IKEA sofa assembly is quote on inspection

IKEA sofa assembly shows up in autocomplete beside the instructions, the cost and the time. The honest HomeySG answer is quote on inspection. The assembly catalogue lists small items, bed frames, storage beds, wardrobes, gas struts and an acoustic phone booth. A sofa is none of those rows. A LANDSKRONA, a STOCKHOLM, a VISKAFORS, a modular seat or a sofa-bed does not inherit the bed price because it also has screws. IKEA Singapore states that assembly is free on some named sofa series and that other furniture that needs assembly is charged as a percentage of retail, with a separate note for changing sofa covers. Read that on their site if you are still at checkout. Once the sofa is in the living room and you are asking us, we look at the modules and we say quote on inspection unless a different printed row is actually what you have.

Cover changing is the same rule. IKEA prices a cover change against the cover. We do not. A fabric or leather clean of a sofa that is already built is the cleaning catalogue: S$140 to S$280 for a fabric, bouclé, microfibre or leather sofa from a 2-seater to an L-shape on the steam page, and more specific leather bands on the leather page, from S$108 to S$320 for a 2-seater or 3-seater. Those are cleans. They do not assemble the frame. Re-covering a built-in headboard is S$380 to S$850. Dining chair seats, four to six, are S$240 to S$480. A full sofa re-cover is not those rows. It is quote on inspection on the sofa repair page.

What can share the visit at a printed price is the rest of the room. A bed frame is S$80 to S$150. A small side table is S$50 to S$80 if it is actually small. A KALLAX that has become a room-width bench behind the sofa is quote on inspection, same as an oversized shelf. Wall-anchoring a tall shelf beside the sofa is part of assembly when that shelf is being built. It is not a sofa fee. The child-gate and anti-tip bundle at S$180 to S$420 applies when that bundle is the job, typically the preschool scope, not because a sofa has a loose leg.

Singapore living rooms are tight. A sectional that was assembled in the middle of the room may not rotate to the wall without coming apart. If you need it moved within the flat after it is built, that shift is the within-home moving page and is quote on inspection. It is not included in a price we never printed. Condo service lifts and HDB corridors decide whether the modules should have been carried in before the arms went on. Tell us the door width. We will not scuff a newly painted wall to save a line on an invoice that does not exist yet.

Leather and humidity sit next to this search because a new sofa and a mouldy sofa get booked in the same week. If the hide has black spots in the creases, book the leather cleaning page, not assembly. Steam, alcohol wipes and alkaline disinfectant are already refused there because they crack the topcoat. Assembly tools do not clean a hide. If the sofa is leaving, the bulky-item guide explains town council limits. We still do not publish a truck rate.

Homey Furnishing Pte. Ltd. (ACRA UEN 202018148K), 27 Mandai Estate, #06-10 Innovation Place, Singapore 729931, invoices permit-exempt furniture assembly and repair. V On Construction Pte. Ltd. (ACRA UEN 201611708H), on the HDB Directory of Renovation Contractors, invoices an HDB renovation permit when the work is a new layout, hacking, or a built-in strip-out. Homey Furnishing is not a removal company and does not publish a truck rate.

Curtains, blinds and roller shades are not part of this booking. Fabric window treatments are a different product, and these pages do not quote them.

Look at the piece in the room. Do not drag a tall wardrobe across a wet floor to test it.

1. Photograph each module and the fitting bag.
2. Do not assume the bed-frame price.
3. Say if you wanted IKEA own assembly and missed the checkout window.
4. Keep cleaning and re-covering off this request unless you mean those pages.
5. Wait for quote on inspection before anyone comes.

The building changes the permission and the disposal path. It does not invent a second price.

How you're charged

A furniture job that already has a sentence on HomeySG uses that sentence. Nothing in this table is a fuel surcharge, and the handyman hour is not added on top of a band unless the written scope says so. IKEA publishes its own checkout fee. That percentage is not a HomeySG band.

Who is allowed to do the work

The permit guide on this site already splits hardware from a renovation. A cabinet hinge, a gas strut and a drawer runner do not need an HDB renovation permit when the layout stays. A new kitchen or bathroom layout, hacking, or removing a wall does. Fines for unauthorised work are already written there as up to S$5,000. Homey Furnishing does not sign the permit invoice.

• Flat-pack assembly uses the furniture assembly catalogue. Tall units are wall-anchored on that visit. A separate anti-tip price is not printed, except the child-gate and anti-tip bundle at S$180 to S$420 when that bundle is the job.
• A built-in that has to come off the wall can become a strip-out. That is V On Construction if the flat is HDB and the work needs a permit. A loose shelf inside a carcass is not a strip-out.
• Town councils collect some bulky loose items on their own rules. We are not the collector, and we do not publish their fee.
• A new cable inside a wardrobe is an electrician. Assembly does not include a new circuit.
• Do not anchor into a household shelter wall. The permit guide already keeps TV brackets and shelves off that wall.
• A hollow partition or a false ceiling is a poor anchor for a tall wardrobe. If the fixing cannot reach structure, the visit stops.
• Active termites are not painted over. Skirting and door-frame replacement after damage uses the termite page bands. We do not claim to be the pest-control operator.
• Curtains, blinds and roller shades are not quoted here.

Ways to keep the bill smaller

• Photograph every piece before a carpenter is booked. A hinge visit is not a new kitchen.
• Put the flat-pack in the room where it will stand. Carrying a built wardrobe down an HDB corridor is a second job.
• If the drawer only sticks, use the published slide row. A new carcass is the cabinet page, and only when the board is swollen.
• Book the town council bulky slot before you pay anyone to truck a loose sofa. Many councils collect a limited number of loose items. Built-ins are usually excluded.
• Do not pay a wardrobe price for a sofa, and do not pay a cleaning price for a build. Send the module count.

The empty cell is intentional. Neighbouring rows are printed so they are not borrowed by mistake.

Anything not in that table is quote on inspection.

WhatsApp the photos to +65 8561 0630. The reply uses a band already printed on HomeySG, or it says quote on inspection.
