Overview
TV mounting in Bank and Cornhill EC3 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in City of London, most of them period conversion. 4,914 households sit inside this EC3 patch, 98% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Royal Exchange 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
One fitter up to 43 inches, two for anything larger or where the screen has to go up a stairwell. Bank junction is closed to most traffic on weekdays — early-morning or weekend access only.
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. Bank (Central, Northern, Waterloo & City, DLR) is the nearest station, so a EC3 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — the reality on the streets around The Royal Exchange in EC3, 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 on these streets — with 15% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
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. |

Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
I booked online last minute, as I needed a handyman urgently for the next day. When I called Hello Services, I spoke to Michelle and she was extremely helpful and arranged everything within 15 mins. 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 Bank and Cornhill
Census 2021 puts Bank and Cornhill at 4,914 households with a median age of 36.9. The period conversion stock is renter-heavy, which is why 2% houses and 98% flats need different handling in EC3.
Owner-occupation runs at 37% in Bank and Cornhill, so alongside the 48% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — the reality on the streets around The Royal Exchange, so the fixing that matters in Bank and Cornhill is chosen on site — the usual failure here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — with 15% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
Anyone who knows Bank and Cornhill knows the pattern near The Royal Exchange: the historic financial heart — Royal Exchange, Mansion House and the alleyways behind Leadenhall. We plan the EC3 visit around it. Bank and Cornhill sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: bank junction is closed to most traffic on weekdays — early-morning or weekend access only. Bank (Central, Northern, Waterloo & City, DLR) is the nearest station, 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 Bank and Cornhill on City of London bookings — and this being City of London Corporation territory, with 48% of EC3 homes being privately rented, 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 EC3 jobs, with 37% owner-occupation locally.
Yes. In Bank and Cornhill the walls we usually meet are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — the reality on the streets around The Royal Exchange for Bank and Cornhill (EC3) addresses, with 4,914 households on this patch — and 51% one-person households here, 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 in this 98% flats neighbourhood.
A screen up to 42 inches on a solid wall in EC3 takes 45–60 minutes on the Bank and Cornhill rounds. A 43–65 inch screen takes an hour to 90 minutes across EC3 — and 51% one-person households here, with 4,914 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 on the Bank and Cornhill rounds, with 37% owner-occupation locally. In leasehold flats across Bank and Cornhill we check the lease first; many City of London Corporation blocks require consent before a wall is cut on EC3 jobs, with 15% social-rented stock nearby.
Work is covered by £5m public liability insurance and we photograph the fixing before the screen goes on on City of London bookings, with The Royal Exchange a few streets away — and a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, which is what most London leases and letting agents ask for. That paperwork is what most City of London letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with 2% of Bank and Cornhill homes being houses.
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 on the Bank and Cornhill rounds, with 37% owner-occupation locally — and this being City of London Corporation territory. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Bank and Cornhill EC3 price you agree is the price you pay on EC3 jobs, with 15% social-rented stock nearby.
All three. With 48% of Bank and Cornhill privately rented and 37% owner-occupied, roughly half the EC3 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door across EC3 — and this being a short walk from Bank (Central, Northern, Waterloo & City, DLR), with 2% of Bank and Cornhill homes being houses.
