IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Brockley, SE4
Around Hilly Fields Park the stock gives us precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Brockley, often with surface-run conduit, and with 30% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, which is why an identical wardrobe takes ninety minutes in one SE4 flat and half a day in the next. Most Brockley lists start with children's beds; locally that also means storage units and safety anchoring for a whole flat, where 39% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.

How it works
How a Brockley 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 Brockley quote is itemised per unit, so you can see what each build costs before you accept it.
- Access sorted for SE4Access is arranged before the day: deck access or a single lift shared with every other flat in SE4, so we book a delivery window, measured on the walk in from Brockley (Overground) rather than assumed from a map, 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 set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable — and an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt, which is what a 70% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Brockley actually produces, and the flat is left cleaner than the delivery left it.

Scope
What is included in Brockley
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Brockley list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- Anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable — and an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt, which is what a 70% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Brockley actually produces
- On SE4 jobs: doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, with 70% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
- In Brockley: a stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall, the way it is done on Brockley jobs
- London Borough of Lewisham permits or bay suspensions where SE4 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 SE4
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, which we refer on to the right trade in Brockley
- 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 SE4 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 Brockley bookings
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, which we refer on to the right trade in Brockley
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
- Steep hills, long front paths and conversion flats up two or three flights. 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 SE4 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 70% of homes around Brockley 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 SE4 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.

Questions
Brockley SE4 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 SE4 is £190 for a batched list.
Anchoring is part of the price, never an add-on. In Brockley the wall behind a wardrobe is normally precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Brockley, often with surface-run conduit, and with 30% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, so the fitter uses set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable — and an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt, which is what a 70% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Brockley actually produces. We scan for cables and pipework first and pull-test the finished restraint.
Usually yes. Deck access or a single lift shared with every other flat in Brockley, so we book a delivery window — which is what a 70% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Brockley actually produces. Steep hills, long front paths and conversion flats up two or three flights. 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 Brockley visit and go to a licensed transfer station — we are a registered waste carrier.
Short-shipped fixings rarely stop a build: the van carries dowels, cam locks, shelf pins and screws. If a panel itself is cracked we photograph it on the spot, record the article number for your replacement, and come back to Brockley to finish the unit with no second labour charge.
We can strip out and remove what is already there before the new units go in. It is quoted as a line of its own, and disposal runs under our registered waste carrier licence with a transfer note on request.
