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. Coach-station traffic, red routes on Vauxhall Bridge Road and dock booking in the newer blocks.
Most garden bookings are within 48 hours in season, with weekend slots from March to September. Victoria (Victoria, Circle, District, National Rail) is the nearest station, so a SW1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SW1, often with surface conduit — a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here in SW1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in SW1, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — which is why Westminster City Council 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 →

Working in Victoria
Walk Victoria from Westminster Cathedral outwards and the inter-war pattern is obvious: 92% of the 3,844 households in SW1 live in flats, 8% in houses.
30% of households rent privately and 22% own, which is why outdoor furniture assembly demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Victoria substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SW1, often with surface conduit — a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in SW1, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a SW1 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Victoria knows the pattern near Westminster Cathedral: station district of offices, theatres and new mixed-use blocks around Nova. We plan the SW1 visit around it. Victoria sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Coach-station traffic, red routes on Vauxhall Bridge Road and dock booking in the newer blocks. Nearest station is Victoria (Victoria, Circle, District, National Rail), and one fitter for bistro sets, parasols and BBQs; two for corner sofa sets, large dining sets and shed bases.

Bistro set or two chairs and a table starts at £55 in Victoria on Westminster bookings, with 8% of Victoria homes being houses, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Item count and access set the price: carrying through a flat or up to a terrace takes longer than a side return in this 92% flats neighbourhood, with 48% social-rented stock nearby.
Yes, and it is common in Victoria where 92% of homes are flats on the streets near Westminster Cathedral. We build on the terrace, carry cardboard straight back out and ballast bases — wind loading in SW1 is a real hazard across SW1, with 92% of homes here being flats.
Yes — from £120. Burners aligned, regulator fitted and every connection leak-tested before hand-over on SW1 jobs. We also check siting against the boundary, which matters in narrow Westminster gardens on this side of Westminster.
We level and pack an existing base from £160 in this 92% flats neighbourhood. With 8% of Victoria homes being houses, the surface is usually old paving with a drainage fall on Westminster bookings, with Westminster Cathedral a few streets away. A new concrete pad is landscaping and we refer it in Victoria.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every gas BBQ is leak-tested with the regulator fitted before hand-over on Westminster bookings, with 49% one-person households here. That paperwork is what most Westminster letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat in this 92% flats neighbourhood, with 3,844 households on this patch. Near Westminster Cathedral that usually means an earlier start so the van can be unloaded once.
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; Hard-wiring outdoor power, lighting or heaters on this side of Westminster — and a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood, with 8% of Victoria homes being houses, which needs a registered electrician. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Victoria SW1 price you agree is the price you pay on SW1 jobs, with Westminster parking rules in play.
All three. With 30% of Victoria privately rented and 22% owner-occupied, roughly half the SW1 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door for Victoria (SW1) addresses — and 3,844 households on this patch, with 30% of SW1 homes being privately rented.
