Overview
Mirror and artwork hanging in Hackney Wick E9, explained
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Hackney Wick, mirror and artwork hanging here covers supply-free fitting from £45. With 69% of Hackney Wick's 2,805 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in E9 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How mirror and artwork hanging works in Hackney Wick
Five steps, the same on every E9 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — and with 31% one-person households in Hackney Wick, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Weigh and read the wall
The piece is weighed and the wall sounded — solid, stud, dot-and-dab or lath — because that decides the fixing.
Step 2
Detector sweep
Cables and pipes traced before drilling; shallow chases behind switches are the usual London hazard.
Step 3
Set the height
Centre set at eye line, lower over a mantel or headboard, marked with a laser rather than a guess.
Step 4
Fix and hang
Cleat, D-rings or a track fitted, the piece lifted on and checked level end to end.
Step 5
Make good and clear up
Old holes filled, dust vacuumed, packaging taken away.
Why choose us
Why Hackney Wick customers book us
What follows is specific to Hackney Wick: its walls, its access and the paperwork Hackney agents ask for.
Crew sized to the job
One fitter for pictures and mirrors up to about 25kg; two for overmantels, full-length glass and anything carried up a communal stairwell. Narrow canal bridges, studio blocks with freight lifts and event-day park closures.
Booked around your day
Most slots are within 48 hours, with evenings and Saturdays for restricted buildings. Hackney Wick (Overground) is the nearest station, so a E9 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Hackney Wick walls, not generic walls
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, which is why London Borough of Hackney kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in E9, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Hackney Wick gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 28% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Fixed prices
Mirror and artwork hanging prices in Hackney Wick
Fixed prices for E9 and the rest of Hackney. Weight and wall type set the price: dot-and-dab, lath and steel lintels each need a different anchor.
| 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. |

Scope
What's included in Hackney Wick
The same scope across E9, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Hackney bookings: detector sweep for cables and pipes before any hole is drilled, with 2,805 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Fixings rated for the actual weight — cleats, toggles, resin or masonry anchors, checked on every E9 visit

- On E9 jobs: old fixings removed and holes filled flush, mirror and artwork hanging prices included
Not included
- Replacing broken glass or reframing — that is a framer's job, handled by London Borough of Hackney or a specialist contractor instead
- Structural work, new lintels or plastering beyond making good the holes, which we refer on to the right trade in Hackney Wick
- Hanging into asbestos insulating board, which needs a licensed contractor, outside the fixed price on Hackney Wick bookings

Hackney Wick E9 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Hackney Wick — the numbers that actually change a mirror and artwork hanging quote.
In Hackney Wick (E9) the split is 69% flats to 31% houses over 2,805 households, and the stock is post-war.
The social-housing-led mix here (28% owned, 28% privately rented) means a E9 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Hackney Wick substrates run to often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, which is why London Borough of Hackney kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Hackney Wick gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, and with 28% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the mistake that costs a E9 customer twice.
Canal-side studios and warehouse blocks facing the Olympic Park. That character decides the practical detail of mirror and artwork hanging here far more than the borough boundary does. Hackney Wick is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, narrow canal bridges, studio blocks with freight lifts and event-day park closures — one reason one fitter for pictures and mirrors up to about 25kg; two for overmantels, full-length glass and anything carried up a communal stairwell. Fitters travelling in use Hackney Wick (Overground).

Can you hang a heavy mirror on a plasterboard wall in Hackney Wick E9?
Yes. In Hackney Wick we meet often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 28% owner-occupation locally — and Hackney parking rules in play, which is why London Borough of Hackney kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, so the mirror goes onto a French cleat spanning two studs on the streets near The Lee Navigation and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, or through-fixes to the masonry behind. The board never carries the weight. The failure we undo most here is Hackney Wick gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on the Hackney Wick rounds, with 28% of E9 homes being privately rented — and The Lee Navigation and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park a few streets away, and with 28% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
