Minor Furniture Repair
small mechanical fixing repairs and adjustments to suitable household furniture
Sunbury property context
Sunbury sits within the existing Greater Melbourne coverage. For minor furniture repair, measurements, product information and access details are more useful than assumptions about the suburb's buildings. Loose hardware must be distinguished from a failed load-bearing component. Stability concerns need assessment before continued use. A useful Sunbury enquiry identifies the affected room or outdoor area, explains what has changed and includes wide and close photographs. Measurements and access notes help separate urgent repairs from work that can be grouped into a later visit.
Service overview
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Planning the work
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.

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.
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.
FAQ
Loose hardware must be distinguished from a failed load-bearing component. Stability concerns need assessment before continued use. Unexpected damage, incompatible materials or access limitations should be discussed before extending the work. A photo enquiry is not authorisation for additional tasks or a promise to resolve every concealed problem.
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.

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.
Review minor compatible fastening and adjustment work without reconstructing load-bearing furniture or undertaking specialist restoration. Arrange the required owner or manager permission and identify the access contact. Include restrictions affecting drilling, finishes or room use where relevant; the property address alone does not establish authority to carry out work.
