Handyman & Assembly Services · Birmingham, West Midlands · B23
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
North Birmingham high-street town with 1930s Corporation housing and Victorian villas along Sutton Road. That housing mix shapes every flat pack assembly job we run in B23 — access, parking and the volume that actually comes out of a property.
Crews know the routes around St Barnabas Church and Erdington Abbey, 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 Erdington town centre traffic and station parking, using the main A-road links rather than narrow B23 back streets, and booking council recycling-centre slots in advance where waste has to be tipped. M6 spray and brake-dust deposits build heavy at the Tyburn Road junction, greying kerbside slabs.

On the ground in Erdington
A flat pack assembly in Erdington is priced on time and access, but it succeeds or fails on the fixing. With 1930s cavity brick with gypsum plaster dominant across Birmingham, that is not a detail we leave to chance on site.
Erdington 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.
Erdington properties are predominantly 1930s cavity brick with gypsum plaster: interwar semis and Corporation housing built as brick cavity walls, skimmed in gypsum, with joists running front-to-back at 400mm centres. That means nylon plugs into the outer leaf for light loads, and long cavity-spanning frame fixings for anything that cantilevers off the wall. Get it wrong and a fixing that only grips the plaster skim and the first 15mm of brick will sag within weeks once a load is hung on it. On load, good for heavy fixings provided the fixing reaches the brick — we always drill through the skim, never into it. Our handyman carries the full fixing range in the van, so the substrate never turns into a second visit.
M6 spray and brake-dust deposits build heavy at the Tyburn Road junction, greying kerbside slabs. For outdoor furniture, garden structures and anything fixed to an external wall in Erdington, that dictates the sealant, the ground anchor and the corrosion grade of the fixings we use.
Erdington's 1930s semis have side access to the rear, which makes garden furniture, sheds and gym equipment straightforward to deliver without going through the house.
Every Erdington 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.
