Overview
All hanging and mounting services in Custom House E16, explained
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Custom House, all hanging and mounting services here covers supply-free fitting from £55. With 50% of Custom House's 3,330 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in E16 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How all hanging and mounting services works in Custom House
Five steps, the same on every E16 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In E16, Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block — the pattern behind 3,330 households inside the E16 neighbourhood 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 Custom House customers book us
Four things decide whether a E16 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Custom House walls, not generic walls
We expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 49% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in E16, 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 Custom House stock goes, the reality on the streets around Custom House station and Victoria Dock.
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. Construction diversions, estate service roads and new blocks with booked lifts.
Fixed prices
All hanging and mounting services prices in Custom House
Fixed prices for E16 and the rest of Newham. 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 Custom House
The same scope across E16, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Custom House: cable and pipe detector sweep once per room before any hole is drilled, timed against the walk in from Custom House (Elizabeth line, DLR)
- On E16 jobs: wall read for solid brick, dot-and-dab, lath-and-plaster or stud, with the fixing matched to it, agreed on the doorstep in Custom House before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Newham bookings: laser level check on every item before the final fixing goes in, allowing for the 24% of E16 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Old fixings removed and holes filled flush where an item is being replaced, noted on the Custom House job sheet so the next visit starts from it
Not included
- Cutting or replacing glass, framing or mirror resilvering — that is a glazier's job, handled by London Borough of Newham or a specialist contractor instead
- Drilling into lath-and-plaster ceilings for light fittings, which is an electrician's job, which we refer on to the right trade in Custom House
- Fixing into asbestos insulating board, which needs a licensed contractor, quoted separately if you need it arranged in E16

Custom House E16 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Custom House — the numbers that actually change a all hanging and mounting services quote.
Custom House E16 is post-war and social-housing-led: 50% of homes here are flats and 50% are houses, across 3,330 households (ONS Census 2021).
With 24% private renting against 26% owner-occupied, most E16 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Custom House substrates run to often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 49% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first. 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 Custom House stock goes, the reality on the streets around Custom House station and Victoria Dock is the mistake that costs a E16 customer twice.
Custom House is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — regeneration streets between the docks and Canning Town, transformed by the Elizabeth line — which is why a E16 quote is not a Newham average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: construction diversions, estate service roads and new blocks with booked lifts. Custom House (Elizabeth line, DLR) is the nearest station, and one fitter for a typical multi-item visit; two where anything crosses 30kg or has to be carried up a shared stairwell.
