier and delivering such high-quality results!

I reached out to Eric, the owner, and pretty much a half hearted apology but essentially told I was shit out of luck. If they are putting hardware on your PAX system, I would be careful, they might ruin your doors Here is my story IDA Flatpack were super accommodating to send someone on Friday evening to assemble my PAX after Ikea screwed me over by not delivering that Thursday. Unfortunately he forgot his stencil or something to assist him with putting the handles on the door, so requested to come back Sunday to finish the job. Not a problem. On Saturday my husband and I level our closet, and place the PAX exactly where we wish it to go in the room Sunday, Nate comes and puts the handles on. I go to check the handles, and they are obvious to the naked eye they are uneven. I tell Nate and he tried to square up the doors. At the ends, even with his best efforts, something was off, but he told us unless he drilled new holes, that was the best he could do. After Nate left, we discovered that he had moved our PAX a few inches over, I'm not sure why. All the work my husband and I went through to level and ensure the closet was correct was for nothing, it took us another half hour / hour after Nate left to square the closet (now with clothing), it was a total waste of time. I am most displeased with how the handles look, from the outside and inside. I am attaching pictures so you can see what looks to be a mess from both the outside of the closet and the inside. The outside you can the screws, and the inside of the closets looks like the hole was drilled several times because he couldn't get the right placement. I am highly disappointed at this. The doors are ruined. I expected much more professional work from someone who does this all the time. If I had known this would be the result, I would not have let him near the handles of the PAX. Nate was pleasant and great, but his work at the end really did not hold up for what I think you would expect when you send someone out to do a job.

Brian is a reliable, courteous, pleasant assistant to Fabio. This is who you want to hire: a talented, local business owner who does the work himself, with caring family members helping him. Fabio and Brian showed up exactly on time. It turns out my job was much more extensive than expected (because the previous sofa disassembler did awful work and destroyed the wood inside the sofa). Fabio did this extra work with grace, expertise, and great pride. And he didn't try to charge me extra for any of the work, which I hugely appreciated. I'm glad I had tip money ready. I hope you will too, because you'll feel it's well-deserved.

I felt safe with my conversation with him and the fact that he gave me a clear quote (you can see below why this was important to me). He was able to show up the next day cuz he actually was close to my neighborhood . He broke down my 78 in beige sofa, in a stairwell, in about 20 minutes . He showed up on time, he got right to work! The sofa was in my apartment in a matter of 35 minutes . A sofa that took two movers and my dad and his worker over the span of a weekend lol. Favio did it in 35 minutes! Of course Him and Brian reassemble to the sofa . Favio wanted me to sit on the sofa to make sure it didn't creek because he does offer a lifetime warranty . I had originally called the couch doctor and received a quote for anywhere between $375 and $750. My communication with the owner didn't feel good. I asked questions via text that he couldn't answer, so I'd have to call him to get the answers. And I didn't want someone to show up to my place who will now just randomly charge me $800 because they couldn't know the price until they saw the sofa and actually broke it down which would leave me in a place of desperation. I didn't feel safe with the couch doctor. I highly recommend couch SURGEON!
