What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site

  • Flat-pack beds, dressers, desks, shelving, cribs and patio sets assembled to the manufacturer's instructions
  • Dressers, bookcases and tall units anchored to the wall with the included tip-restraint hardware
  • Boxes broken down and packaging hauled to your recycling so the room is guest-ready

How it works

  1. Confirm the items, rooms and the deadline (guests, a new baby, a move-in) when you call
  2. Inventory parts and hardware against the instructions before starting, so missing pieces surface early
  3. Assemble, level and anchor each piece, then test drawers, doors and hinges
  4. Referred out: furniture with built-in lighting that must be hardwired goes to a licensed electrician; plug-in units are finished on site

What happens next

  • The written scope and price come first; nothing is drilled, hung or installed until you approve it and confirm the deadline you are working against.
  • Photograph the damage before anything is moved and keep every receipt; 24/7 Express Handyman Service provides an itemised invoice your insurer may ask for. The dispatch fee and job cost are paid by you on the day.
