Assembly and installation service calls across the Greater Montreal Area, with larger commercial and hospitality programs coordinated in major Canadian markets.
Assembly and installation service calls across the Greater Montreal Area, with larger commercial and hospitality programs coordinated in major Canadian markets.
Assembly is putting the piece together. Installation is getting it where it belongs, mounted, positioned and finished. Most real jobs need both.
A flat-pack wardrobe delivered to a third-floor apartment is two problems: building it correctly, and building it somewhere it will actually fit through the door once assembled. A forty-desk office is a different problem again — the same operation repeated at a pace the building will tolerate, in a sequence that leaves each area usable.
Next Movement runs furniture assembly and installation as a scoped, quoted service rather than an hourly favour attached to something else. Crews arrive with the tools and protection the job needs, work from your floor plans, renders or placement instructions, and leave the space finished: pieces positioned, packaging removed, work area clean.
Because the same operation also runs deliveries, moves and FF&E installations, assembly is frequently booked as part of a larger project. Where the furniture is arriving on a truck we are already sending, transport and installation can be coordinated under one scope instead of two visits and two access plans.

The same crews and standards, scoped differently depending on who is accountable for the result.
Newly delivered furniture built properly the first time, in the room it belongs in.
Desks, seating and storage installed by area on a schedule the building and the staff can live with.
Placement executed against your renders and floor plans, with client-facing professionalism on site.
Model suites, common areas and staged units installed across a building or a portfolio.
Guest-room and public-area installation as one phase of a wider FF&E program.
On a full hospitality renovation, installation is one link in a longer chain: receiving, quality control, project warehousing and sequenced delivery.

Direct communication with the client or the project representative
Questions raised before improvising, not after
Crews arrive with standard professional tools. What they cannot bring is the manufacturer’s own hardware: brackets, cam locks, proprietary fasteners and product-specific components need to accompany the furniture, because they are made for that piece and no generic substitute is equivalent.
Where a proprietary component is missing or damaged, it is documented and escalated so the manufacturer or supplier can replace it. Substituting unauthorized hardware or modifying a piece to make it work is not done — it voids warranties, and on designer or high-value furniture it turns a missing screw into a damaged asset.
Installation happens in finished spaces. The protection plan is part of the scope, not something improvised when the first piece scuffs a floor. The operating principle: If site conditions create a meaningful risk of damage, the issue is escalated rather than ignored simply to maintain production.
Floor protection where the surface or the traffic warrants it
Moving blankets and padding under and around assembly work
Doorway and corner protection on the route where required
Care around walls, trim and millwork on tight turns
Protection of existing furniture staying in the space
Elevator and corridor protection in multi-unit and commercial buildings
Pre-existing conditions documented before work starts when appropriate
Work area swept and cleared before the crew leaves
Two different service levels, because a single installer visit and a multi-floor commercial program are not the same operation.
Assembly and installation service calls. The primary service area for smaller furniture assembly and installation service calls is the Greater Montreal Area. Single-installer visits, whole-room assembly, mounting work and small punch-list visits are handled here, subject to availability.
Small service-call work is not offered on a national basis. If you need one installer in another market, ask and you will get an honest answer rather than an accepted booking that gets subcontracted blindly.
Commercial, hospitality and FF&E installation programs. Larger commercial, hospitality and FF&E installation programs can be coordinated in major Canadian markets according to project size and requirements, using the same crews, standards and site-protection practices described on this page.
Project-specific travel and mobilization for out-of-market work is quoted upfront in the flat-rate proposal.
Flat-rate quotation based on the scope, confirmed before the crew is scheduled. No hourly rate and no published per-item price, because the same bookcase is a different job in a ground-floor loft than on the fourth floor of a walk-up.
A quote is built from what is being assembled and what it takes to do it properly. Send the item list — ideally with model names or links — plus the floor, the access and anything being mounted, and the number that comes back is the number.
Where assembly is booked alongside a delivery, a move or an FF&E installation, it is normally quoted inside that project rather than separately, because the access planning and often the crew are shared.
For defined hotel guest-room FF&E scopes, the published FF&E baseline rate of $750 per room for guest-room installation applies. That rate is specific to defined hotel-room scopes and is not a general residential or commercial assembly rate.
Seven steps from the first message to a finished room. Most residential jobs run through all of them in one visit.
Share the item list, model names or links, and what you want done. Floor plans, renders or placement instructions are welcome if you have them.
We check assembly complexity, what is being mounted, the access, the floor level and anything that needs separate review before it becomes a surprise on site.
You get one number for the agreed scope before anything is booked, along with anything explicitly excluded from it.
