IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Peckham, SE15
Two Peckham flats on the same street can take a different amount of time for the same wardrobe, and the reason is the substrate: precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE15, often with surface-run conduit, with 46% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first. We bring the fixings for it rather than trusting the bag in the box.

Flat-pack and IKEA assembly in Peckham

How it works
How a Peckham 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 Peckham, confirm the access route and put the whole figure in writing the same working day.
- Access sorted for SE15Rye Lane bus gates, LTN filters and terraced streets with permit bays. 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, set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable — and an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt, which is what a 72% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Peckham actually produces, then the cardboard flattened and taken away.

Scope
What is included in Peckham
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Peckham 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 72% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Peckham actually produces
- On SE15 jobs: doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, anti-tip restraint included
- In Peckham: a stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall, sized for the rye lane bus gates, ltn filters and terraced streets with permit bays
- 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, which we refer on to the right trade in Peckham
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, handled by London Borough of Southwark or a specialist contractor instead
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately), outside the fixed price on Peckham 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 SE15
- 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
- Rye Lane bus gates, LTN filters and terraced streets with permit bays. 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
- 72% of homes around Peckham 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.

Sulltan and Adam were absolutely brilliant. They assembled some complicated IKEA items perfectly. They were really helpful and left assembly areas clean and tidy. I have no hesitation in recommending their services.

Questions
Peckham 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.
Every unit designed to be restrained gets restrained. Because SE15 walls are typically precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE15, often with surface-run conduit, with 46% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, the fixing we carry is set clear of scanned reinforcement and buried cable — and an SDS-drilled hole and a screwbolt, which is what a 72% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Peckham actually produces — chosen on site after a cable and pipe scan, then load-tested in front of you.
Usually yes. Deck access or a single lift shared with every other flat in SE15, so we book a delivery window — and with 23% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. Rye Lane bus gates, LTN filters and terraced streets with permit bays. 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.
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 Peckham to finish the unit with no second 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.
