Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking mirror and artwork hanging near Chelsea Harbour and Brompton Cemetery?

Prices start at £45 and are fixed before we travel. Walls are scanned for cables and pipes before anything is drilled.


Overview
This page prices mirror and artwork hanging for West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour SW10 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 46% privately rented and 6,731 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea 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
Most slots are within 48 hours, with evenings and Saturdays for restricted buildings. West Brompton (District, Overground) is the nearest station, so a SW10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, and with 49% one-person households in West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SW10, 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, as the West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour stock goes, which is what a 90% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour actually produces.
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. Harbour estate access control, tower blocks with booked lifts and permit-only side streets.
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 renter-heavy mix here (30% owned, 46% privately rented) means a SW10 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Walls are with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, and with 49% one-person households in West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site, so the fixing that matters in West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour is chosen on site — the usual failure here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour stock goes, which is what a 90% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour actually produces.
West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
