Overview
All hanging and mounting services in Oval SE11, explained
This page prices all hanging and mounting services for Oval SE11 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 34% privately rented and 3,633 households in total. Work starts at £55, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Lambeth permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How all hanging and mounting services works in Oval
Five steps, the same on every SE11 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In SE11, Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block — measured on the walk in from Oval (Northern) rather than assumed from a map 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 Oval customers book us
Four things decide whether a SE11 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Oval walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Oval, often with surface conduit, which is why London Borough of Lambeth kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in SE11, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Oval stock goes, where 28% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Insured and documented
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every heavy item is photographed on its fixing for the job record.
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. Match-day road closures around the ground, red routes on Kennington Park Road and permit-only side streets.
Fixed prices
All hanging and mounting services prices in Oval
Fixed prices for SE11 and the rest of Lambeth. 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 Oval
The same scope across SE11, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Oval: cable and pipe detector sweep once per room before any hole is drilled, sized for the match-day road closures around the ground, red routes on kennington park road and permit-only side streets
- On SE11 jobs: wall read for solid brick, dot-and-dab, lath-and-plaster or stud, with the fixing matched to it, all hanging and mounting services included
- Standard on Lambeth bookings: laser level check on every item before the final fixing goes in, with 3,633 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Old fixings removed and holes filled flush where an item is being replaced, checked on every SE11 visit
Not included
- Cutting or replacing glass, framing or mirror resilvering — that is a glazier's job, outside the fixed price on Oval bookings
- Drilling into lath-and-plaster ceilings for light fittings, which is an electrician's job, and we will say so before the SE11 visit rather than on the day
- Fixing into asbestos insulating board, which needs a licensed contractor, handled by London Borough of Lambeth or a specialist contractor instead

Oval SE11 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Oval — the numbers that actually change a all hanging and mounting services quote.
In Oval (SE11) the split is 77% flats to 23% houses over 3,633 households, and the stock is Georgian and early Victorian.
With 34% private renting against 28% owner-occupied, most SE11 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Oval substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Oval, often with surface conduit, which is why London Borough of Lambeth kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Oval stock goes, where 28% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the mistake that costs a SE11 customer twice.
Oval sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — the cricket ground, the gasholders and Georgian terraces running back towards Kennington Park — which is why a SE11 quote is not a Lambeth average.
Match-day road closures around the ground, red routes on Kennington Park Road and permit-only side streets. Nearest station is Oval (Northern), and one fitter for a typical multi-item visit; two where anything crosses 30kg or has to be carried up a shared stairwell.

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 The Kia Oval cricket ground — and Lambeth parking rules in play, with The Kia Oval cricket ground a few streets away.
Can you do a whole room of hanging and mounting in one visit in Oval SE11?
Yes — the first item is £55 and each further item on the same visit is £25 on Lambeth bookings, with 28% owner-occupation locally. In Oval we usually meet precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Oval, often with surface conduit — and 23% of Oval homes being houses, which is why London Borough of Lambeth kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded on the streets near The Kia Oval cricket ground, with this being a short walk from Oval (Northern), so a TV, a mirror and three shelves in one flat can each need a different fixing; the failure we undo most is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Oval stock goes, where 28% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Do you check for cables before drilling in SE11?
On every wall, every item. It is a full sweep per room rather than per hole across SE11, with 38% social-rented stock nearby, which is why bundling items into one visit is cheaper than booking them separately.

The Kia Oval cricket ground is the marker we route to across SE11 — and 34% of SE11 homes being privately rented, with 77% of homes here being flats, and match-day road closures around the ground, red routes on Kennington Park Road and permit-only side streets.

Is same-day or evening all hanging and mounting services available in Lambeth?

Match-day road closures around the ground, red routes on Kennington Park Road and permit-only side streets on this side of Lambeth, with 33% one-person households here. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Lambeth it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards in this 77% flats neighbourhood — and 34% of SE11 homes being privately rented, with Lambeth parking rules in play.
