The service, locally
Bed assembly in Mottingham
We seat the centre rail and its legs on the floor, torque in sequence, then re-check once the slats are in. Bunks, sleepers and cots get a safety check against the published standard before the mattress goes on.
Same-day and evening slots exist for a reason — a mattress arrives, the old bed is already dismantled, and nobody wants to sleep on the floor. Tell us the delivery window and we book the SE9 slot behind it for £35.

- Send the bed, get a fixed pricePhotograph the delivery stack and the bedroom it is going in. We size the slot for Mottingham, confirm the access route and put the whole figure in writing the same working day.
- Access and slot sorted for SE9Access is settled before the day: deck access or one lift shared with the whole block in Mottingham, so we book a delivery window rather than gamble, and with 17% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, with the London Borough of Bromley permit arranged and paid for by us.
- Built, checked, packaging goneDust sheets down, the frame built in the room, the frame squared before final tightening in SE9, then every fixing checked in sequence and the room swept, measured on the walk in from Mottingham (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map, then the cardboard flattened and taken away.

Scope
What is included in Mottingham
Included in every visit
- Every frame on your Mottingham list built in the room it is staying in, squared and levelled to the floor you have
- On SE9 jobs: centre support rails and legs seated properly, slats and slat holders set so the frame does not creak, slat holders included
- Standard on Bromley bookings: every bolt torqued in sequence, then re-checked once the slats and mattress are in place, with 3,789 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Safety checks on bunks, sleepers and cots against BS EN 747 and BS EN 716 — the frame squared before final tightening in SE9, then every fixing checked in sequence and the room swept, measured on the walk in from Mottingham (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map
Not included — and why
- Mattress supply and delivery — we build around the mattress you have ordered rather than selling you one, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE9
- Wall-fixed headboards into a wall that needs new structure or a stud repair first (we will quote that as handyman work), outside the fixed price on Mottingham bookings
- Manufacturer spare parts: missing bolts, cams or damaged panels are photographed and ordered at cost with the receipt, and we will say so before the SE9 visit rather than on the day
- Removal of an old bed, which is quoted alongside the build and carried out under our waste carrier licence, handled by London Borough of Bromley or a specialist contractor instead

- Room constraint

The stock here is Mottingham gives us council and housing-association blocks with consistent room sizes and lift-served floors, which is what a 25% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Mottingham actually produces, and the constraint we plan around is a compact second bedroom where a bunk or a cabin bed buys back the floor a single frame wastes, as the Mottingham stock goes, the pattern behind 3,789 households inside the SE9 neighbourhood.
30% of Mottingham households are one-person, which is why single frames and headboard fittings outnumber whole-house bunk days here.
Mottingham (Southeastern) is the nearest station and London Borough of Bromley controls the kerb outside, so the permit is bought before the van leaves rather than argued about on the pavement.
We carry bolts, cams, barrel nuts, lock washers and common slat holders, so most short-shipped packs still finish the same visit. Missing or damaged manufacturer parts are photographed on the spot with the model and part number, so your replacement is ordered the same day rather than after a wasted evening.

Questions
Mottingham SE9 bed assembly questions
A Mottingham single or double is from £45 and a king from £65. Ottomans are £85 because the lifting mechanism has to be balanced, bunks £95 and cots £55. Hourly cover for unlabelled or part-built frames is £55, minimum one hour.
Allow an hour for a single or double, around eighty minutes for a king, and roughly two hours for an ottoman once the gas struts are balanced. Bunks and cabin beds run to two and a half hours in Mottingham because the frame squared before final tightening in SE9, then every fixing checked in sequence and the room swept, measured on the walk in from Mottingham (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map.
Yes — every Mottingham bunk, high sleeper and cot is built strictly to the instructions and verified against BS EN 747 or BS EN 716 before we sign it off. The frame squared before final tightening in SE9, then every fixing checked in sequence and the room swept, measured on the walk in from Mottingham (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map.
We work with your own mattress rather than supplying one. If it is being delivered the same day, tell us the window and we hold a Mottingham slot after it so the bed is made up the same evening — that slot carries a small same-day charge, confirmed in writing first.
Dismantling is priced per bed and booked into the same SE9 visit, so nothing is left blocking a hallway. If the frame is being scrapped it leaves with us for licensed disposal rather than going out beside the bins.
