About Us

Welcome to Reperatie Bouw-Maxim. Learn about our journey, our commitment to quality, and how our 20 years of experience can benefit your Amsterdam home. We're glad you're here to discover the difference we can make.

My Story

With nearly 20 years of hands-on experience in construction and renovation across Europe, I bring both precision and practicality to every Amsterdam home I work on. My background—from building hotels in Poland to restoring canal houses in Haarlem—has taught me how to combine modern efficiency with respect for traditional Dutch design.

For example, one recent project involved transforming a narrow Amsterdam bathroom into a bright, waterproof space with hidden storage and improved ventilation. My experience allowed me to anticipate the building’s older plumbing and insulation challenges, saving the client both time and unnecessary costs.

Every project I take on benefits from that same balance of European craftsmanship, local knowledge, and personal care—ensuring your renovation is done right the first time.

Our Core Values

At Reparatie Bouw-Maxim, every project is built on four core values: honesty, craftsmanship, reliability, and respect.

Honesty means transparent communication—clear pricing, realistic timelines, and no hidden surprises.

Craftsmanship reflects years of experience across Europe, ensuring every detail is done with care and precision.

Reliability is about showing up, keeping promises, and finishing on time, no matter the size of the job.

Respect guides how we treat your home and your time, always working neatly and with minimal disruption.

These values shape every step of our process. From the first conversation to the final clean-up, clients know they can expect personal attention, professional quality, and a trustworthy partnership that makes renovations smooth and stress-free.

What to Expect

When you choose Reperatie Bouw-Maxim, you can expect a seamless and stress-free renovation experience. From the initial consultation to the final touches, we prioritize clear communication, meticulous attention to detail, and a commitment to exceeding your expectations.

We believe that every home deserves honest work and lasting quality. Our goal is to build not just structures, but also relationships based on trust and mutual respect. Let us bring our expertise and passion to your next project and transform your vision into reality.

"Every home deserves honest work and lasting quality."

Maksym, Owner of Reperatie Bouw-Maxim

About me

Maksym Lezhakov

Originally from Ukraine, I've been working in the construction industry since 2010. My journey began in Poland, where I specialized in kitchen design and furniture installation, before moving to the Netherlands, where I've been perfecting my craft for the past 5 years.

 

I started as an assistant builder working alongside architect Henk Rekers, where I learned the fundamentals of structural work, electrical systems, and heating installations. Over the years, I've managed teams and built hotels, restaurants, and private homes, gaining expertise in every aspect of construction.

 

Currently based in Haarlem, I work as a private entrepreneur specializing in home renovations throughout the Randstad. My experience with Dutch building standards, combined with my international background, allows me to deliver quality work that meets local requirements while bringing fresh perspectives to every project. 

 

As a married father of one, I understand the importance of creating functional, comfortable living spaces. I don't drink alcohol or use drugs, ensuring clear judgment and reliability on every project. My family values drive my commitment to treating your home with the same care I'd give my own.
