We come with our top of the range tools, as well as protective equipment where needed. We will assemble any furniture, mount any TV or hang any Curtain Pole; we carry fixings for all wall types. We also have indoor shoes and spare parts!

We specialise in all flatpack types, but we're experts at ranges by Ikea, Tesco, Next, NCF and Laura Ashley. Our true calling are Ikea Pax and Malm ranges... you wont see anyone work like us! We even take on moving or take downs and rebuilds of any luxury ranges like Hulsta, Nolte and Weimann.

Our rates are very competitive, and all new furniture jobs come with a minimum 5 year warranty. We are also fully insured to the value of £2'000'000 so you are in good hands. We can accommodate commercial and landlord clients also, you'll never see us struggle for capacity.

Our other specialism is TV wall mounting. We stock and install a number of bracket options, not to mention shelving, speaker, cabling and wire hiding. All our TV mountings come with a market leading 5 year warranty as standard! To date we've done in excess of 1000 TV's, you could say we are good at what we do!

Our sister coompany Wickworth Blinds, are a leading supplier of quality window coverings ranging from basic roller and vertical blinds to more specialised pleated, roman and visage/allusion blinds. We are all about quality, only stocking ranges from leading manufacturers, thats why all our blinds come with a 5 year warranty. We often cater packages to our clients that include a whole host of services for a great price. Why pay multiple companies when you can deal with one profit margin, one point of contact, one reliable service standard.

Moving Home? Take advantage of our move out service. We'll disassemble your furniture, transport it using protective blankets and finally reassembly in the new property. If the job is to take full days we also offer day rates which can work out cheaper in many cases.

Be careful of a number of individuals advertising on Gumtree and Facebook claiming to be professional. If they aren't insured you can be sure they aren't confident in their building capabilities! That's the first step to breaking and damaging your new furniture! But foremost make sure you read the reviews on any tradesmen you hire. Experience nowadays should be proven online, and if it isn't, whats being hidden?! Check for profiles on all major sites, their own branded website and general handymen claiming to be furniture experts.

Get in contact soon for a professional, polite and honest flat pack building service, fitted blinds or Television Wall Mounting!

Reviews:

Amar - 'Fifth time using Dr Flatpack, we've had a number of their staff at our house and each and every time they do the best job we could expect!'

Katie - 'Having looked for a company like this who was insured and gave a warranty we have filled a large hole that was plaguing our property company.'

Holly - 'We needed a whole house of furniture assembled for new tenants who wanted to move in quick. Mike came in a did it all in 2 days, we were very impressed. He charged us a day rate which saved me and my husband a bit of money!'

Mohammed - 'We have a normal fitter but needed to use these guys as it was late. We called him around 7pm, by 8pm he was at our house and all done for midnight.... excellent'

Amarit - 'Dont hesitate to call him! Aside from making a bedroom for my daughter, Mike is now our preferred choice for general building and decorating work as hes very knowledgeable and professional.'

Mr & Mrs Halligan - 'We both wanted new furniture for our dated living room but we had no vehicle. We chose all our stuff from Ikea and Mike organised pickup, payment and assembly really quick. Despite being the Christmas holidays he made time for us and took no break until it was done... A****

Tina - 'Came round and made a bed in 1 hour. While he was here he diagnosed a damp problem and referred us to a contractor who gave us a great rate as it was through him. We had other quotes also but not one was within his pricing.... work done and guess what, no more damp!'

Ravi C - 'Great service, never knew this existed. We have been stumped with our flatpack assembly but rang these fitters and they sent two great guys to build our new bedroom up. Will use again for sure!'

Loressa - 'Television hung on wall just as I picture, very happy with the cable tidying'

⭐ **1 STAR – WARNING: Avoid this company at all costs** I am leaving this review as a **serious warning to anyone considering Dr Flatpack**. My experience with this company was extremely unprofessional, misleading, and stressful, and I would strongly advise others to **look elsewhere**. Last month, an assembler (Kyle) attended and said the wardrobe was too large for the space. I accepted this explanation and reordered a smaller wardrobe. **No assembly work was carried out**, yet I was still **pressured to pay £50**. I only paid to avoid escalation and treated it as a misunderstanding, even though it felt unfair. Despite this, I **was still willing to give them another chance**. I rebooked for **6th January 2026**, which **Mike, the owner**, initially agreed to. I explained the wardrobe would be delivered **in the afternoon**, but as soon as this was mentioned, his attitude changed. He became rude, defensive, and suddenly claimed they "do not do same-day assembly when wardrobes are delivered". What makes this even more concerning is that **the previous month they had no issue with a same-day afternoon timeslot**. Their rules appear to change at will, making it impossible for any customer to know what to expect. From there, the communication was contradictory and inconsistent. I was told they don’t do afternoon slots, then told the booking would have been fine if I “called on the day,” despite earlier being told categorically that they would not attend. Taken together, this is **misleading, hypocritical, and completely unprofessional**. When I raised concerns, Mike attempted to guilt-trip and intimidate me via WhatsApp, making personal attacks, claiming I was letting my ego control me, and warning of “legal consequences” if I left a review. Shortly after, he blocked me entirely, preventing any communication instead of addressing legitimate concerns. Anyone considering this company should be aware that they **pressure customers for money even when no work is done, refuse to provide written policies, constantly change rules and attempt to intimidate customers, this company is completely unreliable and untrustworthy.**. This experience was stressful, frustrating, and disappointing. I will **never use this company again** and would **strongly advise anyone reading this review to avoid them entirely**.

Kyle did a good job of building the cupboards. However, there was also some carpentry involved. When booking the job, I was told there would be a 'small wait' for the carpenter. I chased Mike several times to arrange this, but he didn't get back to me and I gave up. It was disappointing to have the job half done (although I hadn't yet paid for the carpentry). It was also difficult for someone else to pick up the job with no handover/communication. I'd recommend Kyle but not a job where separate carpentry is required.

I contacted Mike for some outdoor furniture that I required to be built. Communication was seamless and somebody was sent out to me within a couple of days to complete the job. Kyle was fantastic. He was so quick and efficient. Was so pleased. Will definitely be using again!!

Kyle came yesterday to help with installing a study table, books rack , a wardrobe, and mounting a TV on the wall. He was extremely polite, professional, and clearly very skilled at what he does. Everything was done perfectly and with great attention to detail. I really appreciated his positive attitude and respectfulness — highly recommend him and the company!

Thank you Mike & Kyle! :) Poonam
