Overview
This page prices outdoor furniture assembly for Friern Barnet and New Southgate N11 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 30% privately rented and 4,005 households in total. Work starts at £55, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Barnet permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
The route in is checked before the crew is booked, and floors are protected on the way.
Step 2
Parts checked outside, so cardboard never comes through the house twice.
Step 3
Assembled where it will live, because a built dining set will not fit back through a doorway.
Step 4
Feet packed to the fall of the paving and parasol bases ballasted for wind.
Step 5
BBQ leak-tested, moving parts cycled, packaging flattened and taken away on request.
Why choose us
Most garden bookings are within 48 hours in season, with weekend slots from March to September. New Southgate (Great Northern) is the nearest station, so a N11 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect lath and plaster over timber studs; locally that also means with solid brick on the party and external walls, the pattern behind 4,005 households inside the N11 neighbourhood in N11, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in N11, which crumbles the key and drops the panel, where 60% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every gas BBQ is leak-tested with the regulator fitted before hand-over.
One fitter for bistro sets, parasols and BBQs; two for corner sofa sets, large dining sets and shed bases. Gated estate access codes at Princess Park Manor; driveways elsewhere.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bistro set or two chairs and a table | £55 | 30–60 min | Quick build, bolted with the set standing on the surface it will live on. |
| Six to eight seat dining set | £110 | 1.5–2.5 hrs | Every chair is a separate build and the table is levelled on paving that falls for drainage. |
| Rattan corner sofa set | £140 | 2–3 hrs | Modules clipped and bolted, then squared so the cushions sit flush. |
| Gas BBQ or outdoor kitchen unit | £120 | 1.5–3 hrs | Burners aligned, regulator fitted and leak-tested before it is ever lit. |
| Parasol, cantilever base or gazebo | £95 | 1–2 hrs | The base is the safety item — ballast is calculated, not guessed. |
| Shed base or storage box, levelling included | £160 | 2–4 hrs | A base 15mm out of level is why shed doors stop closing after one winter. |

Scope
Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
Really pleased with our house move. The guys came on time, loaded everything carefully like a huge jigsaw! Nothing got broken and even though they were working on an hourly rate they were really efficient, not to waste any time. Our only criticism is that we needed a few items disassembled to get on the… Read in full →

Working in Friern Barnet and New Southgate

The owner-occupier-led mix here (60% owned, 30% privately rented) means a N11 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Walls are lath and plaster over timber studs; locally that also means with solid brick on the party and external walls, the pattern behind 4,005 households inside the N11 neighbourhood, so the fixing that matters in Friern Barnet and New Southgate is chosen on site — the usual failure here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in N11, which crumbles the key and drops the panel, where 60% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Friern Barnet and New Southgate is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.

On access, gated estate access codes at Princess Park Manor; driveways elsewhere — one reason one fitter for bistro sets, parasols and BBQs; two for corner sofa sets, large dining sets and shed bases. Fitters travelling in use New Southgate (Great Northern).
