Handyman & furniture assembly

Furniture still in its box? Start here

Before offering to assemble it, check the model, manufacturer's instructions and your own experience. These guides cover what to ask and what to agree on beforehand.

What should you check before offering furniture assembly?

Think about the furniture you've built, which steps you did yourself and where you needed help. A small table at home doesn't prepare you for every wardrobe. The model and manufacturer's instructions give you more to discuss than a broad handyman label.

Ask what is waiting in the box. Are all the parts there, has someone started assembling it, and what do they expect at the end? Carrying boxes, removing packaging and fixing furniture to a wall need separate agreement. An extra line in a message shouldn't silently add to what you agreed to do.

When does assembly need installation expertise?

Read the guide to getting started with furniture assembly to describe your experience and ask about the model. It also explains the difference between building a freestanding unit and attaching a shelf to a wall. Both may involve screws, but they need different knowledge.

Electrical work, gas, plumbing, work at height and specialist repairs are outside this guide and need an appropriate professional. If the manufacturer requires securing the piece, or another step you can't do, the furniture isn't ready for use. Find out who can complete that step rather than skipping it.

Questions & answers

I want to offer furniture assembly. Where should I start?

Read the furniture assembly guide. It helps you think through what you've built, check the model and manufacturer's instructions, and decide what to ask before agreeing.

Does assembly include fixing furniture to a wall?

Not necessarily. Check the product's requirements and what you know how to do, then agree separately on installation. If a required step such as securing the piece is missing, it isn't ready for use.

Are there handyman offers on this page?

Not yet. These are guides to read ahead of Tadam's launch, with Tel Aviv first. They don't replace the specialist knowledge needed for installation or repairs outside the guide.

What do you enjoy doing?

Tadam is getting ready to launch in Tel Aviv. Come see how the things you already know could help someone nearby.
