Overview

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
One fitter for bistro sets, parasols and BBQs; two for corner sofa sets, large dining sets and shed bases. Tram-line crossings, wide suburban roads and driveways on most streets.
Most garden bookings are within 48 hours in season, with weekend slots from March to September. Mitcham (Tramlink) is the nearest station, so a CR4 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls, over lath and plaster over timber studs — which is what a 46% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Mitcham actually produces in CR4, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — which is why London Borough of Merton kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every gas BBQ is leak-tested with the regulator fitted before hand-over.
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 →

Mitcham substrates run to with solid brick on the party and external walls, over lath and plaster over timber studs — which is what a 46% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Mitcham actually produces. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — which is why London Borough of Merton kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a CR4 customer twice.
