Barnet · NW4 · Mirror and artwork hanging
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Hendon fitters · Fixed written pricesHendon NW4 is a regular stop on our Barnet round. University campus, Brent Street's shops and the RAF Museum on the old aerodrome, so mirror and artwork hanging here is quoted on the street the job is on — from £45, in writing, with insured fitters, fixings rated above the weight and old holes made good.


Overview
Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around Hendon Central, mirror and artwork hanging here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 58% of Hendon's 14,613 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in NW4 shape the slot length we hold.
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
One fitter for pictures and mirrors up to about 25kg; two for overmantels, full-length glass and anything carried up a communal stairwell. A41 and M1 approaches are fast and hard to load from; side streets have driveways.
Most slots are within 48 hours, with evenings and Saturdays for restricted buildings. Hendon Central (Northern) is the nearest station, so a NW4 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in NW4, with metal stud partitions between rooms — measured on the walk in from Hendon Central (Northern) rather than assumed from a map in NW4, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — the reality on the streets around The RAF Museum London.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every heavy mirror is photographed on its fixing for the job record.
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. |

The board never carries the weight.
