Median age in the Earlsfield neighbourhood is 33.2, and the mix shows in the diary: a modular wardrobe run and a sofa on handover day, built the same week the keys land.
26% of Earlsfield households are one-person, which is where single-visit builds — one wardrobe, one bed, one desk — outnumber whole-flat days.
Earlsfield (South Western) is the nearest station, and London Borough of Wandsworth controls the kerb outside, so the permit is bought before the van leaves rather than argued about on arrival.

- Parking and permits
- Narrow terraced streets, permit bays and railway-bridge height limits. 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 SW18 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 61% of homes around Earlsfield 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 SW18 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.
Scope
What is included in Earlsfield
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Earlsfield list built, squared and levelled to the floor in the room it belongs in
- Anti-tip anchoring where the item needs it: a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud
- Doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches
- A stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall
- London Borough of Wandsworth permits or bay suspensions where SW18 needs one
- Flattened cardboard, polystyrene and strapping taken away in the van
Not included — and why
- New electrical circuits, consumer-unit work or anything notifiable under Part P — that belongs to a registered electrician
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately)
- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit
The complete item list, anchoring matrix and scope policy sit on one page: assembly reference.

Questions
Earlsfield SW18 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 SW18 is £190 for a batched list.
Yes, and it is included. Around SW18 we are fixing into dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block, with metal stud partitions between rooms, so we use a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud. Every wall is scanned for cable and pipe first, and each strap is load-tested before we leave.
Usually yes. Concierge sign-in, a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot. Narrow terraced streets, permit bays and railway-bridge height limits. London Borough of Wandsworth 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 Earlsfield visit and go to a licensed transfer station — we are a registered waste carrier.
We carry dowels, cam locks, screws and common fittings, so most short-shipped packs are finished the same 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. Take-down of existing furniture is quoted alongside the build, and where the old unit is being disposed of we can take it away under our waste carrier licence rather than leaving it on the landing.
Most SW18 bookings are fitted within two to four working days, and we hold same-day and evening slots for handover and tenancy-start dates. Send the item list and you have a fixed written price the same working day.
