Greenwich · SE10 · Flat-pack assembly
IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Greenwich, SE10
Two Greenwich flats on the same street can take a different amount of time for the same wardrobe, and the reason is the substrate: dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block in SE10, with metal stud partitions between rooms, and with 32% one-person households in Greenwich, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. We bring the fixings for it rather than trusting the bag in the box.

How it works
How a Greenwich assembly visit works
- Send the list, get a fixed priceTell us what is in the pile — model names, box counts or just a photo. Every Greenwich quote is itemised per unit, so you can see what each build costs before you accept it.
- Access sorted for SE10Access 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 33 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here, with the Royal Borough of Greenwich permit paid for by us.
- Built, anchored, packaging goneEach unit is torqued, squared and load-tested, tall pieces are strapped using a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork; locally that also means or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud, and with 31% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, and the flat is left cleaner than the delivery left it.

Scope
What is included in Greenwich
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Greenwich list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- Standard on Greenwich bookings: anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork; locally that also means or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud, and with 31% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, arranged with Royal Borough of Greenwich where the kerb needs it
- On SE10 jobs: doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, with 73% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
- In Greenwich: a stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall, the way it is done on Greenwich jobs
- Royal Borough of Greenwich permits or bay suspensions where SE10 needs one
Not included — and why
- New electrical circuits, consumer-unit work or anything notifiable under Part P — that belongs to a registered electrician, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE10
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, which we refer on to the right trade in Greenwich
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately), and we will say so before the SE10 visit rather than on the day
- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt, outside the fixed price on Greenwich bookings
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, which we refer on to the right trade in Greenwich
The complete item list, anchoring matrix and scope policy sit on one page: assembly reference.

The most-booked London slot: a bedroom's worth of boxes in one visit, one price.
- Parking and permits
- Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access. 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 SE10 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 73% of homes around Greenwich 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 SE10 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.

IKEA and flat-pack assembly reviews from Greater London customers
4.5 ★ from 3,131 Trustpilot reviewsReally 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.

Sulltan and Adam were absolutely brilliant. They assembled some complicated IKEA items perfectly. They were really helpful and left assembly areas clean and tidy. I have no hesitation in recommending their services.

Questions
Greenwich SE10 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 SE10 is £190 for a batched list.
Yes, and it is included. Around SE10 we are fixing into dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block in SE10, with metal stud partitions between rooms, and with 32% one-person households in Greenwich, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site, so we use a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork; locally that also means or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud, and with 31% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. Every wall is scanned for cable and pipe first, and each strap is load-tested before we leave.
Usually yes. Concierge sign-in in SE10, a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot — and with 31% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access. Royal Borough of Greenwich permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us before the visit.
The packaging goes in the van at the end of the visit — cardboard, polystyrene, plastic wrap and offcuts — so your SE10 flat is usable the same evening. We are a registered waste carrier and can provide a transfer note.
Most missing-part problems are solved from our own fixings stock while the fitter is still in the room. A damaged panel is different — we log it with photographs and the article number so your SE10 replacement is straightforward, then return to complete the build free of charge.
Yes — dismantling the old wardrobe or bed is priced in the same written quote, and the parts leave with us for licensed disposal instead of stacking up in a SE10 hallway or communal bin store.
