What do chair repair services include?

Chair repair services cover all the steps necessary to get your chairs back in good working condition. Whether you need an office chair, cane chair, or wicker chair repaired, we can help you find a skilled repair handyman who can restore your chairs accordingly. They can inspect your chair for damages or defects and offer you the best, most cost-effective solution. For a better idea of what we can do for you, here are some common chair repair requests:


Office chair repair

With features like lumbar support and a unique ergonomic design, having comfortable and high-quality office chairs can significantly impact your efficiency and productivity. When your office chair looks like it has seen better days, you can hire a Tasker for an office chair repair.


Depending on the damage or problem, they can tighten any loose screws or bolts and replace any broken or worn-out components such as the cushion pads, tension springs, and lifting mechanisms. For wobbling issues, they can check each leg for faults or defects and have them replaced with new ones as well. If the problem lies on your seat getting stuck and failing to move up or down, your Tasker can repair your office chair's hydraulic cylinder so your chair can work, look, and feel like new again.


Cane chair repair

Cane chairs are common home furniture items and can be placed wherever you like–whether in the dining room, garden, patio, lounge, or living room. If you've noticed a damaged or missing cane, Taskers can do a cane chair repair to help salvage your cane chair.


Starting by removing the old cane and spline, they can install a new pressed or pre-woven cane with a pattern of your choosing. In case you want to change the appearance of your chair completely, your Tasker can also help you out. Cane-backed chairs have sturdy frames that can hold not just interlaced canes but also cushion pads or upholstery.


Wicker chair repair

Wicker chairs, also known as peacock chairs, are created with traditional plant material like rattan. Light but well built, these chairs are ideal for areas where you can move furniture around such as patios and foyers. When you're looking to have your wicker chairs repaired, Taskers can do the work for you. If you have an outdoor wicker chair, your Tasker can work on inserting replacement reeds. Since the heat from sunlight can be drying, your chair can lose its lustre and have a dull, faded finish.


Indoor wicker chairs, on the other hand, tend to be more durable since they don't contain synthetic materials. However, they're more prone to wear and tear due to continuous use. To preserve your wicker furniture, your Tasker can thoroughly clean your chair, oil the area to avoid any splints, and even apply a new coat of paint for a brighter finish.

Hello! We need someone with the right tool to help us tighten the screws (or possibly re-screw) our 6 dining chairs.

Rocking Chair Repair

$150

Melbourne VIC, Australia

6th Aug 2025

I'm looking for a quote to fix an old rocking chair that's been in my family for a while. We were using it until quite recently when the creaking sounds became a bit worrying. It's very creaky and even feels like it's shifting a bit behind you as you rock. Part of what is needed is a diagnostic, but I imagine that the issues are related to broke spindles and also some separation that seems to be occurring. I would just like it to feel solid and safe.

Lovely guy, very kind and efficient.

Help Moving Armchairs, Mounting a Mirror & Fixing a Blind

$150

Burnley VIC 3121, Australia

11th Mar 2025

EXTRA $ IF DONE TONIGHT :) Hi there, I need a reliable and careful Airtasker to help with the following tasks at my home: 1. Move a new armchair upstairs (carefully, without damaging walls or flooring). 2. Take the old armchair downstairs and place it in the garage. 3. Mount a large mirror securely to the wall (you’ll need the right tools and expertise to ensure it’s safely installed). 4. Fix a roller blind – the chain that pulls it up and down has broken, and I need help either fixing or finding a suitable remedy. You’ll need to bring your own tools and have experience with wall mounting and minor repairs. Let me know if you have any questions! PS. I have provided pictures of the items so you can see if you will need to bring someone with you or not and if you feel comfortable with the items. The new armchair to be carried upstairs specs are: DIMENSIONS W: 1110 mm x D: 930 mm x H: 720 mm Seat Height: 440 mm Arm Height: 710 mm WEIGHT 33 kg Thanks!

Michael was fantastic! He was punctual, professional, friendly and handled everything with care and efficiency. Super friendly, knowledgeable, and well-prepared with the right tools. I highly recommend Michael for any handyman, mounting, carpentry or assembly tasks—already discussed booking him in for many other jobs I need done around the house. Thanks again, Michael!
