Overview
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Archway, all hanging and mounting services here covers supply-free fitting from £55. With 80% of Archway's 8,171 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in N19 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
TVs, mirrors, shelves, poles — whatever needs hanging, in whichever rooms. One visit, one call-out.
Step 2
Cables and pipes traced before drilling; London flats hide shallow chases behind switches and skirting-level pipe runs.
Step 3
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
Cleats, toggles, resin anchors or straight screws into timber, whichever the item and the wall call for, checked with a laser.
Step 5
Redundant holes filled, dust vacuumed, packaging taken away.
Why choose us
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — the reality on the streets around The Whittington Hospital and Archway Bridge in N19, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in N19, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — measured on the walk in from Archway (Northern) rather than assumed from a map.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every heavy item is photographed on its fixing for the job record.
One fitter for a typical multi-item visit; two where anything crosses 30kg or has to be carried up a shared stairwell. Gyratory red routes, steep hill streets and estate blocks with booked lifts.
Most slots are within 48 hours, and move-in day bookings are held to arrive before the removal van if asked. Archway (Northern) is the nearest station, so a N19 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — the reality on the streets around The Whittington Hospital and Archway Bridge behind the plaster in N19. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why in N19, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — measured on the walk in from Archway (Northern) rather than assumed from a map is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Archway: junction town beneath Highgate Hill with the Whittington Hospital and new public square. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Archway sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
