Hammersmith and Fulham · SW6 · Flat-pack assembly
IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Sands End, SW6
Two Sands End 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 Sands End, with metal stud partitions between rooms, which is why London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. We bring the fixings for it rather than trusting the bag in the box.

How it works
How a Sands End 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 SW6 list and confirm one written figure, including the anchoring your walls need.
- Access sorted for SW6Access is arranged before the day: a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot, over concierge sign-in, a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here, with the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham 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 in SW6, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud, where 37% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, and the flat is left cleaner than the delivery left it.

Scope
What is included in Sands End
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Sands End 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 in SW6, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud, where 37% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year
- Doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, noted on the Sands End job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Hammersmith and Fulham bookings: a stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall, allowing for the 36% of SW6 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham permits or bay suspensions where SW6 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 Sands End
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, handled by London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham or a specialist contractor instead
- 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 SW6 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 Sands End bookings
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SW6
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
- Concierge sign-in, booked goods lifts and estate loading bays on the riverside blocks. London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Hammersmith and Fulham sits outside the Congestion Charge zone and inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and that cost is never added to a SW6 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 89% of homes around Sands End 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 SW6 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.

Really pleased with our house move. The guys came on time, loaded everything carefully like a huge jigsaw!

Questions
Sands End SW6 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 SW6 is £190 for a batched list.
Every unit designed to be restrained gets restrained. Because SW6 walls are typically dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block in Sands End, with metal stud partitions between rooms, which is why London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, the fixing we carry is a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork in SW6, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud, where 37% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year — 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 — and concierge sign-in — which is what a 89% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Sands End actually produces. Concierge sign-in, booked goods lifts and estate loading bays on the riverside blocks. London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham 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 SW6 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 SW6 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 SW6 hallway or communal bin store.
