Overview
This page prices TV mounting for Friern Barnet and New Southgate N11 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 30% privately rented and 4,005 households in total. Work starts at £75, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Barnet permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
Detector sweep for cables and pipes, then a substrate test so the fixing matches the wall rather than the other way round.
Step 2
We set the centre of the screen to seated eye level and mark it before drilling anything.
Step 3
Anchors chosen for the wall type and torqued, with a load check before the screen goes anywhere near it.
Step 4
Two-person lift on anything over 43 inches, then levelled and the tilt set.
Step 5
Cables trunked, sleeved or chased if quoted, inputs tested and the packaging taken away.
Why choose us
One fitter up to 43 inches, two for anything larger or where the screen has to go up a stairwell. Gated estate access codes at Princess Park Manor; driveways elsewhere.
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. New Southgate (Great Northern) is the nearest station, so a N11 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect lath and plaster over timber studs in N11, with solid brick on the party and external walls — which is what a 47% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Friern Barnet and New Southgate actually produces in N11, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in Friern Barnet and New Southgate, which crumbles the key and drops the panel — the pattern behind 4,005 households inside the N11 neighbourhood.
Work is covered by £5m public liability insurance and we photograph the fixing before the screen goes on, which is what most London leases and letting agents ask for.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 42" on a solid wall | £75 | 45–60 min | Brick or block takes a straightforward fixing; the time is levelling and cable dressing. |
| 43"–65" on a solid wall | £95 | 1–1.5 hrs | Two-person lift and a heavier bracket with resin or sleeve anchors rated for the screen. |
| 66"+ or a full-motion arm | £140 | 1.5–2 hrs | Cantilever arms multiply the pull-out load, so the fixing pattern and substrate check take longer. |
| Dot-and-dab or stud wall | £120 | 1.5–2 hrs | The plasterboard carries nothing: we locate studs or fit through-fixings to the masonry behind the void. |
| Cables chased into the wall | £90 | +1–2 hrs | Chasing, back boxes and making good is a separate trade task from hanging the screen. |
| Soundbar, shelf or console added | £35 | +20–30 min | A second fixing line that has to sit level with the screen and hide its own cabling. |
