What the customer called us about

A boxed TV console with an electric fireplace insert, dozens of panels and hardware bags, hinged glass doors, drawers with slides, and an instruction booklet. The kind of build that eats a homeowner's whole Saturday and still ends up with a wobble.

What Viking did

  • Unboxed and laid out every panel and hardware bag before starting, so missing parts would surface at the start rather than at step forty
  • Assembled the console carcass, drawers, and hinged mirrored-glass doors
  • Installed the electric fireplace insert into the center bay and tested it
  • Set the finished console in place against the wall and put the TV on top
  • Assembly done on the rug to protect both the panels and the floor

Photographs from the job

Original photos taken by Viking Solutions on site in Washington.

Before

Flat-pack TV console panels and hardware laid out on a living room rug with the instruction sheet before assembly
Every panel and hardware bag laid out and checked before the first screw.

The result

From a floor covered in green panels to a finished console with the fireplace insert running and the TV in place, in the same afternoon. The before photo was taken at midday, the after photo about two and a half hours later.

Worth knowing

Flat-pack furniture with an appliance inside it, like a fireplace insert, is worth having assembled properly. A racked carcass or an insert forced into an out-of-square bay is how these units end up wobbling or buzzing.

Questions about this kind of work

Is furniture assembly really worth hiring out?

For a simple bookshelf, probably not. For a unit like this one, with an electric fireplace insert, mirrored-glass doors, drawer slides, and a carcass that has to stay square, an experienced assembler finishes in a couple of hours what typically costs a homeowner an afternoon and some frustration.

What does Viking charge for furniture assembly?

Viking bills flat-rate labor with a standard call-out fee rather than open-ended hourly billing, so you know the number before the work starts. Call or text 435-525-2996 with a photo of the box and you will get a straight answer.
