Included in every visit — and what is not
Book flat-pack furniture assembly with the product name or link, quantity and intended room. Wardrobes need space to lay out panels and raise the unit; desks and dining sets need clearance for doors, drawers and chairs after assembly.
IKEA, Argos, Wayfair and other flat-pack beds, wardrobes, desks, chairs, storage and gym equipment can be included. Have the instructions and complete parts ready. Mention manufacturer two-person handling and anti-tip requirements; fitted joinery and packaging removal are separate.
Always included
- Parts checked against the instructions

- Doors, drawers and sliders aligned
- Wall anti-tip strap fitted where supplied
- Packaging gathered and flattened
Not part of this service

“The movers handled my furniture with care and professionalism. They disassembled and assembled our wardrobe really quickly. And shout out to the young men who had to carry our very heavy cabinet up the stairs!”
Barry Tam
“Used this company for assembly of a pair of sliding mirrored IKEA doors on a cupboard. I normally enjoy my DIY and assemble things myself but these are very complex and tricky to put together, especially if you are on your own. The guys arrived on time, were friendly & polite, they assembled the doors and even fixed the cupboard to the wall in good time and end result looks amazing. Thank you Hellohandy!”
Menelaos Tzafetas
“I had the dismantling and reassembly of my large corner wardrobe. Sulltan and Adam were amazing, they were VERY fast, and were keeping me in the loop along the way. Very impressed with the service, and they also moved an old wardrobe for me too. They even offered to fix another item that I hadn't asked because they were so helpful. Would highly recommend.”

All Types of Assembly Services — frequently asked questions
Do you assemble IKEA furniture?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair and most flat-pack brands. Send the product name and we will confirm a realistic build time.
Can you take the packaging away?
We flatten and gather packaging so it is easy to deal with, but removal is not part of the visit. Arrange packaging clearance separately if needed.
What if a part is missing from the box?
We will build everything we can and tell you exactly which part to request from the retailer. A short return visit can finish the build once it arrives.
Will you fix the unit to the wall?
Yes, where an anti-tip strap or bracket is supplied and the wall allows it. This matters for tall units in homes with children.
How many hours should I book for a wardrobe?
A hinged wardrobe is usually around two and a half hours for one person. Sliding-door wardrobes take longer and are easier with two.
Can you assemble several items in one visit?
Yes, and it is the most cost-effective way to book. Add up the guide times above and book the closest number of hours.
