Overview
Flat-pack assembly in Bexley Village DA5, explained
Flat-pack assembly in Bexley Village DA5 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Bexley, most of them mainly Victorian. 3,319 households sit inside this DA5 patch, 21% of them flats, so we quote on access near Hall Place and Gardens rather than a London average.
How it works
How flat-pack assembly works in Bexley Village
Five steps, the same on every DA5 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Bexley Village gives us inter-war and post-war semis with timber stud partitions and cavity outer walls, a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Parts check
Boxes opened and the parts list checked before anything is built, so a missing dowel is found at the start and not at the end.
Step 2
Build in the right room
Anything that will not fit through a London doorway once built is assembled where it stands.
Step 3
Square and level
Carcasses squared before the backs go on — the step that stops doors dropping six months later.
Step 4
Anchor and align
Tall units strapped or bracketed to the wall, hinges and drawer fronts adjusted.
Step 5
Clear the packaging
Cardboard flattened and taken away, floor checked for stray fixings.
Why choose us
Why Bexley Village customers book us
Four things decide whether a DA5 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Booked around your day
Next-day slots are usually available and we hold Saturday appointments for delivery days. Bexley (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a DA5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Bexley Village walls, not generic walls
We expect timber stud partitions inside in DA5, cavity brickwork outside — the reality on the streets around Hall Place and Gardens in DA5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in DA5, a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air — and narrow village lanes with a one-way section; driveways on the newer roads.
Insured and documented
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and anchor every tall unit, which is both the manufacturer's instruction and what building-safety-conscious managing agents expect.
Fixed prices
Flat-pack assembly prices in Bexley Village
Fixed prices for DA5 and the rest of Bexley. Item count and the type of unit set the price. Sliding-door wardrobes, bunk beds and corner units take two to four times as long as a chest of drawers.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chest of drawers or bedside units | £45 | 30–50 min | A single carcass with drawer runners — the fastest item in the catalogue. |
| Double or king bed frame | £65 | 45–90 min | Slats, side rails and a headboard, with the frame squared so it does not creak later. |
| Two-door wardrobe | £85 | 1.5–2 hrs | Doors have to be aligned on the hinges and the carcass anchored to the wall. |
| Sliding-door or corner wardrobe | £150 | 2.5–4 hrs | Sliding tracks must be dead level or the doors drift; corner units need building in place. |
| Desk, bookcase or shelving unit | £50 | 40–70 min | Quick to build, but tall units are anchored to the wall as standard. |
| Full room, priced by the hour | £45/hr | By quote | Bedroom or nursery sets are cheaper by the hour than item by item once you pass three pieces. |

Really pleased with our house move. The guys came on time, loaded everything carefully like a huge jigsaw! Nothing got broken and even though they were working on an hourly rate they were really efficient, not to waste any time.
