Overview
TV mounting in Sidcup DA15 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Bexley, most of them inter-war. 8,640 households sit inside this DA15 patch, 46% of them flats, so we quote on access near Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park rather than a London average.
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
We expect cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside — and driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays in DA15, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in DA15, a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air — which is why London Borough of Bexley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
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.
One fitter up to 43 inches, two for anything larger or where the screen has to go up a stairwell. Driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays.
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. Sidcup (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a DA15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
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. |

Scope
Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.

Adam the handy man then came to fix my wardrobe sliding door, which were jammed and came off the ledge… Read in full →

Working in Sidcup
The DA15 stock around Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park is inter-war. ONS records 46% flats, 54% houses and 8,640 households in Sidcup.
20% of households rent privately and 68% own, which is why TV mounting demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Sidcup substrates run to cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside — and driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in DA15, a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air — which is why London Borough of Bexley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a DA15 customer twice.
Two streets can behave very differently in Sidcup: a busy high street, Lamorbey Park and the Rose Bruford campus. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Sidcup is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays. Nearest station is Sidcup (Southeastern), and one fitter up to 43 inches, two for anything larger or where the screen has to go up a stairwell.

Up to 42" on a solid wall starts at £75 in Sidcup on this side of Bexley — and Bexley parking rules in play, with this being a short walk from Sidcup (Southeastern), and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Screen size and wall type set the price. Dot-and-dab, stud and thin modern partitions cost more than brick because the fixing has to reach something structural on the streets near Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park, with Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park a few streets away.
Yes. In Sidcup the walls we usually meet are cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside — and driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays on the Sidcup rounds — and Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park a few streets away, with a median age of 41 in this neighbourhood, so we locate the studs or use through-fixings into the masonry behind the board. The plasterboard itself never carries the screen, whatever the bracket packaging claims on DA15 jobs.
A screen up to 42 inches on a solid wall in DA15 takes 45–60 minutes across DA15. A 43–65 inch screen takes an hour to 90 minutes on the streets near Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park — and 68% owner-occupation locally, with 8,640 households on this patch, and a full-motion arm or a dot-and-dab wall pushes it to two hours because the fixing pattern has to reach something structural.
We do, quoted separately from £90 — chasing, back boxes and making good is a different task from hanging the screen across DA15, with 54% of Sidcup homes being houses. In leasehold flats across Sidcup we check the lease first; many London Borough of Bexley blocks require consent before a wall is cut on the Sidcup rounds, with Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park a few streets away.
All three. With 20% of Sidcup privately rented and 68% owner-occupied, roughly half the DA15 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door across DA15 — and 12% social-rented stock nearby, with 46% of homes here being flats.
Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park is the marker we route to around Sidcup (Southeastern), with 8,640 households on this patch, and driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays. A DA15 slot added to an existing Bexley round usually lands the same week rather than the next across DA15, with 35% one-person households here.
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours on Bexley bookings, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. Sidcup sits close to Sidcup (Southeastern), with 68% owner-occupation locally, so we can usually add a DA15 job to an existing Bexley round at short notice on the streets near Sidcup Place and Lamorbey Park.
