Table extensions fitted, extra chairs assembled, furniture rearranged to fit everyone in. Takes the stress out of Christmas Day preparations.
### One less thing to worry about before Christmas
You've got enough on your plate without wrestling with table extension leaves that haven't moved since 2019, or spending Boxing Day eve building six flat-pack chairs.
I'll come round, sort your dining setup, and leave you with a table ready for the big day.
**What I typically do:**
| Common Christmas Table Jobs | What's Involved | |---------------------------|-----------------| | 🎄 **Fit table extension leaves** | Ease out stuck extensions, align properly, ensure level surface | | 🪑 **Assemble extra chairs** | Build flat-pack dining chairs, check stability, position neatly | | 🏠 **Furniture rearrangement** | Move sideboards, create dining space, shift furniture safely | | 📦 **Garage table setup** | Bring down folding tables, clean up, make sturdy and level |

### Pricing Guide
| Job Type | Estimated Time | You'll Pay | |----------|----------------|------------| | Extension leaf fitting only | 1 hr | **£60** | | Extension + 2-4 chairs to assemble | 1.5 hrs | **£85** | | Full room rearrangement + chairs | 2 hrs | **£110** |
*Based on £60 minimum (first hour) + £50/hr after.*
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Book early December when I'm less busy. Last-minute calls on 23rd December get tricky to fit in. And take a photo of how your furniture's arranged now - makes putting it back after Christmas much easier.

What to Expect
### Step 1: Quick assessment I'll have a look at your table mechanism, check what chairs need building, and see what furniture needs moving. If extension leaves have been stored somewhere damp, I'll assess whether they need any easing to fit properly. ### Step 2: Getting it done Table extensions get fitted and aligned, chairs get assembled and tested for stability, furniture gets moved carefully (protecting your floors and walls). I'll make sure the table's level and everything's stable before anyone sits down. ### Step 3: Final check We'll test the table's sturdy, chairs are all safe, and you've got proper space to move around. If you want, I'll take photos of where everything was originally so Boxing Day teardown is easier. ---

Good to Know
**Multi-job discount:** Getting me to also hang Christmas lights, fix that wobbly bannister, or sort other pre-Christmas jobs? I'll knock a bit off when combining work. **Old houses:** Wonky floors mean tables often aren't level. I carry shims to sort that - your guests' wine glasses won't slide across the table mid-dinner. **After Christmas:** Book me between Christmas and New Year to put everything back, pack away extra chairs, and return your dining room to normal. Same rates, saves you the hassle when you're relaxing.
Frequently Asked Questions about Christmas dinner table setup in Newton Abbot
What does the Christmas table setup service include?
We'll fit table extension leaves, assemble any extra chairs you've bought, move furniture around to create dining space, or help set up that folding table from the garage. Whatever you need to fit everyone around the table on the big day.
Can you come on Christmas Eve?
I try to keep Christmas Eve for family time, but if you're really stuck I might be able to help in the morning. Best to book a few days earlier though - ideally mid-December when things are less hectic.
My table extension hasn't been used in years - will it still fit?
Often they just need a bit of persuasion and maybe a clean. I'll bring tools to ease it into place if it's stuck, and can sort any alignment issues. If the wood's swollen from storage, I can plane it down slightly so it fits properly.
Do I need to provide the extra chairs?
Yes - I don't hire out furniture. But if you've bought flat-pack chairs or borrowed some that need assembling, I'll get them built and positioned. Or if you've got chairs in the loft or garage that need bringing down, I can handle that too.
What about moving furniture back after Christmas?
Absolutely - book me for Boxing Day or just after and I'll put everything back where it was. Same price, less stress than struggling with that heavy sideboard yourself when you're full of turkey.
