Handyman & Assembly Services · Birmingham, West Midlands · B13
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
Bohemian conservation village with Georgian and Victorian villas around Moseley Bog and Cannon Hill Park. That housing mix shapes every flat pack assembly job we run in B13 — access, parking and the volume that actually comes out of a property.
Crews know the routes around Moseley Bog (of Tolkien fame), 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 Moseley town centre traffic and station parking, using the main A-road links rather than narrow B13 back streets, and booking council recycling-centre slots in advance where waste has to be tipped. The Bog microclimate keeps Wake Green Road patios shaded and prone to red algae.
Not listed? We cover the whole of the West Midlands — ask and we'll confirm the next available slot.
On the ground in Moseley
A flat pack assembly in Moseley is priced on time and access, but it succeeds or fails on the fixing. With victorian solid brick with lath-and-plaster upstairs dominant across Birmingham, that is not a detail we leave to chance on site.
Moseley 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.
Moseley properties are predominantly victorian solid brick with lath-and-plaster upstairs: solid nine-inch red brick at ground level, with lath-and-plaster partitions and ceilings on the upper floors and original timber studwork around chimney breasts. That means long frame fixings that bite past the soft lime plaster into brick, plus timber screws into the lath studs where the wall is hollow. Get it wrong and plasterboard plugs pushed into century-old lime plaster pull straight back out, taking a dinner-plate of ceiling with them. On load, a properly fixed bracket into solid Victorian brick will carry any domestic TV or shelf load; the limit is the plaster, not the brick. Our handyman carries the full fixing range in the van, so the substrate never turns into a second visit.
The Bog microclimate keeps Wake Green Road patios shaded and prone to red algae. For outdoor furniture, garden structures and anything fixed to an external wall in Moseley, that dictates the sealant, the ground anchor and the corrosion grade of the fixings we use.
Moseley's tall Victorian villas mean high ceilings and long curtain drops — we bring podium steps rather than working off a chair, and never drill blind near cornices.
Every Moseley 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.
