IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Nunhead, SE15
Flat-pack in Southwark is a fixings job as much as a building job. In SE15 the anchor goes into an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt in Nunhead, set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable, where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, and the fault we are called back to correct on other people's work is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a cable behind it, as the Nunhead stock goes, the pattern behind 7,127 households inside the SE15 neighbourhood.

How it works
How a Nunhead 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 Nunhead, confirm the access route and put the whole figure in writing the same working day.
- Access sorted for SE15We book the London Borough of Southwark permit or the bay suspension and, where it applies, deck access or a single lift shared with every other flat in SE15, so we book a delivery window, with 39% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
- Built, anchored, packaging goneWe build in the room, level to the floor you actually have, adjust every hinge and runner, anchor with an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt in Nunhead, set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable, where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, and leave with all the packaging.

Scope
What is included in Nunhead
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Nunhead 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 Nunhead, set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable, where 41% 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 — including solid brick
- Standard on Southwark bookings: a stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall, arranged with London Borough of Southwark where the kerb needs it
- London Borough of Southwark permits or bay suspensions where SE15 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 SE15
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, which we refer on to the right trade in Nunhead
- 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 SE15 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 Nunhead bookings
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE15
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 hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station. London Borough of Southwark visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Part of Southwark sits inside the Congestion Charge zone and all of it is inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and that cost is never added to a SE15 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 58% of homes around Nunhead 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 SE15 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
Nunhead SE15 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 SE15 is £190 for a batched list.
Anchoring is part of the price, never an add-on. In Nunhead the wall behind a wardrobe is normally precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Nunhead, often with surface-run conduit, the reality on the streets around Nunhead Cemetery, so the fitter uses an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt in Nunhead, set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable, where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year. We scan for cables and pipework first and pull-test the finished restraint.
Usually yes. So we book a delivery window — and deck access or a single lift shared with every other flat — and with 30% one-person households in Nunhead, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. Steep hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station. London Borough of Southwark 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 SE15 flat is usable the same evening. We are a registered waste carrier and can provide a transfer note.
We carry dowels, cam locks, screws and common fittings, so most short-shipped packs are finished the same Nunhead 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 SE15 hallway or communal bin store.
