### Because event prep is stressful enough
You've got a big party coming up - christening, birthday, anniversary, garden party. You've hired or borrowed tables and chairs, but they're arriving in flat-packs or need arranging, and you've got a hundred other things on your list before Saturday.
I'll come and get it all built, arranged how you want it, and make sure everything's stable and ready before guests arrive. Then if you want, I'll come back after and pack it all away while you recover.
**What event setup typically involves:**
| 🪑 **Assembly** | 📐 **Arrangement** | 📦 **Pack-Down** | |----------------|-------------------|------------------| | Build flat-pack furniture | Position tables and chairs | Dismantle after event | | Check stability | Layout matching your plan | Fold and stack hired items | | Level on uneven surfaces | Make adjustments as needed | Return to storage/garage |

### Pricing Guide
| Setup Size | Estimated Time | You'll Pay | |------------|----------------|------------| | Small (under 20 people) | 1 hr | **£60** | | Medium (20-40 people) | 2 hrs | **£110** | | Large (40+ people) | 3 hrs | **£160** |
**Post-event pack-down:** Same price as setup - £60-160 depending on volume.
*Based on £60 minimum (first hour) + £50/hr after.*
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Book setup for the day before your event if possible, not the morning of. Gives you time to see the layout, make tweaks, and means one less thing happening on the actual day when you're stressed and running late.

What to Expect
### Step 1: Pre-event setup I'll arrive when you've specified (day before or morning of event), assemble all the flat-pack furniture, and arrange tables and chairs according to your plan. If you haven't got a specific layout in mind, I can suggest arrangements based on your space and guest numbers. ### Step 2: Making it right Tables get leveled even on wonky lawns, chairs are checked for stability (wobbly flat-pack chairs get tightened), and everything's positioned so there's good flow and access. If you want to tweak the layout once it's set up, we'll adjust until you're happy. ### Step 3: Post-event (optional) If you've booked post-event pack-down, I'll come back at whatever time suits (usually next morning), dismantle everything, fold and stack hired items ready for collection, or store your own furniture back in garage/shed. Leave your space clear and normal again. ---

Good to Know
**Multi-job opportunity:** Often event prep includes other jobs - hanging bunting, sorting garden lighting, clearing patio furniture to make space. I'll knock a bit off when combining tasks. **Hired furniture coordination:** If furniture's being delivered by a hire company, let me know timing. I can assemble as it arrives or work around their schedule. Some hire companies deliver pre-assembled, some don't. **Weather contingency:** For outdoor events, we can discuss backup plans. Sometimes means setting up a gazebo first, sometimes having a quick-deploy plan if forecast changes. I'm used to British weather being unpredictable. **Old Devon gardens:** Many properties around Exeter have sloping lawns and uneven ground. I carry shims and know tricks for making tables level on less-than-perfect surfaces. Your event will look professional even if your garden isn't bowling-green flat. **Post-party reality:** Everyone underestimates how exhausting pack-down is after a big event. You're tired, probably a bit hungover, and facing hours of dismantling furniture. The post-event pack-down service is often the bit people are most grateful for. **Storage advice:** If you've bought tables and chairs rather than hired them, I can help position them sensibly in your garage or shed so they're easy to access next time without rebuilding the storage tetris puzzle.
Frequently Asked Questions about Table and chair setup for events in Tiverton
What kind of events is this service for?
Garden parties, christenings, big birthday celebrations, wedding receptions at home, anniversary parties - any event where you've borrowed or bought extra seating and need it assembled and set up. Also helps with putting it all away afterwards when you're exhausted.
Do you provide tables and chairs or just set up mine?
I set up yours - hired furniture, borrowed from friends, or flat-packs you've bought. I don't hire out furniture myself, but I'll assemble and arrange whatever you've got. If it came in boxes, I'll build it.
Can you come back after the event to dismantle and pack away?
Absolutely - often the best part of the service. You're tired, the party was great, and the last thing you want is spending Sunday dismantling 30 chairs. I'll come back, pack everything away, and leave your garden/house back to normal.
My garden's on a slope - can you still set up tables level?
Yes - I'll use shims or adjust legs to make tables level even on uneven ground. Nothing worse than wine glasses sliding across the table mid-party. I carry bits to level furniture on typical Devon slopes and lawns.
What if it's raining on setup day?
For outdoor events, we might need to be flexible on timing. If rain's forecast, we can discuss whether to set up in a garage/conservatory then move out when weather improves, or delay setup till the last moment. I'll work around your event timeline.
