the component no longer sits level, opens or supports ordinary use as intended. Review minor compatible fastening and adjustment work without reconstructing load-bearing furniture or undertaking specialist restoration.
Signs: a practical repair or compatible installation needs a clear product and access review or the component no longer sits level, opens or supports ordinary use as intended. Causes: local damage that does not establish a structural requirement or ordinary wear, loose compatible fixings or minor fitting movement.
A rocking item may involve the floor, adjustable feet or the item itself. Show the setting and describe whether the movement is new. Load-bearing reconstruction is excluded, and a furniture item with unresolved structural damage should not be returned to use.
A small screw or bolt can work loose without the surrounding furniture being damaged. Show the complete connection and any missing hardware. Tightening is appropriate only when the fastener and the material accepting it remain sound and compatible.
The agreed service covers assessed minor mechanical fixings and non-specialist household furniture adjustments. Exclusions: Upholstery, antiques/conservation, powered mechanisms, load-bearing reconstruction, cabinet hinges, drawers, assembly of new items.
