Top Chair Repair related questions

It all depends on the quality of the chair, how often you use it, and how well it's maintained. A typical office chair that is used for 40 hours per week lasts anywhere between six months to even five years or more. Chairs made with cheaper material may require replacement sooner while good quality ones can last longer with proper care and maintenance.
Some common office chair problems that require repair include sagging seat cushions, loose screws, and abrasive cleaning elements that cause scratches and marks. For wicker or cane chairs, low humidity and harsh weather conditions can cause the material to dry out as well as become brittle with age. Once you notice any signs of damage, make sure to get it inspected and fixed as soon as possible so you can avoid bigger and costlier repairs down the road.
It will depend on the type of chair and the extent and severity of the damage. Generally, a chair repair is a simple case of replacing any broken or defective parts and cleaning out any dirt and grime. This process can take anywhere between two to four hours. If you want to know how long your service will take, you can ask your Tasker, and they can easily give you an estimate.
With proper maintenance, you can extend the life of your chairs and retain their quality for years to come. From office chairs and cane chairs to wicker chairs, regular cleaning is ideal. A weekly vacuum can also eliminate any grime, dust, and dirt that can accumulate and become trapped in the crevices of your chair furniture.
Definitely! The best place to find experts near you is through Airtasker. With just one post, you can get in touch with a professional assembler who can put your chairs together for you. You can skip the headache of doing it yourself and even enjoy your new chairs right away. In case you want to place your new chairs in a fresh, modernized space, you can also hire a builder to get your patio or living room renovated!
Sure! With Airtasker, you can easily outsource all types of home maintenance work. We'll help you find local tradesmen and plumbers to fix your pipes, replace your taps or faucets, or install hot water systems to your home. In case your lights, wiring cables, and electrical system need work, we can also connect you with licensed electricians who can help you out while following all safety protocols.

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.

Carpenter Wanted to Make 3 Simple Chairs from Plans

£100

Hungershall Park, Kent

9th Jul 2025

We’re looking for a carpenter or maker to help build three chairs based on some attached plans. This is a fun, light-hearted project — the chairs are for casual use around the house or garden, and we’re not being precious about the outcome. We’re imagining a simple build using pine or plywood. They don’t need any fancy finishing — just sanded enough not to be rough to the touch. Raw, honest construction is part of the charm. What we’re looking for: – Source and supply the wood (ply or pine) – Build 3 chairs from the plans – Sand to remove roughness (no paint or finish needed) – Ideally deliver to Tunbridge Wells (or we can arrange collection) We’re open to suggestions or tweaks if they help make the build easier.

What I thought was going to be easy was more complex. But was handled without complaint. Really generous with there time and expertise. All positive.