The visit is scheduled against your date, the building’s access rules and any elevator or loading window that applies.
Protection goes down first. Pieces are unpacked, components checked against the parts list, assembled with the manufacturer’s hardware, and mounted where mounting is in scope.
Furniture is positioned according to your plans, renders or direction, then levelled and aligned. Deficiencies are documented rather than worked around.
Packaging is consolidated and removed, the area is swept, and the work is walked through with you or the project representative before the crew leaves.
The most efficient installations are booked as part of the project that put the furniture in the room in the first place.
Need delivery and installation?
Where furniture has to arrive as well as be built, delivery and final assembly can be coordinated under one scope instead of two visits and two access plans.
See home deliveryMoving?
Furniture taken apart for transport gets rebuilt and placed at the destination as part of the move rather than left for you to finish.
See residential movingOffice relocation?
Workstations and storage assembled and placed floor by floor as the relocation arrives, so each area is usable when staff return.
See commercial movingHotel or FF&E project?
Guest-room and public-area installation sequenced against receiving, quality control, warehousing and sequenced delivery.
See FF&E project logisticsReplacing furniture?
Removal of the furniture being replaced can run on the same visit as the assembly of what is taking its place.
See furniture removalAssembly is not automatically included in every delivery. Where you want it, say so when the delivery or move is quoted and it is scoped in rather than assumed.
What people normally have to ask by phone before they can decide whether to book.
Yes. Furniture assembly and installation service calls are handled across the Greater Montreal Area for homes, apartments, condos, offices, retail spaces and hospitality properties. Larger commercial, hospitality and FF&E installation programs can also be coordinated in major Canadian markets according to project size.
Yes. Where the furniture came from and who delivered it does not matter — the scope is what is being assembled, where it is, and what access the space has. Send the item list with model names or links and the quote is built from that.
Yes. Desks, height-adjustable bases, task chairs, storage and filing, conference and boardroom furniture, and workstations and modular systems where the scope supports it. Office installation can run by floor, area or department, and after-hours or weekend windows are supported where the building requires them.
Yes. Designer and high-value furniture is handled under project-specific instructions, placement is executed against renders, floor plans and furniture schedules, and neutral unbranded crew presentation is available on request for client-facing installations and model suites.
Yes. Supply the floor plan, render, furniture schedule or written placement instructions and the crew works from it. Where a plan and the physical space disagree — a piece that will not fit the wall it was drawn against, for example — the crew raises it rather than guessing.
Standard artwork and mirror mounting is part of a normal installation scope, along with accessories and miscellaneous non-licensed fixtures. Highly specialized mounting systems, unusually heavy stone or marble pieces, and anything requiring specialty rigging are reviewed and priced separately.
Yes. Crews carry standard professional tools and installation equipment appropriate to the approved scope. What they cannot bring is manufacturer-specific hardware, which needs to accompany the furniture.
It is documented and escalated so the manufacturer or supplier can supply the correct part. Unauthorized hardware is not substituted and pieces are not modified to work around a missing component, because that voids warranties and can turn a missing screw into a damaged asset.
Yes. Moving boxed or assembled furniture into position, between rooms or between floors is part of a normal installation scope. Where the furniture also has to arrive from somewhere, delivery and assembly can be coordinated under one project.
Yes. Cartons, protective wrap and assembly waste are consolidated and removed at the end of the job as part of a standard scope, so the space is left clean rather than full of flattened boxes.
Yes. High-value and designer pieces are handled under project-specific instructions, with site protection in place and deficiencies documented rather than improvised. Any piece needing specialty rigging or a certified manufacturer installer is identified during scope review.
Both. A single installer visit suits a room of flat-pack furniture or a short punch-list; larger crews are assigned for office installations, model suites and multi-unit or phased programs. Crew size is part of the quoted scope.
Smaller assembly and installation service calls are focused on the Greater Montreal Area. Larger commercial, hospitality and FF&E installation programs can be coordinated in major Canadian markets according to project size and requirements, with travel and mobilization quoted upfront.
Yes. Assembly and installation are quoted flat-rate against the agreed scope and confirmed before the crew is scheduled. There is no published hourly rate or per-item price, because access, mounting and complexity change the job more than the item count does.
Yes, and it is usually more efficient that way. Where furniture is being delivered or a move is happening, assembly can be scoped into the same project so there is one access plan, one elevator booking and often one crew. Assembly is not automatically included in every delivery, so ask for it when the delivery or move is quoted.
Assembly and installation intake
The item list and the access are what decide the number. Anything you do not know yet can be left blank — we will ask if it matters.
Send the item list and the access details and you will get one number for the scope, not a range that changes once the crew is standing in the room.
