Wrong parts inside the box, missing hardware, pre-drilled holes that do not align, and stripped cam-lock threads are the most frequent complaints. Particleboard panels sometimes arrive chipped or swollen at the edges. Drawer runners can stick if the carcass is twisted during assembly. Stop the job when parts do not match the manual, since forcing joints usually cracks the panel or splits the dowel seat.
Ask for a written guarantee covering workmanship for at least 30 days. The guarantee should cover loose joints, misaligned doors, or fallen shelves under normal use. It should not cover damage from misuse, moving the item, or pets. Confirm whether follow-up visits are free or charged. Keep the invoice, the item list, and the technician's contact details for future reference.
Clear the room where the item will sit, including nearby furniture. Keep the original box, all hardware bags, and the instruction manual within reach. Identify where wall anchors will be needed and mark stud positions if known. Make sure there is a power socket nearby for cordless drills. Good preparation often cuts the total visit time by 20 to 30 percent.
Tall furniture must be anchored to the wall to prevent tipping, especially in homes with children. The pro should locate studs in plasterboard walls using a detector, then fix the unit with brackets or anti-tip straps rated for at least 50 kg of pull force. On brick or concrete, a hammer drill and 8 mm wall plugs are used. Never anchor tall pieces with just drywall anchors.
Demand peaks after holidays, in early autumn, and around back-to-school weeks. Booking 1 to 2 weeks ahead is normal during these periods. Same-day or next-day slots are often possible in slower months. Morning appointments tend to arrive on time more reliably than late afternoon ones. Confirm the arrival window by text or message the day before the visit.
Missing parts are the most frequent issue, especially dowels, cam locks, and screws. Damaged panels with chipped laminate or split MDF often appear on second-hand flat-pack items. Misaligned drawer runners and warped back panels cause doors to sit unevenly. Some customers find the printed manual missing pages or written in a foreign language. Ask how the provider handles these cases before work starts.
Open and close every drawer and door at least 5 times to confirm smooth travel. Push the unit gently from the side; it should not wobble. Place a spirit level on the top edge; the bubble should sit centred both ways. Check that all cam locks are fully tightened by trying to rock each panel. Photograph any visible chips before the pro leaves the room.
A small bedside table usually takes 20 to 40 minutes. A standard 4-door wardrobe takes 2 to 4 hours. A 6-seater dining table takes 1.5 to 3 hours. A king-size bed frame with slats and storage drawers takes 90 to 150 minutes. A wall-mounted bookcase can take 3 to 5 hours. Time increases when parts are pre-damaged or instructions are missing.
Tall furniture must be anchored to the wall to prevent tipping, especially in homes with children. A proper fix uses a stud finder, appropriate anchors for the wall material, and a bracket supplied or fitted by the technician. Drywall anchors differ from masonry plugs. Ask which anchor type will be used and whether the price includes the bracket. Poor fixing is a common accident cause.
Demand rises in the 2 weeks before Christmas, around Black Friday, and during the September back-to-school window, so book at least 10 to 14 days ahead. Midweek slots are usually cheaper than Saturdays. Confirm a 2-hour arrival window rather than a fixed time, since previous jobs often run long. Reschedule at least 24 hours before to avoid cancellation fees of up to 50 percent.
