Professional bedside table assembly - nightstands and bedside cabinets built with drawers that actually glide. Perfect for matching pairs positioned symmetrically.
### Drawers That Actually Work
Bedside tables seem simple until you're staring at a pile of panels and instructions that assume you've got three hands. **Drawers are the usual pain point** - get them slightly wrong and they'll stick, jam, or never quite close flush.
> 💡 **Smart booking tip:** A pair of bedside tables takes 30-45 minutes. Combine with bed frame assembly or other small jobs to get the best value from your first hour.

### Why Drawers Go Wrong
| ✅ Done Right | ❌ Common Problems | |--------------|-------------------| | Runners precisely aligned | Drawer catches and sticks | | Base panel properly seated | Drawer sags and jams | | Front panel square | Never closes flush | | Soft-close adjusted | Slams shut or won't close |
I take the time to get these right. Your drawers will glide smoothly for years.

Frequently Asked Questions about Bedside table assembly in Ottery St Mary
Can you assemble a pair of matching bedside tables?
Yes, and this is the most common request. A pair takes around 45 minutes total. Add it to bed frame assembly and you're making excellent use of the booking.
My drawers always stick - can you fix that?
Usually, yes. Drawer problems almost always come down to assembly - runners not aligned, base panels not seated, or unit slightly out of square. I'll make sure everything is positioned correctly so drawers glide smoothly.
Is this job big enough to book on its own?
You can, but I'd suggest combining with other small jobs. At 30-45 minutes for a pair, you're paying for the first hour anyway, so add in other items like lamp assembly, small shelf mounting, or furniture repairs.
Do bedside tables need wall fixing?
Not usually - they're designed to be freestanding. However, if you have small children and the unit is tall, an anti-tip bracket might be worth considering.
