TV mounting in City of London

TV mounting across City of London, from E1, EC1 and EC2 outwards. The Square Mile — banking towers, medieval lanes and a resident population dwarfed by 500,000 weekday workers, and that is what shapes every quote we write here.

Fixed prices

TV mounting prices in City of London

These are the City of London floor prices for a TV mount. 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. In this borough the additional variables are the Congestion Charge, ULEZ and permit-only frontages, and each is quoted separately so you can see it.
TV mounting price guide for City of London
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Up to 42" on a solid wall£7545–60 minBrick or block takes a straightforward fixing; the time is levelling and cable dressing.
43"–65" on a solid wall£951–1.5 hrsTwo-person lift and a heavier bracket with resin or sleeve anchors rated for the screen.
66"+ or a full-motion arm£1401.5–2 hrsCantilever arms multiply the pull-out load, so the fixing pattern and substrate check take longer.
Dot-and-dab or stud wall£1201.5–2 hrsThe plasterboard carries nothing: we locate studs or fit through-fixings to the masonry behind the void.
Cables chased into the wall£90+1–2 hrsChasing, back boxes and making good is a separate trade task from hanging the screen.
Soundbar, shelf or console added£35+20–30 minA second fixing line that has to sit level with the screen and hide its own cabling.

Prices include the fixings and a straight cable tidy. Brackets can be supplied at cost or you can provide your own. Where a permit or a loading-bay suspension is needed for the van it is itemised in the quote, and Congestion Charge or ULEZ, where they apply, are shown as separate lines rather than folded into the labour rate.

Working in City of London

Why City of London is not a generic London job

St Paul's Cathedral is the landmark; the working detail below is what actually changes the price and the method in City of London.

The housing stock

What our crews walk into in City of London is barbican and golden lane flats, converted counting houses and a handful of new riverside blocks, and the mix changes street by street — Aldgate (EC3), Bank and Cornhill (EC3) and Barbican (EC2) each behave differently on the day.

Access, parking and permits

On the ground, congestion charge and ulez, ring-of-steel camera controls, almost no free kerb — loading bays must be booked around office hours. Locally that means aldgate gyratory red routes, tower-block concierge sign-in and lift booking and bank junction is closed to most traffic on weekdays — early-morning or weekend access only. Part of City of London sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, so the charge is quoted as its own line rather than hidden in the labour rate.

City of London Corporation rules

Most flats in City of London are leasehold, and managing agents here routinely ask for a public liability certificate and a method note before a contractor drills anything. We send both with the booking confirmation.

How the borough got this way

Roman Londinium's walled city, rebuilt after the 1666 fire and again after the Blitz, now layered with towers around Bishopsgate. That history is why City of London property behaves the way it does today.

Scope

What's included in City of London

The same scope everywhere in the borough, whether the job is in Aldgate or St Paul's.

Included in the price

  • Substrate check before anything is drilled — masonry, dot-and-dab, stud or concrete
  • Fixings rated for the screen weight and, on cantilever arms, the pull-out load
  • Screen levelled, tilt set and cables tidied into trunking or a sleeve
  • Cardboard and packaging taken away

Not included

  • Aerial and satellite work, which needs an aerial engineer
  • New power sockets behind the screen — that is notifiable electrical work
  • Drilling into a wall we assess as unsafe or a leaseholder's structural wall without written consent

Method

How a City of London booking runs

Five steps, the same on every City of London job, so you know what happens before you commit.
  1. Step 1

    Wall check

    Detector sweep for cables and pipes, then a substrate test so the fixing matches the wall rather than the other way round.

  2. Step 2

    Height and eye-line

    We set the centre of the screen to seated eye level and mark it before drilling anything.

  3. Step 3

    Bracket fixed

    Anchors chosen for the wall type and torqued, with a load check before the screen goes anywhere near it.

  4. Step 4

    Screen hung and levelled

    Two-person lift on anything over 43 inches, then levelled and the tilt set.

  5. Step 5

    Cables and clear-up

    Cables trunked, sleeved or chased if quoted, inputs tested and the packaging taken away.

Coverage

Every area we cover in City of London

10 named areas across E1, EC1, EC2, EC3 and EC4. Each has its own page with local access notes.
Local questions

TV mounting in City of London — your questions

  • How much does a TV mount cost in City of London?

    Up to 42" on a solid wall starts at £75 in City of London, and the ladder runs up to £35 for the largest job on the table above. 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. Part of the borough is inside the Congestion Charge zone, so a £15 daily charge is added as its own line when the job falls inside the charging hours.

  • Which City of London postcodes do you cover?

    We cover the whole borough: E1, EC1, EC2, EC3 and EC4. On the ground that includes Aldgate, Bank and Cornhill, Barbican, Blackfriars, Clerkenwell and Farringdon.

  • How quickly can you get to City of London?

    Most borough slots are available within 48 hours, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. Central London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.

  • What about parking and permits in City of London?

    Congestion Charge and ULEZ, ring-of-steel camera controls, almost no free kerb — loading bays must be booked around office hours. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with City of London Corporation and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.

  • Do you work in City of London flats and blocks with no lift?

    Yes. Barbican and Golden Lane flats, converted counting houses and a handful of new riverside blocks is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.

  • Are you insured and licensed for work in City of London?

    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. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what City of London Corporation tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.

  • Who turns up, and with what?

    One fitter up to 43 inches, two for anything larger or where the screen has to go up a stairwell. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every City of London postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.

  • What is not included?

    Aerial and satellite work, which needs an aerial engineer, New power sockets behind the screen — that is notifiable electrical work and Drilling into a wall we assess as unsafe or a leaseholder's structural wall without written consent. If something on that list turns up in City of London, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.
