Custom Radiator Cover

Moise created a custom designed radiator cover for my living room. I have no issues with the unit - the design is good, the construction is solid, and the workmanship is top notch. Throughout the process, I found Ben and Cara pleasant to deal with (if at times not as quick to respond as one might expect). The reason for my POOR review is simple. When installing the unit, Moise informed me that he would be installing a cleat. However, he failed to ask me for a picture of what was inside the wall before he began to drill, failed to use a stud finder, and even failed to simply walk to the other side of the wall to observe a built in toilet. As a result, his 4 drill into the wall pierced a brand new toilet bladder. While I understand mistakes happen (and he helped to stem the water flow), my frustration is that the company failed to help reimburse me for the re-work to repair the mistake his installation had caused (I suggested I cover the labour, his INSURANCE cover the bladder). I am simply amazed. I paid him in full for his work (that was well done) but had assumed he would help pay for the costly repairs (over 4 figures) that his mistake caused. There was no discussion or debate - simply an impolite no.

Custom Radiator Cover

Bensimon did an excellent work and Moise is a master carpenter. We are really pleased with the quality of the work, the installation and the lacquer finish. Cara kept us well informed about the completion and installation dates. I highly recommend Bensimon and will use them again.

Amazing - Created custom doors which also act as bookshelves

I came to Moise with a very custom job - creating bookshelves that would also function as doors. He brought a ton of skill and thought to the job, figuring out how to make them work as both shelves and doors, managing the swinging mechanism, and even finding a way for a hidden door lock which could be opened by pulling down on a book. He came by for multiple visits to fine-tune the work (at no cost) and was invested in making my project work well. My kids love them and they're arguably my favourite part of my house. I would not hesitate to work with him again, and I have recommended him to other friends who want to duplicate his work.

Desk/Wall Unit for Son's Room

It is such a pleasure working with people like Moise, Cara and team. They are professional, perfectionists, creative and just nice people. Moise took my vision, tweaked and improved on it, and then brought it to life. Beautifully! We love the final product and we look forward to working together on our next project!

custom built in for our daughter's room

We hired Moise to redo our twin daughters bedroom with custom built beds, night table and bookcase. His work is impeccable and the finished work matched exactly to the drawing. Every step of the way, we were part of the process and always felt in good hands with Moise.
