The first risk is losing the manufacturer's warranty. IKEA, for example, requires assembly according to instructions for the warranty to be valid. If the furniture breaks due to incorrect assembly, it's not covered. We've seen wardrobes collapse a month after assembly because bolts were screwed in crookedly or not all intended screws were used. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we respond within 10 minutes during business hours. Before starting the work, the handyman reviews the task and provides you with a fixed written quote, detailing labour and materials. If any unforeseen issues arise during the repair, we will consult you and you decide whether to proceed.

The second risk is wall damage. Anchoring a tall wardrobe to a wall without proper rawlplugs for the material can tear out plaster or brick when someone pulls a drawer. For each material (concrete, brick, plasterboard, tiles) there are specific rawlplugs. Using the same generic rawlplug for everything is a recipe for the furniture to fall down weeks later. When the model requires it, secure wall anchoring with rawlplugs suitable for the material. IKEA is by far the most in demand. Their furniture is reasonably well designed, instructions are clear (though without text, only universal drawings). Components fit precisely when assembled correctly. The most common mistake is overtightening the plastic cam screws, which break and need replacement. The correct technique is to tighten by hand until it stops and then give only half a turn more with a screwdriver, not an electric one.

The total lead time is 2-4 days depending on the kitchen size. We recommend planning ahead because kitchens have long delivery times (4-8 weeks for IKEA, up to 12 in some stores) and it's advisable to have the handyman booked before the materials arrive. Standard IKEA Billy bookcase takes 30-45 minutes. A three-door wardrobe with interior drawers, 90 minutes to 2 hours. A double bed with slatted base, 60-90 minutes. An extendable dining table with chairs, 45-90 minutes depending on the model. A simple desk, 30-45 minutes. Amazon is a separate case because quality varies radically depending on the seller and brand. There are excellent pieces of furniture and others that are unviable and break during assembly. If you have doubts about the brand, send us a photo of the package before booking an appointment and we will tell you if it is assemblable or if it should be returned.

The price of modular kitchens in Pubilla Cases typically ranges between €28 and €315. The final figure depends on the condition of the property, the materials, and the working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. We provide a detailed quote before starting, with labour and materials itemised, so you know exactly how much you will pay. Each intervention is covered for thirty days: if the problem reoccurs, we return at no extra cost to review it.
