Overview
All hanging and mounting services in St Mary Cray and Cray Valley BR5, explained
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around St Mary Cray, all hanging and mounting services here covers supply-free fitting from £55. With 23% of St Mary Cray and Cray Valley's 10,135 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in BR5 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How all hanging and mounting services works in St Mary Cray and Cray Valley
Five steps, the same on every BR5 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — which is why London Borough of Bromley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is what we plan for here.
Step 1
List the items
TVs, mirrors, shelves, poles — whatever needs hanging, in whichever rooms. One visit, one call-out.
Step 2
Detector sweep per room
Cables and pipes traced before drilling; London flats hide shallow chases behind switches and skirting-level pipe runs.
Step 3
Read each wall
Solid brick, dot-and-dab, lath-and-plaster and stud walls all sit in the same Victorian conversion — each item gets the fixing its own wall needs.
Step 4
Fix and level
Cleats, toggles, resin anchors or straight screws into timber, whichever the item and the wall call for, checked with a laser.
Step 5
Make good and clear up
Redundant holes filled, dust vacuumed, packaging taken away.
Why choose us
Why St Mary Cray and Cray Valley customers book us
Four things decide whether a BR5 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Crew sized to the job
One fitter for a typical multi-item visit; two where anything crosses 30kg or has to be carried up a shared stairwell. Wide estate roads with kerbside parking and industrial-estate access nearby.
Booked around your day
Most slots are within 48 hours, and move-in day bookings are held to arrive before the removal van if asked. St Mary Cray (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a BR5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
St Mary Cray and Cray Valley walls, not generic walls
We expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, and with 29% one-person households in St Mary Cray and Cray Valley, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in BR5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is St Mary Cray and Cray Valley gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Fixed prices
All hanging and mounting services prices in St Mary Cray and Cray Valley
Fixed prices for BR5 and the rest of Bromley. Item count first, then wall type. Mixing wall types in one flat is normal in London and does not change the price — only the number of items and anything over 30kg does.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| First item, any type (TV, mirror, shelf or pole) | £55 | 30–45 min | The detector sweep and the wall read are done once and cover every item fixed on the same visit. |
| Each additional item, same visit and same wall type | £25 | 15–25 min | No repeat call-out or sweep — only the extra fixing and the item itself add time. |
| Mixed multi-room visit, up to 6 items | £220 | 2.5–3.5 hrs | Typical house move-in list: two TVs, a mirror, three shelves, spread across rooms with different wall types. |
| Curtain pole or track, per window | £45 | 30–45 min | Bay windows and bows need mitred brackets set to the actual angle, not a straight rule. |
| Heavy item over 30kg (large mirror, floating shelf run) | £85 | 45–75 min | Needs a rated cleat or resin anchor and two people to hold and level while it is fixed. |
| Snagging list for a new tenancy, per hour after the first | £40 | 60 min | Landlords booking five or six small fixes in one flat before a let starts pay the standard hourly rate after the first item. |

Scope
What's included in St Mary Cray and Cray Valley
The same scope across BR5, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Bromley bookings: cable and pipe detector sweep once per room before any hole is drilled, arranged with London Borough of Bromley where the kerb needs it
- Wall read for solid brick, dot-and-dab, lath-and-plaster or stud, with the fixing matched to it — including all hanging and mounting services prices
- In St Mary Cray and Cray Valley: laser level check on every item before the final fixing goes in, the way it is done on St Mary Cray and Cray Valley jobs
- On BR5 jobs: old fixings removed and holes filled flush where an item is being replaced, with 23% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
Not included
- Cutting or replacing glass, framing or mirror resilvering — that is a glazier's job, outside the fixed price on St Mary Cray and Cray Valley bookings
- Drilling into lath-and-plaster ceilings for light fittings, which is an electrician's job, and we will say so before the BR5 visit rather than on the day
- Fixing into asbestos insulating board, which needs a licensed contractor, which we refer on to the right trade in St Mary Cray and Cray Valley
