| 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. |

Working in Kingston upon Thames
The stock in Kingston upon Thames is victorian and edwardian terraces, 1930s semis, riverside apartments and surbiton mansion flats, and the mix changes street by street — Chessington (KT9), Kingston town centre (KT1) and Kingston Vale and Coombe (KT2) each behave differently on the day.
On the ground, one-way system and pedestrianised centre in kingston, riverside loading limits, driveways in surbiton and chessington. Locally that means wide roads, driveways and easy turning throughout and pedestrianised centre with timed access, riverside loading limits and a one-way ring road. Kingston upon Thames sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
Most flats in Kingston upon Thames are leasehold, and managing agents here routinely ask for a public liability certificate and a method note before a contractor drills anything. We send both with the booking confirmation.
Saxon kings were crowned here; the market and the bridge kept it prosperous long before the railway made Surbiton a commuter town. That history is why Kingston upon Thames property behaves the way it does today.
Scope
Method
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.

Bistro set or two chairs and a table starts at £55 in Kingston upon Thames, and the ladder runs up to £160 for the largest job on the table above. Item count and access set the price: carrying through a flat or up to a terrace takes longer than a side return. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: KT1, KT2, KT3, KT4, KT5, KT6 and KT9. On the ground that includes Chessington, Kingston town centre, Kingston Vale and Coombe, New Malden, Norbiton and Kingston Hill and Surbiton.
Most garden bookings are within 48 hours in season, with weekend slots from March to September. South London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
One-way system and pedestrianised centre in Kingston, riverside loading limits, driveways in Surbiton and Chessington. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Victorian and Edwardian terraces, 1930s semis, riverside apartments and Surbiton mansion flats is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every gas BBQ is leak-tested with the regulator fitted before hand-over. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
One fitter for bistro sets, parasols and BBQs; two for corner sofa sets, large dining sets and shed bases. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Kingston upon Thames postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Laying paving, concrete pads or decking — that is landscaping, quoted separately, Fixing anything into a party wall or boundary structure without the neighbour's consent and Hard-wiring outdoor power, lighting or heaters, which needs a registered electrician. If something on that list turns up in Kingston upon Thames, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

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 →
