IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Liverpool Street, EC2
We assemble in Liverpool Street the way the stock demands: serviced apartments and warehouse conversions on the spitalfields fringe, a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot — and concierge sign-in — a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here. Everything is levelled to the floor in the room, not the floor the instruction sheet assumes.

How it works
How a Liverpool Street assembly visit works
- Send the list, get a fixed pricePhotograph the delivery stack and the room it is going in. We size the slot for Liverpool Street, confirm the access route and put the whole figure in writing the same working day.
- Access sorted for EC2Access is arranged before the day: a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot — and concierge sign-in — a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here, with the City of London Corporation permit paid for by us.
- Built, anchored, packaging goneDust sheets down, every unit built and squared, doors and drawers adjusted, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud — and a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork — which is why City of London Corporation kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, then the cardboard flattened and taken away.

Scope
What is included in Liverpool Street
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Liverpool Street list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- Anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud — and a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork — which is why City of London Corporation kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded
- Standard on City of London bookings: doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, allowing for the 48% of EC2 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- A stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall, noted on the Liverpool Street job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- City of London Corporation permits or bay suspensions where EC2 needs one
Not included — and why
- New electrical circuits, consumer-unit work or anything notifiable under Part P — that belongs to a registered electrician, and we will say so before the EC2 visit rather than on the day
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, handled by City of London Corporation or a specialist contractor instead
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately), which we refer on to the right trade in Liverpool Street
- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt, quoted separately if you need it arranged in EC2
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, handled by City of London Corporation or a specialist contractor instead
The complete item list, anchoring matrix and scope policy sit on one page: assembly reference.
Why Hello Services
Why book assembly in Liverpool Street with us
We scan before we drill
Cable and pipe detector on every wall, with Broadgate Circle a few streets away — and City of London parking rules in play, because in EC2, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever the sheet off its dabs — where 37% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the callback nobody wants in Liverpool Street.
Packaging leaves with us
Flattened cardboard, polystyrene and strapping go in the van at the end of the Liverpool Street visit in Liverpool Street, with 2% of Liverpool Street homes being houses.
Permits and access handled
City of London Corporation permits, bay suspensions, concierge sign-in and goods-lift booking are arranged by us around Liverpool Street (Central, Circle, Elizabeth line, National Rail), with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.

The most-booked London slot: a bedroom's worth of boxes in one visit, one price.
- Parking and permits
- Broadgate estate has its own access rules and booked bays; surrounding streets are red-route controlled. City of London Corporation visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Part of City of London sits inside the Congestion Charge zone and all of it is inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and that cost is never added to a EC2 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 98% of homes around Liverpool Street 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 EC2 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.

What holds an anti-tip strap in Liverpool Street
Most likely here
Liverpool Street gives us post-2010 apartments lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, which is what a 98% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Liverpool Street actually produces

Liverpool Street (Central, Circle, Elizabeth line, National Rail) is the nearest station, and City of London Corporation controls the kerb outside, so the permit is bought before the van leaves rather than argued about on arrival.

Questions
Liverpool Street EC2 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 EC2 is £190 for a batched list.
Every unit designed to be restrained gets restrained. Because EC2 walls are typically with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block — the reality on the streets around Broadgate Circle, the fixing we carry is or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud — and a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork — which is why City of London Corporation kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded — chosen on site after a cable and pipe scan, then load-tested in front of you.
Usually yes. A booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot, over concierge sign-in, the pattern behind 4,914 households inside the EC2 neighbourhood. Broadgate estate has its own access rules and booked bays; surrounding streets are red-route controlled. City of London Corporation permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us before the visit.
All of it. Flattened cardboard, polystyrene, plastic strapping and the offcuts leave with us at the end of the Liverpool Street visit and go to a licensed transfer station — we are a registered waste carrier.
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 Liverpool Street 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 Liverpool Street landing.
