Assembly and at-home services
With IKEA assembly service, you decide how to spend your time. Because some days, assembling furniture is fun and fulfilling. Other days, not so much. Our skilled, convenient service lets you get life sorted instead of sorting screws. Assembly services start at £31.
What's more, with Taskrabbit's at-home services, you can tackle your other home improvement plans, with services from wall mounting, painting and decorating to gardening.
Taskrabbit
IKEA has partnered with Taskrabbit to make your everyday life at home easier and more comfy, connecting you with simple and affordable ways to get your to-do list done through a network of Taskrabbit Taskers in locations around the UK.
Furniture assembly
Taskrabbit has created assembly pricing just for IKEA products starting at £31*. You will be charged a flat rate based on the products you want assembled, and will only pay once your assembly has been completed. Taskers will secure items to the wall according to the product’s assembly instructions at no additional cost.
