Minor Furniture Repair
small mechanical fixing repairs and adjustments to suitable household furniture
Service overview
Keep loose hardware and send any part numbers before purchasing substitutes. Thread size, length and the connection design matter. The service can review compatible small-part work but does not promise bespoke manufacture or parts for discontinued furniture systems.
Antiques, upholstery and conservation work need different skills and methods. Powered reclining or lifting mechanisms are also outside this scope. Identify these features at the enquiry stage so a general handyman adjustment is not mistaken for specialist restoration.
Movement at a joint may indicate more than a loose screw. Split material, pulled inserts or failed load-bearing connections can require specialist work or replacement. Stop using an unstable item and explain what moves rather than trying repeated temporary fixes.
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.
Narbethong property context
An occupied Narbethong property may need preparation before minor furniture repair can begin. Show the complete item, its material and the loose fixing or joint, with any product label or previous repair visible. Mention rooms that need to remain usable and identify who can agree the scope and arrange entry. Narbethong sits near Fernshaw, Toolangi, Marysville and Chum Creek. Fix Nik can review practical maintenance requests across this part of Greater Melbourne, with the job scope and property conditions guiding timing, materials and the appropriate service.
Planning the work
Review minor compatible fastening and adjustment work without reconstructing load-bearing furniture or undertaking specialist restoration. Identify any additional items separately so the scope and preparation are understood by everyone arranging the work.
Loose hardware must be distinguished from a failed load-bearing component. Stability concerns need assessment before continued use. Any unresolved requirement should be explained before committing to a visit or buying additional materials.
Show the complete item, its material and the loose fixing or joint, with any product label or previous repair visible. 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.
Common situations
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.
Solid timber, veneers, composite panels and metal frames have different fastening arrangements. A product label and close photo can help identify them. A repair should suit the actual construction; a generic fixing should not be assumed to work in every material.
Existing drawers and cupboard hinges have their own repair scopes, while new boxed items belong under assembly. Describe each requested task separately. Grouping an enquiry can help planning without turning this minor adjustment service into an unlimited furniture restoration offer.

FAQ
Loose hardware must be distinguished from a failed load-bearing component. Stability concerns need assessment before continued use. Share the exact product or part specification before purchasing. Appearance alone does not establish compatibility, and missing or damaged supplied components may change the work or require a later visit.
Show the complete item, its material and the loose fixing or joint, with any product label or previous repair visible. Mention stairs, restricted entry, furniture obstructions and the person arranging access. Any unusual handling or equipment requirement should be reviewed before a date is agreed rather than assumed from the suburb.
Follow any rest or curing guidance and reassess recurring movement. Do not test an uncertain repair by loading the furniture beyond its intended use. Any limitations, unfinished stages or separate work should be explained at handover. Keep relevant product information and tell Fix Nik if the original issue returns rather than making repeated improvised adjustments.
Review minor compatible fastening and adjustment work without reconstructing load-bearing furniture or undertaking specialist restoration. 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.
Review minor compatible fastening and adjustment work without reconstructing load-bearing furniture or undertaking specialist restoration.

Review minor compatible fastening and adjustment work without reconstructing load-bearing furniture or undertaking specialist restoration. The quote identifies the actual item, components and extent of work. An enquiry for one task does not automatically include every related item in the room or property.
Tell Fix Nik about glue, extra screws or brackets already added. Earlier work can conceal damage or affect access to the original fitting. Knowing what has changed helps decide whether another minor adjustment is practical or would merely repeat a failed approach.
