Overview
Flat-pack assembly in Greenwich SE10, explained
Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around Cutty Sark, flat-pack assembly here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 73% of Greenwich's 17,397 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SE10 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How flat-pack assembly works in Greenwich
Five steps, the same on every SE10 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard on these streets — measured on the walk in from Cutty Sark (DLR) rather than assumed from a map 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 Greenwich customers book us
What follows is specific to Greenwich: its walls, its access and the paperwork Greenwich agents ask for.
Crew sized to the job
One fitter for most items; two for sliding-door wardrobes, bunk beds and anything that has to be carried up a shared stairwell. Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access.
Booked around your day
Next-day slots are usually available and we hold Saturday appointments for delivery days. Cutty Sark (DLR) is the nearest station, so a SE10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Greenwich walls, not generic walls
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, and with 32% one-person households in Greenwich, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SE10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Greenwich gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, where 40% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Fixed prices
Flat-pack assembly prices in Greenwich
Fixed prices for SE10 and the rest of Greenwich. 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. |

Scope
What's included in Greenwich
The same scope across SE10, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: assembly to the manufacturer's instructions, with every fixing checked and tightened, allowing for the 31% of SE10 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Anti-tip wall anchoring on wardrobes, bookcases and tall drawer units, noted on the Greenwich job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Greenwich: doors and drawers aligned, sliding tracks levelled, timed against the walk in from Cutty Sark (DLR)
- On SE10 jobs: flat-pack cardboard and polystyrene taken away, agreed on the doorstep in Greenwich before anything is unpacked
Not included
- Missing or damaged parts — we will fit what arrives and return once the replacement lands, handled by Royal Borough of Greenwich or a specialist contractor instead
- Fitted kitchens and built-in wardrobes, which are a joinery job, which we refer on to the right trade in Greenwich
- Electrical connection of integrated appliances, outside the fixed price on Greenwich bookings

Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.

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. Our only criticism is that we needed a few items disassembled to get on the… Read in full →

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Greenwich — the numbers that actually change a flat-pack assembly quote.
17,397 households sit inside the SE10 neighbourhood covering Greenwich. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile mixed-tenure, and 73% of those homes are flats.
With 31% private renting against 40% owner-occupied, most SE10 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Greenwich substrates run to with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, and with 32% one-person households in Greenwich, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Greenwich gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, where 40% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the mistake that costs a SE10 customer twice.
World Heritage centre of the market, the Cutty Sark and the Observatory on the hill. That character decides the practical detail of flat-pack assembly here far more than the borough boundary does. Greenwich is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access — one reason one fitter for most items; two for sliding-door wardrobes, bunk beds and anything that has to be carried up a shared stairwell. Fitters travelling in use Cutty Sark (DLR).

Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions for Greenwich (SE10) addresses, with this being a short walk from Cutty Sark (DLR).

How long does flat-pack assembly take in Greenwich?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level around Cutty Sark (DLR), with 29% social-rented stock nearby.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Greenwich doorway?

With 73% of Greenwich homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on the streets near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark — and 17,397 households on this patch, with 40% owner-occupation locally, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.

Who books flat-pack assembly in Greenwich SE10 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 31% of Greenwich privately rented and 40% owner-occupied, roughly half the SE10 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door across SE10 — and 29% social-rented stock nearby, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory.

A SE10 slot added to an existing Greenwich round usually lands the same week rather than the next in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with Greenwich parking rules in play.
