Visit matthewjenkinshandyman.com for more information. My business started in mid-2018 after working over four years at IKEA. I decided to establish my own handyman and assembly venture. I've always been crafty; the first time I realized this at twelve years old when my father took apart the dashboard of our Camry from 1985 and it remained that way for an extended period until I dedicated a day to reassemble without a manual. I've loved crafting furniture and have created my own pieces for my house, and now I’m starting to craft custom pieces for clients. I specialize in retrofitting wardrobes using the IKEA PAX system, but I can assemble different kinds of products.

Before this, I served as a manager at IKEA for over four years in sales. I’ve built all kinds of products in that store, and I can provide advice if there are issues, and I can help navigate your request, and navigate the frustrations of their customer support line and delivery issues.

I specialize in tailored closet setups. I can work with plaster walls, and you won’t need to remove baseboards, and I can incorporate crown molding for a built-in look.

When it comes to furniture setup, I handle general handyman work, especially wood-related tasks. I identify as an social nerd. I’m confident in my skills, but I don’t take on tasks I can’t handle or try new techniques on your time. That’s what my home is for on innovative ideas before offering those capabilities to you. Furthermore, being from the East Coast, so I can refer you to others who can help.

Mathew was recommended by to us by someone. We had a large ikea closest order and we had a horrible experience by a previous ikea contractor on a previously installed order. Mathew was responsive and punctual. He has best product knowledge compare with other vendors I had experienced. He even took it upon himself to exchange parts couple of times. Built me a custom platform as well. At the end we had a perfectly lined up closets and doors. And in process to get me a custom cabinets. Thank you Mathew and crew for your honesty and perfection. You have a customer for life.

Professional, personal, and takes great pride in his work! Have used Matt to hang a heavy flat screen tv, and wall shelves. 2 different times. He made sure he went above and beyond by adding wood to the project to reassure the stability as the wall studs were not where they needed to be and the flat screen is old and very heavy! Will always use him and plan to again in the very near future!

We had a great experience with Matt! We Hired Matt to install 4 closets (3 reach in and 1 Master). The job also required the demo of the old closet and some patching of the wall. Matt did a great job. Matt shows up on promised time. Completely self-sufficient (with all the tools) he kept his work area clean and when he was all he done packed up and cleaned everything up himself as if he'd never been there. Comes up with innovative ideas as well. He has a great attitude. Great job, quick, well priced! Highly recommended!

We ordered a four-piece wardrobe with sliding glass doors from IKEA that was 11.5' long, shelving and drawers, etc. It would have taken my husband and I at least 4 full days to assemble it. Matt, with his experience and expertise, had it assembled in one day, even dealing with my on-site changes with enthusiasm. I highly recommend Matt for your furniture assembly and install!

Matt was great! Very easy to work with. Super responsive. Cleaned up nicely while working. We had a pax and dresser built without any problems. Even went out of his way to take his shoes off!! Would highly recommend and am definitely going to use his services again.

I hired Matthew to install IKEA closet organizers in my bedroom closets. I initially hired him for the guest bedroom reach in closet and he did an excellent job.

I was so impressed that I contracted him to do the master bedroom walk in closet. He even assisted in the design of the closet. Specifically, he suggested to install without the back panels so the cedar walls would show through. It was a great suggested because it looks better than I could hope for.

For both jobs he was punctual, efficient and cleaned up the work site afterwards.

He is one of a very few contractors I would recommend and hire again. He maintains a high level of pride in his workmanship and he is very good at what he does.

Amazing service! I was referred to Matt from one of the sales guys at Ikea. I am very picky and I really appreciate someone who takes their job seriously with honesty. I have his contact saved for future job as I couldn't be happier with his service and his helper Joshua is just as good. They will leave your place clean and making sure you are happy with their job. Totally worth it! The best

I had a horrible experience at Ikea with my Pax closet system.

The system itself is terrific, but the process of ordering, delivering and
Especially set up was a nightmare.

Which is why having Matthew Jenkins enter the scene was our saving grace.

Matthew stepped forward and orchestrated the complete coordination and set up
of our system, utilizing his background as both a past employee of Ikea, and his talents
as a handyman, specializing in bookcases, closets and television units.

Not only was he extremely reliable, he listened to what we wanted the finished product to be, and made suggestions on how our vision could become reality, and then proceeded to made it happen.

I cannot suggest him strongly enough; Matt is a pro, and if you find yourself having the horror I went through with Ikea, Matthew will be your angel, as he was ours.
