Overview
Mirror and artwork hanging in Hayes UB3, explained
This page prices mirror and artwork hanging for Hayes UB3 specifically: inter-war stock, 33% privately rented and 14,482 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Hillingdon permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How mirror and artwork hanging works in Hayes
Five steps, the same on every UB3 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In UB3, Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings — which is why London Borough of Hillingdon kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded 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 Hayes customers book us
Four things decide whether a UB3 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Hayes walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in Hayes, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, the pattern behind 14,482 households inside the UB3 neighbourhood in UB3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Hayes stock goes, and with 33% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Insured and documented
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover and every heavy mirror is photographed on its fixing for the job record.
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. New blocks need booked lifts and bays; older streets have driveways and canal bridges.
Fixed prices
Mirror and artwork hanging prices in Hayes
Fixed prices for UB3 and the rest of Hillingdon. 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 Hayes
The same scope across UB3, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Hayes: detector sweep for cables and pipes before any hole is drilled, the way it is done on Hayes jobs
- On UB3 jobs: fixings rated for the actual weight — cleats, toggles, resin or masonry anchors, with 34% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
- Standard on Hillingdon bookings: laser level check and height set against eye line, not the sofa, arranged with London Borough of Hillingdon where the kerb needs it
- Old fixings removed and holes filled flush — including mirror and artwork hanging
Not included
- Replacing broken glass or reframing — that is a framer's job, outside the fixed price on Hayes bookings
- Structural work, new lintels or plastering beyond making good the holes, and we will say so before the UB3 visit rather than on the day
- Hanging into asbestos insulating board, which needs a licensed contractor, handled by London Borough of Hillingdon or a specialist contractor instead

Working in Hayes
Hayes UB3 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Hayes — the numbers that actually change a mirror and artwork hanging quote.
Hayes UB3 is inter-war and mixed-tenure: 34% of homes here are flats and 66% are houses, across 14,482 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 33% of Hayes is privately rented and 22% socially rented, a lot of UB3 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect solid London stock brick in Hayes, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, the pattern behind 14,482 households inside the UB3 neighbourhood behind the plaster in UB3. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Hayes stock goes, and with 33% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the fault we are called back to undo.
Hayes 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 — the old EMI works, the canal and a town centre transformed by the Elizabeth line — which is why a UB3 quote is not a Hillingdon average.
On access, new blocks need booked lifts and bays; older streets have driveways and canal bridges — 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 Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line).

Common questions
Mirror and artwork hanging in Hayes UB3 — your questions.
How much does mirror and artwork hanging cost in Hayes UB3?
Framed picture up to 10kg starts at £45 in Hayes, with 45% owner-occupation locally, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Weight and wall type set the price: dot-and-dab, lath and steel lintels each need a different anchor for Hayes (UB3) addresses, with 22% social-rented stock nearby.
Can you hang a heavy mirror on a plasterboard wall in Hayes UB3?
Yes. In Hayes we meet solid London stock brick in Hayes, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, the pattern behind 14,482 households inside the UB3 neighbourhood — and Hillingdon parking rules in play, so the mirror goes onto a French cleat spanning two studs on UB3 jobs, with 66% of Hayes homes being houses, or through-fixes to the masonry behind. The board never carries the weight. The failure we undo most here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Hayes stock goes across UB3 — and 66% of Hayes homes being houses, with 33% of UB3 homes being privately rented, and with 33% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Do you hang gallery walls in Hayes?
Often — with 34% of Hayes homes being flats, smaller frames are the usual way to fill a wall across UB3, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood. 5 hours from £140, templated before drilling.
I rent in UB3 — can you hang things without damaging the wall?
33% of homes here are privately rented, so this comes up weekly in Hayes. We fit a picture rail or track — two fixings, not twenty — and can return at check-out to remove it and fill the holes around Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line), with 66% of Hayes homes being houses.
How quickly can you reach Hayes from your Hillingdon round?
The former EMI factory at Blyth Road is the marker we route to on this side of Hillingdon, with 34% of homes here being flats — and this being a short walk from Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line), and new blocks need booked lifts and bays; older streets have driveways and canal bridges. A UB3 slot added to an existing Hillingdon round usually lands the same week rather than the next in this 34% flats neighbourhood, with this being London Borough of Hillingdon territory.
Is same-day or evening mirror and artwork hanging available in Hillingdon?
Most slots are within 48 hours, with evenings and Saturdays for restricted buildings around Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line). Hayes sits close to Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line) on UB3 jobs, with The former EMI factory at Blyth Road a few streets away, so we can usually add a UB3 job to an existing Hillingdon round at short notice.
Do you handle difficult access in Hayes?
New blocks need booked lifts and bays; older streets have driveways and canal bridges in Hayes. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Hillingdon it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on this side of Hillingdon — and 66% of Hayes homes being houses, with 22% social-rented stock nearby.
