Flat-pack assembly in Norwood.

ALLEN KEYS RETIRED.

For flat-pack assembly around Norwood, frames are squared as they go together and tall units are anchored, so a wardrobe does not wobble a year later. The housing here is cottages, terraces and villas on compact blocks, alongside premium townhouse infill. The ground under all this is red-brown earth over clay, more forgiving than the eastern escarpment but still seasonally reactive, and the terrain is flat to gently falling toward Second Creek, whose old alignments still influence local drainage. The suburb sits 3 km east of the Adelaide CBD, postcode 5067. Access around Norwood is rear lanes in some streets, otherwise through-house or single-gate access — planning the dig matters. This page explains what a visit covers and how to book it.

Missing parts and pairing jobs

If a part is missing from a box, we build everything that can be built, photograph the part number so you can lodge a replacement claim, and return to finish for a small call-back rather than a full job. Mounting a TV or shelves is an odd-jobs booking, and pairing the two gets both done in one visit at Norwood.
