Frequently Asked Questions

Services & Capabilities

We focus on practical home setup: furniture assembly, curtain and blind installation, ceiling fans, light fixtures, and move‑in or transition setup for homes, apartments, dorms, seniors, realtors, and stagers.

Yes. We do not mount TVs, do plumbing, electrical troubleshooting, appliance repair, or any work requiring permits or going beyond light‑duty home setup.

Most installations come from items purchased at IKEA, Amazon, Walmart, Wayfair, Target, Home Depot, and Lowe’s. If it comes in a box, needs assembly, or needs to be installed — we’ve probably done it hundreds of times.

Yes — we can disassemble most standard furniture items for moves, room changes, or returns. Disassembly is priced the same way as assembly, based on item type and complexity.

Putivo is generally a one‑human operation, but larger jobs may include additional team members when needed.

If an item cannot be installed due to size, structure, missing parts, or safety concerns, the visit will be treated as a cancellation.

Booking & Appointments

You can schedule directly through our website using the Book Now button, or by contacting us. You’ll receive a confirmation message with your appointment time.

After you book, we review the details to make sure everything is accurate. If anything needs clarification or if the job is larger than described, you’ll receive an email with notes or updates to approve.

Putivo serves the Williamsburg area, including Jamestown, Lightfoot, Norge, Toano, and Yorktown. Some addresses may include a small zone fee, which is always shown or confirmed before you book.

Yes, when the schedule allows. Same‑day and rush appointments may include an additional fee.

All bookings are reviewed before the appointment. If the job is larger than described or requires a quote, you’ll receive updated pricing to approve before any work begins.

If possible, have the items in the room where they’ll be installed and the area reasonably clear. We bring the tools needed for the work itself.

Each order includes a link to contact us or call us directly. Just reach out and we’ll help you move your appointment.

Orders cancelled within 2 hours of the appointment time will be charged a $25 cancellation fee.

Pricing & Payments

Pricing is based on item size, complexity, and the number of pieces or windows, built from real‑world experience with each type of installation. All pricing is shown clearly on the Pricing page and confirmed before any job is scheduled.

Many platforms charge by the hour, which often leads to slow work, cost overruns, and unpredictable bills. Putivo uses fixed pricing based on real experience, so you always know the exact cost before the work begins. No hourly padding, no upsells, no surprises.

Yes — if you have 3 or more curtains and rods that are exactly the same, a discount may apply. This does not apply to large or “monster” items.

For larger projects or first‑time customers, a deposit may be required to secure the appointment. A card is kept on file, and the remaining balance is billed instantly at completion.

If you request additional tasks during the appointment, an instant invoice is created and billed to the card on file.

Policies & Safety

Putivo is a small, owner‑operated service and does not currently carry separate contractor insurance. Because of that, we stay within light‑duty home setup and avoid high‑risk or structural work.

No. We do not haul away or dispose of packaging or trash. We can gather and stage boxes neatly for your regular trash or recycling.

Yes — we stay within light‑duty home setup and avoid high ladders, structural work, electrical troubleshooting, plumbing, or anything requiring permits.
