FR Review:
AVM Woodworking boasts a small company atmosphere and big company resources. References turn to the "well organized shop" for creative cabinetry for high-end residences. Project budgets fall between $5,000 and $400,000. Owner Alex Mendelis immigrated from Ukraine where he worked as a mechanical engineer in the aerospace industry. He has since launched his cabinetry company into the high-quality stratosphere with the help of a talented crew, a state-of-the-art shop and glowing referrals.
Mendelis manages all aspects of millwork production and installation closely, from programming machines in the shop to monitoring quality control in the field. Mendelis is considered a design-oriented millworker, but he's not the difficult artiste type: clients say he works well with both professionals and homeowners.
AVM serves the West LA, Santa Monica and Encino areas. Clients say that while the firm strives to keep costs earthbound, it goes out of its way to improve the integrity of design, finding unique hardware to complement its cabinets. AVM also offers a menu of finishes, performs veneering and presents samples and mock-ups for approval. With six full-time craftsmen, the company produces computer-generated drawings that architects and contractors appreciate. We hear the firm always stands behind its work.
Representative Client Comments:
"Whatever you want, he works with you." "Beautiful cabinetry." "He has done five high-end homes with me." "Higher-end jobs, tighter schedules." "Methodical. I can rely on him way more than the other guys."
