IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Wallington, SM6
Flat-pack in Sutton is a fixings job as much as a building job. In SM6 the anchor goes into or a spread-load anchor where no stud lands where the bracket does, over a stud-located screw at 400mm centres, and with 22% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, and the fault we are called back to correct on other people's work is Wallington gives us a two-hole restraint with one screw in a stud and one in fresh air, and wide avenues with driveways; the high street has timed loading bays.

What is included in Wallington
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Wallington list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- Standard on Sutton bookings: anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: or a spread-load anchor where no stud lands where the bracket does, over a stud-located screw at 400mm centres, and with 22% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, with 7,054 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most

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 SM6
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, which we refer on to the right trade in Wallington
- 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 SM6 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 Wallington bookings

The most-booked London slot: a bedroom's worth of boxes in one visit, one price.
- Parking and permits
- Wide avenues with driveways; the high street has timed loading bays. London Borough of Sutton visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Sutton sits outside the Congestion Charge zone and inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and that cost is never added to a SM6 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 43% of homes around Wallington 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 SM6 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
Wallington SM6 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 SM6 is £190 for a batched list.
Anchoring is part of the price, never an add-on. In Wallington the wall behind a wardrobe is normally timber stud partitions inside in SM6, cavity brickwork on the external walls, and with 28% one-person households in Wallington, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site, so the fitter uses or a spread-load anchor where no stud lands where the bracket does, over a stud-located screw at 400mm centres, and with 22% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. We scan for cables and pipework first and pull-test the finished restraint.
Usually yes. So boxes come in flat and get built in the room they belong in — and driveway or kerbside unloading — and with 28% one-person households in Wallington, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. Wide avenues with driveways; the high street has timed loading bays. London Borough of Sutton 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 Wallington visit and go to a licensed transfer station — we are a registered waste carrier.
Most missing-part problems are solved from our own fixings stock while the fitter is still in the room. A damaged panel is different — we log it with photographs and the article number so your SM6 replacement is straightforward, then return to complete the build free of 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 SM6 hallway or communal bin store.
