Scope
What is included in Whitton
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Whitton list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- Anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: or a resin anchor where the brick is soft — and a 7mm hole into the brick body with a nylon plug — which is why London Borough of Richmond upon Thames kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded
- Standard on Richmond upon Thames bookings: doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, with 3,134 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most

- London Borough of Richmond upon Thames permits or bay suspensions where TW2 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 Richmond upon Thames or a specialist contractor instead
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, which we refer on to the right trade in Whitton
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately), quoted separately if you need it arranged in TW2
- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt, outside the fixed price on Whitton bookings
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, which we refer on to the right trade in Whitton

Packaging leaves with us
Flattened cardboard, polystyrene and strapping go in the van at the end of the Whitton visit in Whitton, with Richmond upon Thames parking rules in play.
Permits and access handled
London Borough of Richmond upon Thames permits, bay suspensions, concierge sign-in and goods-lift booking are arranged by us around Whitton (South Western), with 3,134 households on this patch.

The most-booked London slot: a bedroom's worth of boxes in one visit, one price.
- Parking and permits
- Driveways on nearly every street; only the high street needs timed loading. London Borough of Richmond upon Thames visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Richmond upon Thames sits outside the Congestion Charge zone and inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and that cost is never added to a TW2 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 25% of homes around Whitton 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 TW2 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.
