Overview
Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around Bayswater, all hanging and mounting services here covers supply-free fitting from £55. With 93% of Bayswater's 8,016 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in W2 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
One fitter for a typical multi-item visit; two where anything crosses 30kg or has to be carried up a shared stairwell. Hotel servicing congestion, permit bays and five-storey walk-ups.
Most slots are within 48 hours, and move-in day bookings are held to arrive before the removal van if asked. Bayswater (Circle, District) is the nearest station, so a W2 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — where 29% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in W2, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — and with 46% one-person households in Bayswater, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every heavy item is photographed on its fixing for the job record.
Fixed prices
| 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. |

Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.

Working in Bayswater
The W2 stock around Whiteleys and Hyde Park's north edge is period conversion. ONS records 93% flats, 7% houses and 8,016 households in Bayswater.
Owner-occupation runs at 29% in Bayswater, so alongside the 60% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Bayswater substrates run to with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — where 29% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — and with 46% one-person households in Bayswater, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is the mistake that costs a W2 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Bayswater knows the pattern near Whiteleys and Hyde Park's north edge: hotel-lined stucco terraces on the park's north side with a strong international community. We plan the W2 visit around it. Bayswater sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Hotel servicing congestion, permit bays and five-storey walk-ups. Nearest station is Bayswater (Circle, District), and one fitter for a typical multi-item visit; two where anything crosses 30kg or has to be carried up a shared stairwell.

First item, any type (TV, mirror, shelf or pole) starts at £55 in Bayswater, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood — and 11% social-rented stock nearby, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. 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 on the streets near Whiteleys and Hyde Park's north edge — and 29% owner-occupation locally, with 46% one-person households here.
Yes — the first item is £55 and each further item on the same visit is £25 around Bayswater (Circle, District), with 11% social-rented stock nearby. In Bayswater we usually meet with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — where 29% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year across W2, with 7% of Bayswater homes being houses — and 29% owner-occupation locally, so a TV, a mirror and three shelves in one flat can each need a different fixing; the failure we undo most is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — and with 46% one-person households in Bayswater, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
On every wall, every item. It is a full sweep per room rather than per hole on the Bayswater rounds, with 60% of W2 homes being privately rented, which is why bundling items into one visit is cheaper than booking them separately.
With 60% of Bayswater homes privately rented, we get asked this weekly for Bayswater (W2) addresses. Minimal fixings, filled and sanded on request, with Kensington and Chelsea parking rules in play, and we can return at check-out to remove anything and make the wall good on the streets near Whiteleys and Hyde Park's north edge.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every heavy item is photographed on its fixing for the job record in Bayswater, with this being a short walk from Bayswater (Circle, District).

Cutting or replacing glass, framing or mirror resilvering — that is a glazier's job; Drilling into lath-and-plaster ceilings for light fittings, which is an electrician's job; Fixing into asbestos insulating board on W2 jobs — and Whiteleys and Hyde Park's north edge a few streets away, with 93% of homes here being flats, which needs a licensed contractor. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Bayswater W2 price you agree is the price you pay around Bayswater (Circle, District), with this being Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea territory.
All three. With 60% of Bayswater privately rented and 29% owner-occupied, roughly half the W2 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on this side of Kensington and Chelsea — and Whiteleys and Hyde Park's north edge a few streets away, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood.
