Overview
This page prices mirror and artwork hanging for Cranham RM14 specifically: mixed-era stock, 10% privately rented and 5,823 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Havering permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
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
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. The easiest access in London — wide roads, drives and level thresholds.
Most slots are within 48 hours, with evenings and Saturdays for restricted buildings. Upminster (District, c2c) is the nearest station, so a RM14 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside, and the easiest access in london — wide roads, drives and level thresholds in RM14, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Cranham gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, a median age of 45 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
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. |

Working in Cranham
Cranham RM14 is mixed-era and owner-occupier-led: 12% of homes here are flats and 88% are houses, across 5,823 households (ONS Census 2021).
With 10% private renting against 86% owner-occupied, most RM14 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Cranham substrates run to cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside, and the easiest access in london — wide roads, drives and level thresholds. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Cranham gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, a median age of 45 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the mistake that costs a RM14 customer twice.
Quiet green-belt-edge suburb of bungalows and detached homes. That character decides the practical detail of mirror and artwork hanging here far more than the borough boundary does. Cranham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
The easiest access in London — wide roads, drives and level thresholds. Nearest station is Upminster (District, c2c), and one fitter for pictures and mirrors up to about 25kg; two for overmantels, full-length glass and anything carried up a communal stairwell.

Framed picture up to 10kg starts at £45 in Cranham for Cranham (RM14) addresses, with 5,823 households on this patch, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked.

Yes. In Cranham we meet cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside, and the easiest access in london — wide roads, drives and level thresholds — and 25% one-person households here, with 5% social-rented stock nearby, so the mirror goes onto a French cleat spanning two studs on the Cranham rounds, or through-fixes to the masonry behind. The board never carries the weight. The failure we undo most here is Cranham gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, a median age of 45 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here in this 12% flats neighbourhood — and 88% of Cranham homes being houses, with this being a short walk from Upminster (District, c2c).

All three. With 10% of Cranham privately rented and 86% owner-occupied, roughly half the RM14 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on the Cranham rounds — and this being London Borough of Havering territory, with Havering parking rules in play.
