Should You Actually Hire an Assembler or Do It Yourself?

We’ve all been there—staring at a box of parts, a tiny Allen key, and an instruction manual thicker than your last novel. So, the question is: should you hire a professional assembler or take the DIY route? Here’s what to consider:

🧠 1. Time vs. Cost

DIY can save you money, but it often costs more time than expected—especially if instructions are unclear or you need tools you don’t have. Hiring a pro means the job is done quickly, safely, and right the first time.

🔧 2. Tools & Know-How

Most furniture requires more than just a screwdriver. From power drills to leveling tools, pros come prepared. We also know how to handle tricky brands like IKEA, Wayfair, or Structube—and we’ve seen it all.

🛋️ 3. Quality & Safety

That wobbly bookcase? It might look okay, but it could be a hazard. Our team ensures everything is secure, leveled, and aligned—whether it’s a heavy dresser, a mounted TV, or a custom closet.

😤 4. Stress-Free Setup

Let’s be honest: some people love building stuff, but most don’t. If the idea of sorting parts and deciphering diagrams drains your energy, let us handle it—no headaches, no guesswork.

✅ When DIY Might Work:

  • It’s a small item (like a nightstand)

  • You’ve built it before

  • You already have the tools and some experience

🔥 When to Hire a Pro:

  • Large or multi-step builds (wardrobes, bed frames, gazebos)

  • Wall mounting or structural installs (TVs, curtain rods)

  • You want it done fast, perfectly, and stress-free

Bottom Line:

DIY is great—until it isn’t. When you want peace of mind, polished results, and more time to enjoy your space, hiring a professional like 6IX Assembly is always worth it.
