Overview
Mirror and artwork hanging in Golders Green NW11 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in Barnet, most of them inter-war. 7,269 households sit inside this NW11 patch, 55% of them flats, so we quote on access near Hampstead Garden Suburb rather than a London average.
How it works
Step 1
The piece is weighed and the wall sounded — solid, stud, dot-and-dab or lath — because that decides the fixing.
Step 2
Cables and pipes traced before drilling; shallow chases behind switches are the usual London hazard.
Step 3
Centre set at eye line, lower over a mantel or headboard, marked with a laser rather than a guess.
Step 4
Cleat, D-rings or a track fitted, the piece lifted on and checked level end to end.
Step 5
Old holes filled, dust vacuumed, packaging taken away.
Why choose us
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — the reality on the streets around Hampstead Garden Suburb in NW11, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in NW11, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — which is why London Borough of Barnet kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every heavy mirror is photographed on its fixing for the job record.
One fitter for pictures and mirrors up to about 25kg; two for overmantels, full-length glass and anything carried up a communal stairwell. Garden Suburb Trust rules on frontages, narrow service lanes and a busy bus station gyratory.
Most slots are within 48 hours, with evenings and Saturdays for restricted buildings. Golders Green (Northern) is the nearest station, so a NW11 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Framed picture up to 10kg | £45 | 15–30 min | One fixing, but the wall is scanned first — London plaster hides shallow pipes and cables. |
| Additional piece, same visit | £20 | 10–20 min | Call-out, sweep and dust sheets are already paid for on the first item. |
| Mirror 10–30kg | £65 | 30–50 min | Two-point fixing into something structural, then a laser check across the width. |
| Overmantel or full-length mirror above 30kg | £95 | 45–90 min | Plate glass needs a cleat rated well above the weight and two people to lift it. |
| Gallery wall, 5–9 pieces | £140 | 1.5–2.5 hrs | Set out on the floor and templated on the wall before a hole goes in. |
| Rail or track hanging system, per 2m | £110 | 1–1.5 hrs | A track spreads the load and lets tenants rehang without new holes. |
