Handyman & Assembly Services · Birmingham, West Midlands · B30
Not everything comes from IKEA. Wayfair, Argos, Made, Oak Furnitureland, John Lewis and the unbranded units that arrive with a one-page diagram and three spare bolts — we build them all square, level and solid first time. Where the instructions are wrong (and on budget flat-pack they often are) we work it out rather than forcing it. High-rise and apartment work around the city centre is handled with lift bookings, floor runners and out-of-hours slots on request.

Local knowledge
Cadbury's model village of Arts-and-Crafts cottages set around the Village Green and Rest House. That housing mix shapes every flat pack assembly job we run in B30 — access, parking and the volume that actually comes out of a property.
Crews know the routes around Selly Manor and the Bournville Carillon, plan loading where residents' parking is tight, and work to the collection windows your street or building allows.
Day to day that means working around Bournville town centre traffic and station parking, using the main A-road links rather than narrow B30 back streets, and booking council recycling-centre slots in advance where waste has to be tipped. Rea Valley damp holds green algae to render bases and north-facing garden walls.
Not listed? We cover the whole of the West Midlands — ask and we'll confirm the next available slot.
On the ground in Bournville
A flat pack assembly in Bournville is priced on time and access, but it succeeds or fails on the fixing. With heritage timber frame, lath and lime dominant across Birmingham, that is not a detail we leave to chance on site.
Bournville landlords and letting agents book us between tenancies for bed frames, wardrobe repairs, re-hung blinds and re-fixed shelving — the small defects that hold up an inventory sign-off.
Bournville properties are predominantly heritage timber frame, lath and lime: conservation-area and listed stock — timber frame with wattle infill or lath, lime plaster finishes and irregular, out-of-true wall lines. That means hand-driven fixings into the frame wherever possible, breathable lime-compatible repairs, and no percussive drilling on historic fabric. Get it wrong and hammer action on lime plaster shells the face off in sheets, and on listed fabric an unauthorised fixing is a consent issue as well as a repair bill. On load, modest loads only unless we can reach the frame — we survey and tell you honestly before committing to a fixing. Our handyman carries the full fixing range in the van, so the substrate never turns into a second visit.
Rea Valley damp holds green algae to render bases and north-facing garden walls. For outdoor furniture, garden structures and anything fixed to an external wall in Bournville, that dictates the sealant, the ground anchor and the corrosion grade of the fixings we use.
Bournville is a Grade II conservation area, so any external fixing or visible alteration is checked against the Bournville Village Trust scheme conditions before we start.
Every Bournville visit is billed from a one-hour minimum then in 30-minute increments, with no call-out fee. If the list finishes early you pay for the time actually worked.
