Why Pay More? Desk Installation £50 | Yo-Yo DESK®
When choosing a standing desk, the desk itself is the main event—but installation matters too. You want it done right, quickly, and affordably. That’s why Yo-Yo DESK® offers professional installation for just £50 + VAT. Clear, simple, and fairly priced.
Some companies charge more—over £130 + VAT in some cases—for essentially the same service. We think it’s important to explain our pricing approach and give you the facts, so you can choose what’s right for your workspace and budget.
What Does Installation Include?
Whether you choose Yo-Yo Desk®, ErgoDesk, Friska, or any other brand, standing desk installation typically involves:
- Assembling the desk safely and correctly
- Testing the motor and electronics
- Positioning it in your room
- Cleaning up and removing packaging
Comparing Installation Pricing
Some brands charge up to £130 + VAT for what is essentially the same one-hour task. That’s more than double. It’s important to ask—are you paying for added value, or just higher overheads?We’ve chosen to keep our price realistic. We believe installation should be an optional, helpful service—not a hidden cost or profit driver.If you're unsure which setup is right for you, check out our Installation Options & Delivery Guide.
