Furniture assembly in Riyadh

New flat-pack furniture to assemble, or moving home and need the bedrooms taken apart? Here are rough prices, and tips so every piece goes back in its place.

How much does furniture assembly cost in Riyadh?

Rough prices. The price depends on the number and size of pieces, and whether it's new assembly or dismantling and reassembly with a move.

ServiceRough price
Assembling new furniture (average of real Riyadh jobs)SAR 200 – 1,200
Move within Riyadh with dismantling and assembly (ads)SAR 150 – 400 for a small move
Small piece (shelf, table, bedside table)From SAR 90

💡 Send photos and a count of the pieces first, and ask for one price for everything. Clearer than per-piece pricing, and it saves money.

🚚 If you're moving, ask the removals company whether dismantling and assembly are included. Usually cheaper than a separate carpenter.

Common problems and what to do

Screws lost after dismantling

Put each piece's screws in its own bag and write the piece's name on it.

Lost the instructions

Most brands (like IKEA) have assembly instructions on their website. Search by the item number.

Wood broken around a screw

From too much taking apart. The fitter can use bigger screws or wooden dowels.

A part missing from the box

Open the boxes and check the parts against the instructions before the fitter comes.

Wardrobe leans after assembly

The floor isn't level or the doors need adjusting. The fitter adjusts the hinges and feet.

Tall wardrobe wobbles

It must be fixed to the wall, especially with children around.

Before you agree with any fitter

  1. A list of pieces

    List every piece (bedrooms, wardrobes, beds, desks) and send it with photos.

  2. Dismantle, assemble, move

    Say whether you want dismantling only, assembly only, or all three with the move.

  3. Wall fixing

    Ask whether screws and plugs for fixing to the wall are included.

  4. Price in writing

    Get the final price on WhatsApp before they start.

  5. Guarantee

    If something leans or creaks two days later, will they come back to fix it?

  6. Reviews

    Look for genuine reviews or ask someone who has used them.

Tips so everything goes right

Photograph before dismantling

Photograph each piece assembled; it helps with reassembly later.

Number the panels

Write a number on each panel in pencil or on masking tape.

Keep the tools with the furniture

Allen keys and screws in a clear bag; don't pack them with other things.

Tighten after a few weeks

New furniture loosens a little. Tighten the screws after the first month.

Common questions

How long does assembling a new bedroom take?

Usually two to four hours; the big wardrobe takes most of the time.

Can furniture be taken apart many times?

Particle board (MDF) weakens each time. Once or twice is usually fine; after that it needs new screws or dowels.

Does Laqeeni take commission?

No. Laqeeni is a directory that connects you with the fitter directly. You agree and pay between you.
