Our Services
Shelf Installation
Custom shelving, floating shelves, and built-in shelf systems — level and secure.
Shelf Installation in NYC
Shelves sound straightforward, but a shelf that is not level, not anchored properly, or not aligned with the architecture of the room stands out immediately. We install floating shelves, bracket shelves, wall-mounted book cases, and modular systems like IKEA KALLAX and Billy — all level, all secure, all positioned where you want them.
We work with your wall type. In concrete high-rise buildings across Queens and Brooklyn, we use appropriate masonry anchors rated for the load. In drywall, we locate studs or use toggle anchors for heavy loads. No shelf we install will pull out of the wall.
Beyond basic shelving, we also handle more complex built-in style installations: garage shelving, laundry room organization systems, and closet shelf builds. If you want it on a wall and holding weight, we can make it happen.
What to Expect
- Wall type identified, correct anchors selected
- Height and spacing confirmed with you before drilling
- Bubble level verified on every shelf
- Load-tested before sign-off
- Dust and debris cleaned up

What Customers Say
“Helped me with a ton of projects: fixing a cabinet and putting it back together, hanging a projector, putting up a floating shelf, and more. Will hire again!”

“Serge is wonderful. He really cares about what he does and is so easy to work with. The quality of his work is excellent, and he even came up with new ideas that solved problems I was having. I am already planning to work with him on more jobs and will gladly recommend him to others. I was worried he wouldn't be as good as others because his price was lower — but he is really SUPER!”
