Hillingdon · UB7 · TV mounting
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local West Drayton and Yiewsley fitters · Fixed written pricesWest Drayton and Yiewsley UB7 is a regular stop on our Hillingdon round. Canal-side town on the Colne, with the green, the station and new housing, so TV mounting here is quoted on the street the job is on — from £75, in writing, with insured fitters, brackets and fixings matched to the wall, and the packaging taken away.


Overview
Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around West Drayton, TV mounting here covers supply-free fitting from £75. With 36% of West Drayton and Yiewsley's 7,842 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in UB7 shape the slot length we hold.
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. Canal bridges limit access; new estates have wide roads and allocated parking.
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. West Drayton (Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a UB7 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — which is what a 36% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Drayton and Yiewsley actually produces in UB7, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — which is why London Borough of Hillingdon 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.
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 West Drayton and Yiewsley
Census 2021 puts West Drayton and Yiewsley at 7,842 households with a median age of 33.7. The mainly Victorian stock is mixed-tenure, which is why 64% houses and 36% flats need different handling in UB7.
Private renting sits at 27% and owner-occupation at 48%; the first group books TV mounting at short notice, the second plans it.
Expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — which is what a 36% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Drayton and Yiewsley actually produces behind the plaster in UB7. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — which is why London Borough of Hillingdon kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows West Drayton and Yiewsley knows the pattern near West Drayton Green and the Grand Union Canal: canal-side town on the Colne, with the green, the station and new housing. We plan the UB7 visit around it. West Drayton and Yiewsley is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: canal bridges limit access; new estates have wide roads and allocated parking. West Drayton (Elizabeth line) 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 West Drayton and Yiewsley on the West Drayton and Yiewsley rounds, with Hillingdon parking rules in play — and 64% of West Drayton and Yiewsley homes being houses, 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 around West Drayton (Elizabeth line), with this being London Borough of Hillingdon territory.
Yes. In West Drayton and Yiewsley the walls we usually meet are some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — which is what a 36% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Drayton and Yiewsley actually produces around West Drayton (Elizabeth line) — and a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood, with 36% of homes here being flats, 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 across UB7.
A screen up to 42 inches on a solid wall in UB7 takes 45–60 minutes on Hillingdon bookings. A 43–65 inch screen takes an hour to 90 minutes in this 36% flats neighbourhood — and 48% owner-occupation locally, with 36% of homes here being flats, 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 UB7 jobs, with this being London Borough of Hillingdon territory. In leasehold flats across West Drayton and Yiewsley we check the lease first; many London Borough of Hillingdon blocks require consent before a wall is cut around West Drayton (Elizabeth line) — and 48% owner-occupation locally, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood.
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours on this side of Hillingdon, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. West Drayton and Yiewsley sits close to West Drayton (Elizabeth line) across UB7 — and 27% of UB7 homes being privately rented, with 64% of West Drayton and Yiewsley homes being houses, so we can usually add a UB7 job to an existing Hillingdon round at short notice.
Canal bridges limit access; new estates have wide roads and allocated parking around West Drayton (Elizabeth line). Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Hillingdon it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards in West Drayton and Yiewsley — and 22% one-person households here, with West Drayton Green and the Grand Union Canal a few streets away.
Work is covered by £5m public liability insurance and we photograph the fixing before the screen goes on on this side of Hillingdon, with this being a short walk from West Drayton (Elizabeth line) — and 64% of West Drayton and Yiewsley homes being houses, which is what most London leases and letting agents ask for. That paperwork is what most Hillingdon letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat across UB7, with 27% of UB7 homes being privately rented.
