Greenwich · SE7 · Flat-pack assembly
IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Charlton, SE7
We assemble in Charlton the way the stock demands: victorian and edwardian terraces, 1930s semis and riverside new-build, deck access or a single lift shared with every other flat in Charlton, so we book a delivery window — where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year. Everything is levelled to the floor in the room, not the floor the instruction sheet assumes.

How it works
How a Charlton assembly visit works
- Send the list, get a fixed priceSend the item list or a photo of the boxes. We price each unit from the published SE7 list and confirm one written figure, including the anchoring your walls need.
- Access sorted for SE7Match-day restrictions at the Valley, steep village hill and riverside estate roads. We confirm the carry route for two-metre panels and reserve the kerb so the boxes move once.
- Built, anchored, packaging goneWe build in the room, level to the floor you actually have, adjust every hinge and runner, anchor with an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt; locally that also means set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable — with 38% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, and leave with all the packaging.

Scope
What is included in Charlton
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Charlton list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- On SE7 jobs: anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt; locally that also means set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable — with 38% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, agreed on the doorstep in Charlton before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, allowing for the 20% of SE7 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 Charlton job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Royal Borough of Greenwich permits or bay suspensions where SE7 needs one
Not included — and why
- New electrical circuits, consumer-unit work or anything notifiable under Part P — that belongs to a registered electrician, which we refer on to the right trade in Charlton
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE7
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately), outside the fixed price on Charlton bookings
- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt, and we will say so before the SE7 visit rather than on the day
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE7
The complete item list, anchoring matrix and scope policy sit on one page: assembly reference.

Cable and pipe detector on every wall, with 38% social-rented stock nearby — and 5,904 households on this patch, because in SE7, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a cable behind it — and with 20% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the callback nobody wants around Charlton (Southeastern).
Packaging leaves with us
Flattened cardboard, polystyrene and strapping go in the van at the end of the Charlton visit around Charlton (Southeastern), with a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood.
Permits and access handled
Royal Borough of Greenwich permits, bay suspensions, concierge sign-in and goods-lift booking are arranged by us on SE7 jobs, with 48% of homes here being flats.

The most-booked London slot: a bedroom's worth of boxes in one visit, one price.
- Parking and permits
- Match-day restrictions at the Valley, steep village hill and riverside estate roads. Royal Borough of Greenwich visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Greenwich sits outside the Congestion Charge zone and inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and that cost is never added to a SE7 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 48% of homes around Charlton 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 SE7 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 Charlton
Most likely here
Charlton gives us council and housing-association blocks in precast concrete and dense block, the reality on the streets around Charlton House
- Wall construction
- often with surface-run conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — which is what a 48% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Charlton actually produces
- The fixing we use
- an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt; locally that also means set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable — with 38% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first
- Access
- deck access or a single lift shared with every other flat in Charlton, so we book a delivery window — where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year
Charlton (Southeastern) is the nearest station, and Royal Borough of Greenwich controls the kerb outside, so the permit is bought before the van leaves rather than argued about on arrival.

Questions
Charlton SE7 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 SE7 is £190 for a batched list.
Yes, and it is included. Around SE7 we are fixing into often with surface-run conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — which is what a 48% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Charlton actually produces, so we use an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt; locally that also means set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable — with 38% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first. Every wall is scanned for cable and pipe first, and each strap is load-tested before we leave.
Usually yes. Deck access or a single lift shared with every other flat in SE7, so we book a delivery window, where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year. Match-day restrictions at the Valley, steep village hill and riverside estate roads. Royal Borough of Greenwich 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 Charlton visit and go to a licensed transfer station — we are a registered waste carrier.
We carry dowels, cam locks, screws and common fittings, so most short-shipped packs are finished the same Charlton visit. Where a panel is damaged we photograph it, note the article number for your retailer claim, and return to finish at no extra labour charge.
For SE7 bookings, we can strip out and remove what is already there before the new units go in. It is quoted as a line of its own, and disposal runs under our registered waste carrier licence with a transfer note on request. It works the same way on every Charlton (SE7) booking.
