Flat-pack assembly in Westminster

We work in Westminster every week — government, embassies and west end retail beside stucco belgravia terraces and church street market flats. Flat-pack assembly is priced against that reality, not a national average.

What a flat-pack build costs in Westminster. 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. The borough-specific additions here come from the Congestion Charge, ULEZ and permit-only frontages.
Flat-pack assembly price guide for Westminster
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Chest of drawers or bedside units£4530–50 minA single carcass with drawer runners — the fastest item in the catalogue.
Double or king bed frame£6545–90 minSlats, side rails and a headboard, with the frame squared so it does not creak later.
Two-door wardrobe£851.5–2 hrsDoors have to be aligned on the hinges and the carcass anchored to the wall.
Sliding-door or corner wardrobe£1502.5–4 hrsSliding tracks must be dead level or the doors drift; corner units need building in place.
Desk, bookcase or shelving unit£5040–70 minQuick to build, but tall units are anchored to the wall as standard.
Full room, priced by the hour£45/hrBy quoteBedroom or nursery sets are cheaper by the hour than item by item once you pass three pieces.

Prices assume the boxes are on site and the parts are complete. Anti-tip anchoring is included on every tall unit. Rubbish removal of the packaging is free where the crew has kerb access; where a permit or bay suspension is required for the van it is itemised in the quote.

Working in Westminster

Why Westminster is not a generic London job

The Palace of Westminster and Big Ben is the landmark; the working detail below is what actually changes the price and the method in Westminster.

The housing stock

Westminster is built from grade-listed stucco terraces, mansion blocks, peabody estates and prime new-build around victoria, and the mix changes street by street — Belgravia (SW1), Covent Garden (WC2) and Fitzrovia (W1) each behave differently on the day.

Access, parking and permits

Parking is the job before the job here: congestion charge, ulez, dense cpzs operating to 18:30 and beyond — most jobs need a suspended bay or dispensation. Locally that means estate parking rules, mews arches with height limits and listed staircases requiring protection and pedestrianised piazza with timed vehicle access only, and narrow stairs above shops. Part of Westminster sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, so the charge is quoted as its own line rather than hidden in the labour rate.

Westminster City Council rules

Most flats in Westminster are leasehold, and managing agents here routinely ask for a public liability certificate and a method note before a contractor drills anything. We send both with the booking confirmation.

How the borough got this way

Grew from the abbey and royal court; the Grosvenor and Portman estates laid out the stucco squares still standing today. That history is why Westminster property behaves the way it does today.

Local questions

Flat-pack assembly in Westminster — your questions

  • How much does a flat-pack build cost in Westminster?

    Chest of drawers or bedside units starts at £45 in Westminster, and the ladder runs up to £45/hr for the largest job on the table above. 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. Part of the borough is inside the Congestion Charge zone, so a £15 daily charge is added as its own line when the job falls inside the charging hours.

  • Which Westminster postcodes do you cover?

    We cover the whole borough: NW1, NW8, SW1, SW7, W1, W2, W9, WC1 and WC2. On the ground that includes Belgravia, Covent Garden, Fitzrovia, Knightsbridge, Maida Vale and Marylebone.

  • How quickly can you get to Westminster?

    Next-day slots are usually available and we hold Saturday appointments for delivery days. Central London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.

  • What about parking and permits in Westminster?

    Congestion Charge, ULEZ, dense CPZs operating to 18:30 and beyond — most jobs need a suspended bay or dispensation. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with Westminster City Council and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.

  • Do you work in Westminster flats and blocks with no lift?

    Yes. Grade-listed stucco terraces, mansion blocks, Peabody estates and prime new-build around Victoria is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.

  • Are you insured and licensed for work in Westminster?

    Fitters carry £1m public liability cover and anchor every tall unit, which is both the manufacturer's instruction and what building-safety-conscious managing agents expect. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what Westminster City Council tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.

  • Who turns up, and with what?

    One fitter for most items; two for sliding-door wardrobes, bunk beds and anything that has to be carried up a shared stairwell. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Westminster postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.

  • What is not included?

    Missing or damaged parts — we will fit what arrives and return once the replacement lands, Fitted kitchens and built-in wardrobes, which are a joinery job and Electrical connection of integrated appliances. If something on that list turns up in Westminster, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

Really pleased to have used Hello Services. We had a shed we needed assembling, and Adam made sure it went up smoothly. It was such a relief to see him assess the base, judge what needed doing, and then at the end of the day a brand new shed was standing strong and tall in… Read in full →

I booked the services for putting together some new bedroom furniture. This was agreed for 3 pm. I got a call at 3pm to say they were going to be late and be there at 5, they arrived at 5:30. The workmanship and the guys who fitted it was excellent and they were very friendly… Read in full →
