IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Greenwich, SE10
**Flat-pack assembly in Greenwich**, SE10: georgian terraces, listed conversions and 1980s riverside flats, so the strap on a tall unit goes into dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block, with metal stud partitions between rooms. The order we see most here is a modular wardrobe run and a sofa on handover day, built the same week the keys land, and the callback we are asked to fix is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever the sheet off its dabs.
- From £35 an item, £190 a half day — priced per unit, fixed in writing
- dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block, with metal stud partitions between rooms here, so the anti-tip strap goes into something structural
- Concierge sign-in, a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot
- Royal Borough of Greenwich permits, ULEZ and packaging removal already inside the price

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: concierge sign-in, a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot, 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, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud, and the flat is left cleaner than the delivery left it.

The stock here is post-2010 apartments lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, so the anti-tip strap goes into dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block, with metal stud partitions between rooms using a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud.
Median age in the Greenwich neighbourhood is 32.6, and the mix shows in the diary: a modular wardrobe run and a sofa on handover day, built the same week the keys land.
32% of Greenwich households are one-person, which is where single-visit builds — one wardrobe, one bed, one desk — outnumber whole-flat days.

- 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.
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
- Anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud
- Doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches
- A stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall
- Royal Borough of Greenwich permits or bay suspensions where SE10 needs one
- Flattened cardboard, polystyrene and strapping taken away in the van
Not included — and why
- New electrical circuits, consumer-unit work or anything notifiable under Part P — that belongs to a registered electrician
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately)
- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit
The complete item list, anchoring matrix and scope policy sit on one page: assembly reference.

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, with metal stud partitions between rooms, so we use a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud. Every wall is scanned for cable and pipe first, and each strap is load-tested before we leave.
Usually yes. Concierge sign-in, a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot. 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.
All of it. Flattened cardboard, polystyrene, plastic strapping and the offcuts leave with us at the end of the Greenwich 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 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.
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 landing.
Most SE10 bookings are fitted within two to four working days, and we hold same-day and evening slots for handover and tenancy-start dates. Send the item list and you have a fixed written price the same working day.
