1. The Barefoot Handyman
Based in Saint Petersburg, FL, The Barefoot Handyman works as a furniture assembly service. It has been in business for 21 years. The trickiest parts of assembly are usually the ones that fail later, such as stripped screws, drawers that stick, and doors that sit unevenly. Careful assembly means square frames, snug but not overtightened fasteners, and adjusted hinges so everything opens and closes smoothly. Common requests for furniture assembly include shelving unit installation, office desk and chair assembly, bed frame and headboard setup, sectional sofa setup and bookcase anchoring to the wall. The Barefoot Handyman is also listed for fitness equipment assembly, handyman, interior painting and TV mounting. Homeowners usually call after a big furniture delivery, when a piece has dozens of parts, or when a heavy item needs two people to lift. Photos of the boxes, the room layout, and any partly assembled pieces help an assembler plan the time and tools needed. Pricing usually depends on the number of items, their size and complexity, and whether wall anchoring or old furniture removal is included.
