IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Shepherd's Bush, W12
Flat-pack in Hammersmith and Fulham is a fixings job as much as a building job. In W12 the anchor goes into an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt in Shepherd's Bush, set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable, which is what a 87% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Shepherd's Bush actually produces, and the fault we are called back to correct on other people's work is Shepherd's Bush gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a cable behind it, and with 41% one-person households in Shepherd's Bush, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.

How it works
How a Shepherd's Bush 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 Shepherd's Bush, confirm the access route and put the whole figure in writing the same working day.
- Access sorted for W12Mall service yards, Uxbridge Road bus lanes and permit-only side streets. We confirm the carry route for two-metre panels and reserve the kerb so the boxes move once.
- Built, anchored, packaging goneDust sheets down, every unit built and squared, doors and drawers adjusted, an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt in Shepherd's Bush, set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable, which is what a 87% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Shepherd's Bush actually produces, then the cardboard flattened and taken away.

Scope
What is included in Shepherd's Bush
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Shepherd's Bush list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- Anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt in Shepherd's Bush, set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable, which is what a 87% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Shepherd's Bush actually produces
- On W12 jobs: doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, solid brick included

- London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham permits or bay suspensions where W12 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 W12
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, which we refer on to the right trade in Shepherd's Bush
- 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 W12 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 Shepherd's Bush bookings
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, outside the fixed price on Shepherd's Bush bookings
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
- Mall service yards, Uxbridge Road bus lanes and permit-only side streets. 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 W12 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 87% of homes around Shepherd's Bush 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 W12 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.

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 W12 is £190 for a batched list.
Yes, and it is included. Around W12 we are fixing into precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface-run conduit, where 26% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so we use an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt in Shepherd's Bush, set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable, which is what a 87% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Shepherd's Bush actually produces. 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 Shepherd's Bush, so we book a delivery window — and with 40% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. Mall service yards, Uxbridge Road bus lanes and permit-only side streets. London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham 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 Shepherd's Bush 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 Shepherd's Bush 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 — 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 W12 hallway or communal bin store.
