FURNITURE ASSEMBLY
SERVICES, DC MD VA

IKEA. Wayfair. Amazon. The boxes arrive and then reality sets in. 5 Star Pros assembles all flatpack furniture, office setups, gym equipment, and more across DC, Maryland, and Virginia — fast, correct, and without the headache.

PROFESSIONAL FURNITURE ASSEMBLY
IN THE DMV AREA

Flatpack furniture is everywhere in the DMV — IKEA PAX wardrobes filling the closets of Capitol Hill apartments, Wayfair sectionals arriving to new homes in Silver Spring, Amazon bed frames going together (or trying to) in Bethesda colonial bedrooms. The promise of affordable furniture is great. The reality of assembling it after a long workday is not. That's why we get calls constantly for this service, and why we've gotten very good at it.

We show up with a complete toolkit — cordless drills, rubber mallets, levels, Allen keys in every size, and the patience to actually read the instructions. Most flatpack goes together faster than you'd think when you know what you're doing. A standard IKEA MALM dresser takes us under 45 minutes. A full IKEA PAX closet system with doors takes 2–3 hours. We work clean, we don't scratch floors or walls, and we don't leave until everything is level, secure, and exactly where you want it.

Beyond standard flatpack, we also assemble gym equipment (treadmills, squat racks, rowing machines), nursery furniture (cribs, dressers, changing tables), and office setups (standing desks, monitor arms, ergonomic chairs). We take all the packaging away when we're done. No mess, no leftover hardware on the floor, no half-built furniture waiting for the weekend. Available across DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia with fast scheduling and same-day availability on many jobs.

How It Works

OUR PROCESS

01
Inventory All Parts

We open every box and verify all parts, hardware, and fasteners are present before starting. If anything is missing, we flag it immediately so you can contact the retailer for a replacement — no surprises mid-build.

02
Organize & Sort

Hardware is sorted and organized before we start. Instructions are reviewed in full before the first screw goes in. This step is what prevents us from getting halfway through a build and realizing something was put together backwards.

03
Assemble Per Specs

We assemble every piece according to manufacturer instructions using proper tools. We don't rush, don't overtighten, and don't improvise. Furniture is positioned where you want it as we go — no dragging heavy pieces across floors after the fact.

04
Level, Secure & Remove Packaging

Every assembled piece is checked for level and stability. Adjustable feet are set, drawer slides are tested, doors are aligned. Then all cardboard, foam, plastic wrap, and packaging materials are broken down and removed from your home.

Common Questions

FURNITURE ASSEMBLY FAQ

Do you assemble all furniture brands?+
Yes. We assemble furniture from all major retailers including IKEA, Wayfair, Amazon, West Elm, Pottery Barn, Crate & Barrel, Article, and more. We also handle store-brand flatpack from Target, Walmart, and Home Depot. If it came with an instruction sheet and a bag of hardware, we can build it — usually faster than you'd expect and without the frustration.
How fast can you come?+
We typically schedule assembly jobs within 1–2 business days across the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. For urgent situations — a new bed frame that arrived and you need it built tonight — text or call us and we'll do our best to fit you in same-day or next morning. We respond to all inquiries within 15 minutes during business hours.
Do you take away the packaging?+
Yes. Cardboard boxes, foam inserts, plastic wrap, twist ties, and all packaging materials are broken down and taken away as part of our standard service. We leave the assembled furniture in place and the room clean. Just let us know if you'd like the cardboard broken down separately for your recycling pickup rather than hauled away.
What about gym equipment?+
We assemble treadmills, exercise bikes, rowing machines, weight benches, squat racks, cable machines, and other home gym equipment. These are more complex than standard flatpack furniture and typically take 2–4 hours per piece depending on the model. We make sure everything is level, all safety clips and covers are properly installed, and the equipment is fully functional before we leave.
