Greenwich · SE10 · Wardrobe assembly
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Greenwich fitters · Fixed written pricesLooking for wardrobe assembly in Greenwich SE10? We work in Greenwich most weeks — world Heritage centre of the market, the Cutty Sark and the Observatory on the hill — and price wardrobe assembly against that reality rather than a London average. Fixed written quote from £70, insured fitters, tall units anchored to the wall and doors adjusted flush.
Overview
This page prices wardrobe assembly for Greenwich SE10 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 31% privately rented and 17,397 households in total. Work starts at £70, fixed in writing, with parking and Royal Borough of Greenwich permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
Wall checked for level and plumb — a Victorian bedroom wall is rarely square top to bottom, and that decides how much scribing the fit will need.
Step 2
Panels assembled and squared with a diagonal check before the back goes on, since a carcass built out of square is what makes doors bind later.
Step 3
The unit offered up to the wall, gaps marked and fillers cut so the front face sits flush rather than following the wall's own lean.
Step 4
Anti-tip fixings into a stud or masonry point on every tall unit, standard on every build regardless of whether the kit's instructions make it optional.
Step 5
Rails, drawers and shelving fitted, doors and runners adjusted to close flush and quiet, packaging taken away.
Why choose us
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, and every tall or multi-door wardrobe is anchored to the wall as standard — the fixing furniture safety guidance and most manufacturer manuals call for and that free-standing self-assembly often skips.
One fitter for a single wardrobe; two for fitted bay systems, sliding-door units and anything carried up a shared stairwell. Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access.
Most bookings are within 48 hours, and we hold slots to match delivery days so a kit doesn't sit boxed in the hallway. Cutty Sark (DLR) is the nearest station, so a SE10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, which is why Royal Borough of Greenwich kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in SE10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Greenwich gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single flat-pack wardrobe, up to 2 doors | £70 | 1–1.5 hrs | Carcass squared and anchored before the doors go on, so they don't drop out of alignment within weeks. |
| Double or triple flat-pack wardrobe | £110 | 1.5–2.5 hrs | More panels to square and a wider carcass that needs bracing across the back before it's rigid. |
| Fitted wardrobe system (PAX-style), per bay | £150 | 2–3 hrs | Each bay is scribed individually to the wall — almost no London bedroom wall is square top to bottom. |
| Sliding-door wardrobe, per door | £65 | 45–70 min | Tracks have to be dead level or the door binds or drifts open on its own, which takes more adjustment than a hinged door. |
| Interior fit-out (drawers, rails, shelving), per unit | £45 | 30–50 min | Internal dividers and soft-close runners are fitted after the carcass is anchored, not before. |
| Wall anchoring for an existing free-standing wardrobe | £35 | 20–30 min | A retrofit anti-tip strap into a stud or masonry fixing, which most self-assembled wardrobes are never fitted with. |

Prices are assembly labour for a kit you supply. Every tall or top-heavy unit is anchored to the wall as standard, which is the manufacturer's own instruction and not an upsell. Scribing fillers for out-of-square walls are cut on site and included. Permits, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge where they apply are itemised.
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 Greenwich
17,397 households sit inside the SE10 neighbourhood covering Greenwich. The build is Georgian and early Victorian, the tenure profile mixed-tenure, and 73% of those homes are flats.
Because 31% of Greenwich is privately rented and 29% socially rented, a lot of SE10 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, which is why Royal Borough of Greenwich kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded behind the plaster in SE10. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Greenwich gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the fault we are called back to undo.
World Heritage centre of the market, the Cutty Sark and the Observatory on the hill. That character decides the practical detail of wardrobe assembly here far more than the borough boundary does. Greenwich is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access. Cutty Sark (DLR) is the nearest station, and one fitter for a single wardrobe; two for fitted bay systems, sliding-door units and anything carried up a shared stairwell.

Single flat-pack wardrobe, up to 2 doors starts at £70 in Greenwich in this 73% flats neighbourhood — and Greenwich parking rules in play, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Bay count and door type set the price. A fitted system is priced per bay because each one is scribed to its own patch of wall; sliding doors need more track-levelling time than hinged ones in Greenwich — and 27% of Greenwich homes being houses, with 17,397 households on this patch.
Yes — it's the normal case rather than the exception on Greenwich bookings. Greenwich's older bedrooms are rarely plumb top to bottom in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory — and 27% of Greenwich homes being houses, so we scribe filler pieces to close the gap rather than leave the unit leaning off the wall. The fault we correct most on call-backs is Greenwich gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here on this side of Greenwich — and a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood, with 73% of homes here being flats.
On every tall or multi-door unit, as standard. With 73% of Greenwich homes being flats, a free-standing wardrobe that isn't anchored is one of the most preventable safety issues in a furnished let around Cutty Sark (DLR), with 73% of homes here being flats.
Yes, from £65 a door. The track has to be dead level along its full run or the door drifts open on its own — with 27% of Greenwich homes being houses, alcove and chimney-breast bedrooms are the layout we fit these into most on this side of Greenwich — and 27% of Greenwich homes being houses, with 29% social-rented stock nearby.
The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark is the marker we route to for Greenwich (SE10) addresses, with 29% social-rented stock nearby — and 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented, and cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access. A SE10 slot added to an existing Greenwich round usually lands the same week rather than the next in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with 27% of Greenwich homes being houses.
Most bookings are within 48 hours, with this being Royal Borough of Greenwich territory, and we hold slots to match delivery days so a kit doesn't sit boxed in the hallway on Greenwich bookings. Greenwich sits close to Cutty Sark (DLR), with 73% of homes here being flats, so we can usually add a SE10 job to an existing Greenwich round at short notice in this 73% flats neighbourhood.
Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access on SE10 jobs. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in Royal Borough of Greenwich it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards around Cutty Sark (DLR) — and 40% owner-occupation locally, with The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark a few streets away.
