When You Need a Room Refresh
Fancy a change? Want to try the sofa against a different wall? Need to move heavy furniture to redecorate? Sometimes you just need things shifted around - and some furniture is too heavy or awkward to do safely yourself.
💡 Pro tip: Redecorating? Get furniture repositioned first to clear the room, then book me again to put it back when you're done. Much easier than working around heavy furniture.
Why Not Just DIY It?

Good to Know
> 📦 **Painting or wallpapering?** Move furniture to the room center and cover with dust sheets. Much easier than working around it. Book me again when you're done to put it all back. **Trying different layouts?** I can help you try a few positions while I'm there - no extra charge if we're within the hour. Sometimes seeing furniture in different spots helps you decide. **Exeter's older houses with uneven floors?** Common around here. I'll use furniture pads to level things once they're in position, so wardrobes don't rock and doors close properly.
Frequently Asked Questions about Furniture repositioning in Ottery St Mary
Why would I need furniture repositioning?
Usually to redecorate (getting furniture out of the way), try a new room layout, make space for something new, or just freshen up a room. Sometimes people want to swap furniture between rooms. All common reasons to book this.
Can you move heavy furniture like sofas and wardrobes?
Yes - that's exactly what I do. Sofas, beds, wardrobes, dining tables, bookcases. If it's too heavy for you to move safely, I can move it. I use furniture sliders so nothing marks the floor.
Do I need to empty furniture first?
Wardrobes and drawers yes - empty them. Bookcases need shelves cleared. But sofas, tables, bed frames - no need. The lighter the better, but I work with what you've got.
Can you help me decide on the best room layout?
I can give practical advice on what'll fit and what won't, but interior design isn't really my thing. I'm here to move the heavy stuff wherever you want it - you decide the layout.
What if I change my mind after you've moved it?
No problem - as long as I'm still there. If you want to try a different position or swap things around again, we can do that. Just part of working out what looks best.
