IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Battersea, SW11
Around Battersea Power Station the stock gives us with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block, the pattern behind 6,832 households inside the SW11 neighbourhood, which is why an identical wardrobe takes ninety minutes in one SW11 flat and half a day in the next. Most Battersea lists start with a modular wardrobe run and a sofa on handover day in Battersea, built the same week the keys land, which is what a 87% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Battersea actually produces.

How it works
How a Battersea 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 Battersea quote is itemised per unit, so you can see what each build costs before you accept it.
- Access sorted for SW11Estate loading docks booked in advance, Nine Elms construction diversions and tight terraced streets. 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, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud — and a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here, then the cardboard flattened and taken away.

Scope
What is included in Battersea
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Battersea list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- In Battersea: anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud — and a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here, the way it is done on Battersea jobs
- Doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches — including IKEA assembly
- Standard on Wandsworth bookings: a stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall, arranged with London Borough of Wandsworth where the kerb needs it
- London Borough of Wandsworth permits or bay suspensions where SW11 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 SW11
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, which we refer on to the right trade in Battersea
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately), handled by London Borough of Wandsworth or a specialist contractor instead
- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt, and we will say so before the SW11 visit rather than on the day
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, outside the fixed price on Battersea bookings
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
- Estate loading docks booked in advance, Nine Elms construction diversions and tight terraced streets. London Borough of Wandsworth visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Wandsworth sits outside the Congestion Charge zone and inside ULEZ. Our vans are ULEZ compliant and that cost is never added to a SW11 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 87% of homes around Battersea 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 SW11 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.

Yes, and it is included. Around SW11 we are fixing into with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block, the pattern behind 6,832 households inside the SW11 neighbourhood, so we use or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud — and a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here. Every wall is scanned for cable and pipe first, and each strap is load-tested before we leave.
In Battersea, usually yes. A booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot — and concierge sign-in — and with 33% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. Estate loading docks booked in advance, Nine Elms construction diversions and tight terraced streets. London Borough of Wandsworth permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us before the visit. That covers assembly team on Battersea jobs too.
The packaging goes in the van at the end of the visit — cardboard, polystyrene, plastic wrap and offcuts — so your SW11 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 Battersea 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 SW11 hallway or communal bin store.
