How do you prepare for furniture assembly?
A simple nightstand, a large dresser and a bunk bed are different builds. Product links, drawer or door counts and manufacturer instructions help identify the right package. Make sure the complete parts are available and describe stairs, parking, room access or other constraints.
Our assembly process follows the manufacturer instructions, with parts and hardware organized before the build. We check alignment, drawers, doors and stability as applicable, then review the finished piece and its placement. This applies to the documented product and confirmed package scope.
See A Bunk Bed, Assembled for a completed furniture assembly example. The product and manufacturer requirements determine the scope for your own build.
Floor protection, packaging breakdown and a floor tidy are standard within the approved assembly scope. Moving, oversized uncrating, packaging haul-away and other selected extras are reviewed separately.
Catalog rates
Furniture assembly has a $149 service minimum. Item charges count toward it; the minimum is not added on top. The package descriptions and limits must match the actual product.
Quick items: $89 each.
Standard pieces with up to 3 drawers: $169 each.
Large pieces with 4–6 drawers or doors: $289 each.
Documented casework with 7–9 drawers, or a large L-shaped desk: $449 per unit.
Documented casework with 10–12 drawers or doors: $599 per unit.
Documented bunk, loft or storage bed: $599 per unit; manufacturer-required helper is included in that package.
Documented home fitness machine: $599, within the approved package exclusions.
Murphy bed with standard mounting to a compatible ordinary wall: $899; wall reconstruction is excluded.
What about anchoring or specialist furniture builds?
Anti-tip kits are $39 each where selected. Other supported packages include bounded game-table, outdoor playset and shed builds. These are specific packages, not open-ended custom construction; confirm the product and package limits.
Unknown, modified or excluded builds may need a separate $299 assessment. That visit is for assessment and does not include assembly. Do not assume a product can be fitted into a lower-priced category from its appearance alone.

Installed with intention
The care behind a finished space.
Thoughtful placement. Careful installation.
A single piece and a full gallery wall ask different questions. We consider the arrangement, the surrounding furniture and the way the space is used. Optional gallery layout planning is available when you would like help arranging the pieces.
