Desk Assembly
supplied desk tops, frames and mechanical furniture fittings
Service overview
Separate similar bolts using the instruction labels rather than appearance alone. A fastener that is too long can damage a desktop. Keep spare parts and packing information until the assembly is checked and any supplier shortage has been resolved.
Desk tops can be awkward to turn in a furnished office. Clear space for the parts and explain any narrow doorway or staircase. The intended final position and the route from the delivery area both affect how the job can be organised.
Send photographs of the existing joints, loose parts and instructions if the desk is partly built. A cross-threaded bolt or damaged insert can prevent correct tightening. Forcing the joint may make replacement parts necessary instead of allowing a simple adjustment.
The agreed service covers manufacturer-directed assembly of supported desk frames, tops and supplied furniture hardware. Exclusions: Electrical installation, cable relocation, custom joinery, motor/controller repair.
The Basin property context
For The Basin enquiries, describe the available workspace as well as the requested desk assembly. The top, frame and fasteners must be compatible; a close visual match does not establish suitable hole positions or support. Include the best access contact and explain any restrictions affecting the work area. For a The Basin quote, describe each task separately and note height, parking, tenant access or preferred appointment windows. This gives the Owner enough context to assess the request without collecting unnecessary personal information.
Planning the work
Follow the desk loading instructions and keep the frame clear of obstacles. Electrical faults or powered mechanism problems need the appropriate specialist. Discuss any final finish or product-specific restrictions before returning the area to ordinary use.
Send the desk model, frame and top specifications, carton labels and a wide view of the workspace. Keep labels and instructions available so the item can be identified accurately instead of relying on a general description.
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
Common situations
Explain whether the desk uses a manual adjustment or a powered system. The advertised service covers suitable mechanical furniture assembly. Wiring changes, power-point work and motor or controller repairs are not included simply because they are part of the same workstation.
An uneven floor can make a correctly assembled desk feel unstable. Product-adjustable feet can be checked where supplied, along with the clearances around the frame. Furniture levelling does not include altering the floor or the surrounding building structure.
Drawers, modesty panels and return sections add work beyond attaching legs to a top. Include the full product configuration. Supplied mechanical fittings can be considered together, while unrelated storage units should be listed as additional items in the quote request.

Follow the supplied mechanical assembly sequence, fit compatible furniture accessories and check the agreed positioning and levelling. Timing depends on the actual condition, access, quantities and required stages. Any parts or drying requirements are considered when scheduling; a fixed completion time cannot be promised from the service name alone.
Show the mounting method for a keyboard tray, shelf or cable tray. Accessories need to fit the particular desk and its instructions. Drilling new holes, supporting heavy equipment or adding unrelated brackets requires its own suitability review before inclusion.

Electrical installation, cable relocation, custom joinery, motor/controller repair. Describe any additional requirement separately. Suitability is reviewed before work is accepted, and a specialist requirement must not be treated as a routine extension of the quoted handyman task.
