The service, locally
Bed assembly in Temple and Aldwych
The price you are quoted is the price you pay: per bed, agreed in writing, with the carry, the Westminster City Council 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 Temple and Aldwych 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 WC2We book the Westminster City Council permit or bay suspension, and where it applies concierge sign-in in WC2, a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window agreed before the slot, and with 46% one-person households in Temple and Aldwych, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
- Built, checked, packaging goneEvery joint torqued in sequence, slats seated, and the visit closed with the ottoman lifted and held loaded in WC2, strut rating matched to the mattress weight and the lift travel checked against the window, with 29% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first before the packaging leaves in the van.

Scope
What is included in Temple and Aldwych
Included in every visit
- Every frame on your Temple and Aldwych list built in the room it is staying in, squared and levelled to the floor you have
- On WC2 jobs: centre support rails and legs seated properly, slats and slat holders set so the frame does not creak, agreed on the doorstep in Temple and Aldwych before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Westminster bookings: every bolt torqued in sequence, then re-checked once the slats and mattress are in place, allowing for the 44% of WC2 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Safety checks on bunks, sleepers and cots against BS EN 747 and BS EN 716 — the ottoman lifted and held loaded in WC2, strut rating matched to the mattress weight and the lift travel checked against the window, with 29% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first
Not included — and why
- Mattress supply and delivery — we build around the mattress you have ordered rather than selling you one, handled by Westminster City Council or a specialist contractor instead
- Wall-fixed headboards into a wall that needs new structure or a stud repair first (we will quote that as handyman work), which we refer on to the right trade in Temple and Aldwych
- Manufacturer spare parts: missing bolts, cams or damaged panels are photographed and ordered at cost with the receipt, quoted separately if you need it arranged in WC2
- Removal of an old bed, which is quoted alongside the build and carried out under our waste carrier licence, outside the fixed price on Temple and Aldwych bookings
Why Hello Services
Why book bed assembly in Temple and Aldwych with us
Built silent, not just built
Every Temple and Aldwych frame is torqued in sequence, the centre rail seated on its legs in this 95% flats neighbourhood, with 44% of WC2 homes being privately rented, then rocked deliberately before we leave.
Priced per bed, not per hour
Your WC2 bed is quoted per unit in writing the same working day on this side of Westminster, with 95% of homes here being flats, with no doorstep re-quote when the box turns out heavy.
Safety standards, checked
For WC2 bookings, bunks and sleepers against BS EN 747, cots against BS EN 716 — guard-rail heights, gaps and ladder fixings measured, not eyeballed on this side of Westminster, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood. Around Temple (Circle, District) we allow for the parking and the walk-in before the slot is confirmed.
Same-day around your mattress
Tell us the delivery window and we hold a Temple and Aldwych slot behind it in this 95% flats neighbourhood, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood, so nobody sleeps on the floor.

Temple and Aldwych WC2 leads with these 8 rows because the local bedrooms produce the same order again and again: ottoman and gas-lift storage beds in Temple and Aldwych, because the flat has no loft and no cupboard to spare — and with 44% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. The rest of the 16-item list is priced identically.
£45 minimum per visit. Prices include VAT, the van, the tools and taking the flattened packaging away. Nothing is added on the day without your written agreement first. Prices assume the boxes are delivered to the room the bed is being built in. Where a king headboard or a divan base has to come up a winder stair we flag the carry from your photos before booking, never on the day.

- Part of Westminster sits inside the Congestion Charge zone and all of it is inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and neither charge ever appears on a WC2 invoice.
- Stairs, lifts and the carry
- 95% of homes around Temple and Aldwych are flats, so lift bookings and stair carries are agreed from your photos before the slot rather than discovered on the day.

Temple (Circle, District) is the nearest station and Westminster City Council controls the kerb outside, so the permit is bought before the van leaves rather than argued about on the pavement.
3,927 households sit inside the ONS neighbourhood covering Temple and Aldwych, and 95% of them are flats — which is why concierge sign-in in WC2 decides the slot length more often than the bed does.
Homes in Westminster average 2.03 bedrooms and 19% of households here have dependent children, so ottoman and gas-lift storage beds in Temple and Aldwych, because the flat has no loft and no cupboard to spare — and with 44% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the order we quote most around WC2.
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
Temple and Aldwych WC2 bed assembly questions
Per bed, fixed before we arrive: a single or double frame from £45, a king or super-king from £65, an ottoman storage bed from £85, a bunk from £95 and a cot from £55. Hourly work, for second-hand frames without instructions, is £55 an hour in WC2 with a one-hour minimum.
A standard frame is an hour's work; ottomans double that once the lifting mechanism is set and tested. Bunk and high-sleeper builds are the long ones — two to two and a half hours — since the ottoman lifted and held loaded in WC2, strut rating matched to the mattress weight and the lift travel checked against the window, with 29% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first. Batching two WC2 beds into one visit saves a second call-out fee.
Yes — every Temple and Aldwych 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 ottoman lifted and held loaded in WC2, strut rating matched to the mattress weight and the lift travel checked against the window, with 29% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
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 Temple and Aldwych slot after it so the bed is made up the same evening — that slot carries a small same-day charge, confirmed in writing first.
Yes. Taking the old bed apart is a fixed extra per bed, fixings bagged and labelled so it can go back together elsewhere. Where it is being thrown out we remove it under our waste carrier licence rather than leaving it on the Temple and Aldwych landing.
