5/5 Stars – Exceptional Work & True Expertise! I hired Jono to tackle a challenging setup: evaluating an old CRT recessed built-in TV niche for structural integrity before mounting a heavy-duty 28-inch extension bracket and a 77-inch TV. Other installers (including Best Buy) refused to touch the project, but Jono approached it like a true professional. To determine what was behind the wall, Jono made a precise exploratory cut in the drywall and confirmed wooden studs behind two layers of drywall (hence why stud finders were not working); saving us from needing a much more expensive, invasive reinforcement project. Jono arrived completely prepared with all the right tools and knowledge and went above and beyond throughout the job: * Sourced extra-strong lag bolts to ensure maximum safety and strength. * Helped me assemble the TV, wall mount, and soundbar mount components. * Patched the exploratory drywall cut, sanded, and repainted the cabinetry underneath before finishing up. * Took painstaking care to ensure everything was perfectly centered, level, and clean. The entire setup is holding up rock-solid with zero issues. Jono has a wealth of construction and structural engineering knowledge, solves complex problems effortlessly, and works with great efficiency; he’s also interesting to talk with and made everything less stressful for me. Finding someone with this level of skill, care, and timeliness is rare. I’ll definitely be hiring him again for future projects around the house!

About Hollow Arch - Art_Design_Engineering_Fabrication
Hi, my name is Jono. I’m a former architect with nearly two decades of experience in product design, mechanical and structural engineering, and hands-on fabrication. My work has taken me around the world, creating everything from furniture and large-scale public art to Burning Man installations and custom architectural projects. For over 10 years, I managed metal shops in Brooklyn—handling everything from welding and design engineering to client relations and COO-level operations—producing work for high-end clients and celebrities while mastering a wide range of materials and methods. Now back in Nevada, I’ve established my own shop where I continue to build with the same dedication to detail, creativity, and problem-solving. Whether you need custom design, expert fabrication, CNC machining, welding, structural solutions, or simply high-quality repairs done right, I bring the rare ability to take projects seamlessly from concept to completion.
Reviews
Jono from Hollow Arch (hollowarch.com) promised a cat fence extraordinaire, and he delivered an excellent design with professional execution. I would highly recommend Jono for his design skills and ability to work with metal and wood in a very creative way. Thank you, Jono, for a job well done!
The stairs on our deck were deteriorating and had become a safety hazard. We found Hollow Arch on Thumbtack and reached out to Jono, who responded promptly and came out to provide a fair and reasonable estimate. He even went above and beyond by cutting up a fallen tree and repairing part of our fence at no extra charge. The new stairs are solid, well-constructed, and a huge improvement. I only wish we had hired him to rebuild the entire deck! We’ll definitely be reaching out to Jono again for our next project.
I asked Jono to create an aluminum frame to go around our fireplace so we could mount the TV. He did an excellent job fabricating the frame and have it finished. We'd happy use him again and have already recommended him to our neighbours. Give him a call!
