### Work From Home Without the Wobble
Working from home has become normal, but **wobbly desks with wonky drawers** make productive work frustrating. A desk needs to be rock solid, perfectly level, and organised enough that you can focus.
> 💡 **The key to a good desk?** Getting it level. On Devon's older floors, that often means adjusting every leg leveller individually.

Frequently Asked Questions about Desk assembly in Ottery St Mary
Can you assemble standing desks with electric motors?
Yes - electric sit-stand desks need motors connecting, control panels mounting, and height limits programming. I'll test the full range and show you the presets.
My desk wobbles - can you fix it?
Usually. Desk wobble is almost always fixable - tightening loose fixings, adjusting levellers, or adding bracing. Worth checking before replacing.
Can you set up cable management too?
Yes - I can route cables through grommets and attach cable trays underneath. Makes a big difference to how a workspace feels.
Do you assemble L-shaped desks?
Yes - these need extra attention to get the corner join solid and level. More complex but worth it for the extra workspace.
