Mistakes during the installation of furniture could damage the piece, affect its lifespan negatively, or even render it useless right there and then. It takes skill, knowledge, and in some situations, the right equipment to ensure stellar results. That’s why you’ll want to avoid the following mistakes during a furniture installation.
Not Hiring Pros
Thinking that you and your staff can handle the assembly and installation of the furniture isn’t ideal. Your employees likely don’t have the experience and knowledge essential to ensuring a smooth and problem-free result. Your best bet is to hire a team of pros to handle the installation for you.
Underestimating the Job
Many people think it’s easy to disassemble and put together furniture during a move. But not everyone is equipped with that skill. Underestimating the job could lead to accidents and injuries on the part of your staff. Ensure the best possible outcome instead by hiring a furniture installation service.
Assuming All Furniture is the Same
Given the different models and equipment makers out there, it’s safe to say that there’s wide range of furniture out there. With different manufacturing as well as design approaches, it’s best to hire pros familiar with that furniture and allow them to do the installation. That will save you a lot of time and effort.
Not Knowing the Risks
It might seem easy but disassembling and putting the furniture back comes with risks. Shoddy and careless work could lead to accidents. For instance, if the furniture isn’t put together with care, it could collapse at any moment. That could hurt a lot of your employees. Prevent that disaster by getting pros to handle your furniture installation and assembly.
Not Hiring Right
There are plenty of options when you look for furniture installation assistance. But not all of those companies are the right option for you. Pick the one that offers most—if not all—of the services you need. How was the experience of consulting with the staff? Are they polite and informative?
Too Big a Project
If this is a big project, then you have all the more reason to hire pros to handle the relocation and assembly of your furniture. If the work is too much for your team, it could take days before they’re done. Those days are better spent on work involving your core business instead of asking your team to handle a task that they are ill equipped for.
