The service, locally
Bed assembly in Petts Wood
The price you are quoted is the price you pay: per bed, agreed in writing, with the carry, the London Borough of Bromley permit and taking the packaging away already inside it.
If the old bed has to come out first, we take it apart, bag and label the fixings, and either stack it flat or remove it under our waste carrier licence. It happens in the same visit, not a second one.

How it works
How a Petts Wood bed assembly visit works
- Send the bed, get a fixed priceTell us what is arriving — a double frame, a bunk, an ottoman — and we itemise it per bed, so you can see what each build costs before you accept anything.
- Access and slot sorted for BR5We book the London Borough of Bromley permit or bay suspension, and where it applies then a straight stair with a turn at the top, over kerbside or driveway unloading, the reality on the streets around The Willett Memorial Wood.
- Built, checked, packaging goneEvery joint torqued in sequence, slats seated, and the visit closed with guard-rail height measured above the mattress; locally that also means ladder fixings torqued at both ends and every gap checked against BS EN 747, which is why London Borough of Bromley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded before the packaging leaves in the van.

Scope
What is included in Petts Wood
Included in every visit
- Every frame on your Petts Wood list built in the room it is staying in, squared and levelled to the floor you have
- On BR5 jobs: centre support rails and legs seated properly, slats and slat holders set so the frame does not creak, with 8% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
- Standard on Bromley bookings: every bolt torqued in sequence, then re-checked once the slats and mattress are in place, arranged with London Borough of Bromley where the kerb needs it
- Safety checks on bunks, sleepers and cots against BS EN 747 and BS EN 716 — guard-rail height measured above the mattress; locally that also means ladder fixings torqued at both ends and every gap checked against BS EN 747, which is why London Borough of Bromley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded
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 BR5
- 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 Petts Wood 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 BR5 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

- The check that closes the visit
- guard-rail height measured above the mattress; locally that also means ladder fixings torqued at both ends and every gap checked against BS EN 747, which is why London Borough of Bromley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded

Questions
Petts Wood BR5 bed assembly questions
A Petts Wood 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 Petts Wood because guard-rail height measured above the mattress; locally that also means ladder fixings torqued at both ends and every gap checked against BS EN 747, which is why London Borough of Bromley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Bunks, mid sleepers, high sleepers and cots are built to the maker's instructions and checked against BS EN 747 (bunk and high beds) or BS EN 716 (cots). Guard-rail height measured above the mattress; locally that also means ladder fixings torqued at both ends and every gap checked against BS EN 747, which is why London Borough of Bromley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. Near The Willett Memorial Wood that usually means an earlier start so the van can be unloaded once.
Mattresses stay with you; we build the frame around whatever arrives. Give us the delivery window and we slot the BR5 visit behind it so the bed is usable that night. Same-day timing costs a little more and is priced before you commit.
We can strip the old frame out before the new one goes up. It is quoted as its own line, the bolts come away bagged and labelled if the bed is moving on, and disposal runs under our registered waste carrier licence with a transfer note on request. Near The Willett Memorial Wood that usually means an earlier start so the van can be unloaded once.
