Verified record
Greater Boston Assembly is a Brookline one-person furniture assembly service — the guy customers call, by name, when a bed frame, desk, or dresser needs to go together right. Gregory runs it, and every review describes him personally on the job. Across 11 Google reviews from 2024 through early 2026, the pattern holds: a queen bed frame put together with close communication about arrival and setup, an UPLIFT standing desk and SecretLab gaming chair built while a customer recovered from back surgery, a desk and nightstand assembled and a piece hung on the wall with everything left clean before he finished. Several reviewers say he also helps with moving-day logistics — one review describes him packing belongings into a storage unit and later building furniture back out of it, and another describes two movers he sent on a last-minute job as efficient and friendly. There's no verified license or BBB record here — furniture assembly generally isn't the kind of work that requires state contractor registration, so that's expected rather than a gap. Its Angi/HomeAdvisor profile is brand new with no reviews there yet. For apartment moves, new furniture that needs building, or an urgent last-minute assembly job, this reads like a dependable, communicative call — the history so far is all Google reviews and all five stars, so ask directly about availability and pricing since neither is spelled out publicly yet.

Professional, kind and to the tee when it comes to perfection of your furniture. Gregory went above and beyond to stay in close loop communication about the arrival and assembly of our bed frame. I would highly recommend him!
It was an amazing experience made my life so much easier by helping me move in he was quick responsive very professional amazing assembly I highly recommend him for any furniture assembly and moving in great guy as well very respectful and knows everything about what he’s doing thank you
I recently moved to a new apartment and had some furniture delivered. Greg assembled a desk, nightstand, and hung a piece on the wall for me. He was professional and personable throughout the process, and went the extra mile to make sure everything was clean and tidy before the job was complete. Competitive pricing, too. Would highly recommend for any of your assembly needs.
Gregory assembled an UPLIFT desk and SecretLab chair for me at my apartment. He brought all the necessary tools and he was on time, professional and efficient. I just had back surgery and could not have managed this on my own. I highly recommend this service.
Wow!!! Gregory set up the most amazing business in the area!!! I would unequivocally recommend him for assembly needs. He was so communicative, reasonably priced, arrived on time and so friendly to my kids who sat awkwardly in awe to watch him:). Service went above and beyond for us in so many ways, and have already witnessed the most superb bed assembly and dissembling that I’ve ever seen! We were happy to tip him well and hire him back for next week (and hopefully many many more times to come!) This company is hidden A++++ gem in area, and I’m almost reluctant to post this so that we still can have such awesome ease of booking and amazing crew haha. But in the community spirit, I definitely wanted to share that if you need something assembled with reasonable time expectations, quality, non price gorging, and friendliness- this is truly a boston area best! Sorta shocked this hasn’t actually made the boston mag “best of” yet, and flies under the radar, but I’m so grateful we found before they get too famous:).
