IKEA and flat-pack furniture assembly in Marylebone, W1
We assemble in Marylebone the way the stock demands: georgian townhouses on the howard de walden estate, mansion flats and consulting-room conversions, a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot — and concierge sign-in — and estate-managed streets, single-yellow evening restrictions and mansion blocks with porters and small lifts. Everything is levelled to the floor in the room, not the floor the instruction sheet assumes.

How it works
How a Marylebone assembly visit works
- Send the list, get a fixed priceSend the item list or a photo of the boxes. We price each unit from the published W1 list and confirm one written figure, including the anchoring your walls need.
- Access sorted for W1We book the Westminster City Council permit or the bay suspension and, where it applies, a booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot — and concierge sign-in — and estate-managed streets, single-yellow evening restrictions and mansion blocks with porters and small lifts.
- Built, anchored, packaging goneEach unit is torqued, squared and load-tested, tall pieces are strapped using a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork in W1, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud — which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, and the flat is left cleaner than the delivery left it.

Scope
What is included in Marylebone
Included in every visit
- Every unit on your Marylebone 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 in W1, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud — which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded
- In Marylebone: doors, hinges, drawer runners and sliding tracks adjusted so nothing drifts or catches, sized for the estate-managed streets, single-yellow evening restrictions and mansion blocks with porters and small lifts
- On W1 jobs: a stud, pipe and cable scan before any fixing goes into a wall, solid brick included
- Westminster City Council permits or bay suspensions where W1 needs one
Not included — and why
- New electrical circuits, consumer-unit work or anything notifiable under Part P — that belongs to a registered electrician, handled by Westminster City Council or a specialist contractor instead
- Gas appliance connection, including hobs and cookers, which is Gas Safe work, which we refer on to the right trade in Marylebone
- Plumbing in a sink, tap or integrated appliance as part of a kitchen run (we can book that separately), outside the fixed price on Marylebone bookings
- Manufacturer spare parts — missing dowels, cam locks or damaged panels are ordered at cost with the receipt, and we will say so before the W1 visit rather than on the day
- Cutting into a structural wall or altering an opening to make a unit fit, and we will say so before the W1 visit rather than on the day
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-managed streets, single-yellow evening restrictions and mansion blocks with porters and small lifts. Westminster City Council visitor permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, so long boxes are carried once, not twice.
- Charging zones
- Part of Westminster 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 W1 invoice.
- Access and lifts
- 88% of homes around Marylebone 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 W1 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
Marylebone W1 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 W1 is £190 for a batched list.
Yes, and it is included. Around W1 we are fixing into dot-and-dab plasterboard over dense block in W1, with metal stud partitions between rooms — a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here, so we use a long through-fixing past the void into the blockwork in W1, or a spread-load anchor on a metal stud — which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. Every wall is scanned for cable and pipe first, and each strap is load-tested before we leave.
Usually yes. A booked goods lift and a loading-bay window, all arranged before the slot, over concierge sign-in, measured on the walk in from Marylebone (Bakerloo, Chiltern Railways) rather than assumed from a map. Estate-managed streets, single-yellow evening restrictions and mansion blocks with porters and small lifts. Westminster City Council 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 W1 flat is usable the same evening. We are a registered waste carrier and can provide a transfer note.
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 W1 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 W1 hallway or communal bin store.
