Why us

Built Right, First Time.

Three things that separate a flat-pack you'll enjoy from one you'll be re-tightening every month.

  • 01

    Square & Anchored

    Tall dressers and bookcases get anchored to a wall stud the way the manufacturer says. That's the difference between a piece you forget about and a tip-over hazard.

  • 02

    Honest Time Estimates

    We've built enough of these to know how long they really take. You get a flat per-item quote, not a creeping hourly bill.

  • 03

    Cardboard Hauled Out

    We break down the boxes and stack them out by your recycling so you're not staring at a pile when we leave. It's the part no one else does.

Furniture Assembly, The Real Story.

If a neighbor in Mulino called and asked who handles furniture assembly without the headache, here's what we'd tell them. Flat-pack furniture has gotten a lot better over the last ten years, but the instructions are still written by someone in another country who's never used a Phillips driver. The real time-eaters aren't usually the assembly itself, they're the three steps you have to redo because step 14 told you the shelf you put in at step 6 was facing the wrong way. We've built enough of these to know which steps are critical and which ones the instructions skip.

A customer over in Molalla asked us a fair question last spring: "If I can do this myself, why would I pay someone?" Honest answer: a lot of folks can, and do. The ones who call usually fall into one of three buckets. They've got a stack of boxes from a move and don't want to lose a weekend. They tried one and ended up with extra parts and a wobble. Or it's something that really matters being built right, like a crib or a bunk bed for a kid. Those are the jobs we live for. The Dandy Handyman has assembled probably a thousand pieces by now, and the muscle memory makes a real difference.

One thing worth knowing: tall furniture has to be anchored. The Consumer Product Safety Commission reports a child is taken to the emergency room every 46 minutes from a furniture tip-over, and dressers are the biggest single cause. Every major manufacturer ships an anchor strap in the box, and the CPSC's "Anchor It" campaign at AnchorIt.gov is worth a read if you've got little kids. We anchor every tall dresser, bookcase, and wardrobe into a wall stud as a matter of habit, even if you don't ask.

Good to know

Furniture Assembly Questions.

Do you do IKEA furniture specifically?
All the time. IKEA is probably half of what we build in a given week. We know the cam-lock and dowel system, we've done Pax wardrobes, Malm dressers, Kallax shelves, and Hemnes beds enough times to do them in our sleep. Send us the model name and we can usually tell you how long it'll take.
What if I'm missing parts from the box?
It happens, and most manufacturers will ship the missing part free if you contact them with the order number and the part number from the instructions. We'll point out exactly which part is missing so you can request the right one. If we can keep working around it, we will; if not, we'll reschedule the finish for free once parts arrive.
Will you anchor the dresser to the wall?
Yes, every time, into a wall stud. Most major brands ship anchor straps in the box and we use them. If your home has plaster walls (common in older homes around West Linn's Willamette neighborhood), we may need a different anchor type and we'll have those on the truck.
Can you assemble a crib safely?
Cribs are one of the most important pieces to build right. We follow the manufacturer's instructions exactly, no shortcuts, and verify all hardware is tight and the mattress sits at the correct height for the baby's age. If the crib is used or hand-me-down, we check it against the latest CPSC standards before assembling.
Do you haul away the boxes and packaging?
We break down the cardboard and stack it neatly out by your recycling area or wherever you tell us. We don't take it off-site (that's a separate junk-removal service), but we get it out of your living space so you're not tripping over it for a week.
What about my office chair or treadmill?
Yes to both. Office chairs are usually 20 to 30 minutes. Treadmills and ellipticals vary a lot by brand; some are nearly done out of the box, others are a two-hour job. Send us a link or model number and we'll quote it specifically.
Is there a minimum I need before you'll come out?
Our minimum service call is one hour, so if you've got a single nightstand it's worth either lumping it in with other items or having us tackle a couple small to-dos at the same time. A neighbor in Canby had us assemble a desk and patch two drywall holes in the same visit and saved on both.
Can you assemble outdoor patio furniture?
Absolutely. Most patio sets are pretty straightforward but they often have a lot of pieces (especially modular sectionals). We do these in the spring and summer all over Oregon City and West Linn. If the boxes are still in the garage, we can move them out to the patio first, no problem.
