IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Bellingham and Downham, SE6
Around Beckenham Place Park nearby the stock gives us precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Bellingham and Downham, often with surface-run conduit, with 33% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, which is why an identical wardrobe takes ninety minutes in one SE6 flat and half a day in the next. Most Bellingham and Downham lists start with storage units and safety anchoring for a whole flat, over children's beds, which is what a 32% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Bellingham and Downham actually produces.

How it works
How a Bellingham and Downham 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 SE6 list and confirm one written figure, including the anchoring your walls need.
- Access sorted for SE6Access is arranged before the day: deck access or a single lift shared with every other flat in SE6, so we book a delivery window, which is why London Borough of Lewisham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, with the London Borough of Lewisham permit paid for by us.
- Built, anchored, packaging goneEach unit is torqued, squared and load-tested, tall pieces are strapped using an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt; locally that also means set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable, the reality on the streets around Beckenham Place Park nearby, and the flat is left cleaner than the delivery left it.

Scope
What is included in Bellingham and Downham
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Bellingham and Downham list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- In Bellingham and Downham: 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, the reality on the streets around Beckenham Place Park nearby, timed against the walk in from Bellingham (Southeastern)
- Doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, noted on the Bellingham and Downham job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Lewisham bookings: a stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall, allowing for the 22% of SE6 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- London Borough of Lewisham permits or bay suspensions where SE6 needs one
Not included — and why
- New electrical circuits, consumer-unit work or anything notifiable under Part P — that belongs to a registered electrician, handled by London Borough of Lewisham or a specialist contractor instead
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, and we will say so before the SE6 visit rather than on the day
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately), outside the fixed price on Bellingham and Downham bookings
- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE6
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, which we refer on to the right trade in Bellingham and Downham
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
- Wide estate roads with kerbside parking and level access — easy for a Luton. London Borough of Lewisham visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Lewisham sits outside the Congestion Charge zone and inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and that cost is never added to a SE6 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 32% of homes around Bellingham and Downham 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 SE6 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.

Wide estate roads with kerbside parking and level access — easy for a Luton. London Borough of Lewisham 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 Bellingham and Downham visit and go to a licensed transfer station — we are a registered waste carrier.
