Scope
What is included in Kensal Green and Kensal Rise
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Kensal Green and Kensal Rise list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- Anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: a strap fixed through the plaster into a located timber stud in Kensal Green and Kensal Rise, never into the lime plaster itself — and with 30% one-person households in Kensal Green and Kensal Rise, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site
- In Kensal Green and Kensal Rise: doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, sized for the narrow terraced streets, permit bays and railway bridges with height limits

Not included — and why
- New electrical circuits, consumer-unit work or anything notifiable under Part P — that belongs to a registered electrician, handled by London Borough of Brent or a specialist contractor instead
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, which we refer on to the right trade in Kensal Green and Kensal Rise

- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt, and we will say so before the NW10 visit rather than on the day
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, which we refer on to the right trade in Kensal Green and Kensal Rise
The complete item list, anchoring matrix and scope policy sit on one page: assembly reference.
Why Hello Services
Why book assembly in Kensal Green and Kensal Rise with us
Anchored, not just assembled

Priced per item, not per hour
Your NW10 list is quoted per unit in writing the same working day, with a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood, with no doorstep re-quote on the streets near Kensal Green Cemetery.
We scan before we drill
Cable and pipe detector on every wall, with 30% of NW10 homes being privately rented — and Kensal Green Cemetery a few streets away, because a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in Kensal Green and Kensal Rise on the streets near Kensal Green Cemetery, which crumbles the key and lets a loaded wardrobe walk forward — with 21% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is the callback nobody wants.

The most-booked London slot: a bedroom's worth of boxes in one visit, one price.
- Parking and permits
- Narrow terraced streets, permit bays and railway bridges with height limits. London Borough of Brent visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Brent sits outside the Congestion Charge zone and inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and that cost is never added to a NW10 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 55% of homes around Kensal Green and Kensal Rise are flats, so goods-lift booking and stair carries are planned before the slot rather than discovered on the day.
- Packaging removal
- Flattened cardboard, polystyrene and strapping leave in the van at the end of every NW10 visit, at no extra charge.
Wall plugs, through-fixings, resin anchors, hollow-wall anchors and anti-tip straps come out of the van and are inside the price. Replacement dowels, cam locks and manufacturer spare parts are ordered at cost with the receipt attached to your invoice.

Questions
Kensal Green and Kensal Rise NW10 flat-pack assembly questions
Per item, fixed before we arrive: bookcases and cube storage from £35, chests of drawers from £45, bed frames from £55, hinged wardrobes from £75 and modular wardrobe runs from £120 per 100cm frame. A half day in NW10 is £190 for a batched list.
Anchoring is part of the price, never an add-on. In Kensal Green and Kensal Rise the wall behind a wardrobe is normally with solid brick on the party walls, over lath and plaster over timber studs — where 49% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fitter uses a strap fixed through the plaster into a located timber stud in Kensal Green and Kensal Rise, never into the lime plaster itself — and with 30% one-person households in Kensal Green and Kensal Rise, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. We scan for cables and pipework first and pull-test the finished restraint.
Usually yes. So tall wardrobe panels are measured before the van is loaded — and communal stairs with a half-landing turn, the pattern behind 3,940 households inside the NW10 neighbourhood. Narrow terraced streets, permit bays and railway bridges with height limits. London Borough of Brent permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us before the visit.
Every scrap leaves with us: flattened cardboard, polystyrene corners, bags and strapping. Nothing is stacked in a Kensal Green and Kensal Rise hallway or communal bin store, and it all goes to a licensed transfer station under our waste carrier registration.
Short-shipped fixings rarely stop a build: the van carries dowels, cam locks, shelf pins and screws. If a panel itself is cracked we photograph it on the spot, record the article number for your replacement, and come back to Kensal Green and Kensal Rise to finish the unit with no second labour charge.
Yes. Take-down of existing furniture is quoted alongside the build, and where the old unit is being disposed of we can take it away under our waste carrier licence rather than leaving it on the Kensal Green and Kensal Rise landing.
