About us

Furniture & Equipment Assembly (indoor and outdoor). Hanging: Stuff, not people, OK? Have Tools, Will Travel. We specialize in RTA (Ready-To-Assemble) furniture: All major brands; IKEA, Sauder, Bush, West Elm, South Shore, All the lines carried by Walmart, Target, etc, and the on-line companies; Amazon, Wayfair, Overstock, etc. We also assemble fitness equipment, outdoor playsets and storage sheds (assemble a Shed from a kit--Yes, build a shed from uncut lumber, not so much). We can also do disassembly & reassembly for moves within the greater Chicago area. Certificate of Insurance, or being listed as Additional Named Insured, available upon request. In 2015, we added picture hanging, mirror installation, and art installation as a service for our customers due to demand. We travel with specialty hooks, d-rings, lightweight picture wire, heavyweight (100 LBs rated) wire, and some aircraft-grade wire-rope rated at over 1,000 LBS. We do not charge for the small hooks, or for placing wire on the backside of lightweight frames. Artwork from IKEA, or on-line vendors often has no hardware at all on the backside. We have specialty levels, and we use the Yellow Frog Brand tape (delicate) to place our marks on walls. We also work with heavy wall items (i.e. large mirrors, wall sculptures, floating shelves, wine-racks, and the assorted DIY wall-mount garage and closet storage systems). We still mount Flatscreen Televisions every now and then.

Description of Work: They assembled 7 pieces of furniture from IKEA. They were very pleasant and courteous. Were very efficient - were equipped to handle many unforeseen situations (missing screws, nuts and bolts, etc) - were equipped with many different tools in anticipation of every type of need. (The Boy Scout motto "Be Prepared" comes to mind) |I would have no hesitation recommending or utilizing their services again!

Description of Work: I purchased this provider's services as a deal from Angie's list. Reese and Michael were great. They showed up on time, put together an executive office chair, a book case, a tv media swivel stand and The Curio Cabinet From H***. They were polite, professional. Cleaned up everything and took the trash out for me. The curio cabinet had some issues that they took care of and still got the piece together for me. I would hire them again in a heartbeat and certainly recommend them for anyone who could use their services. Superlative service! Nice to see someone committed to providing great customer service in this day and age.
