London TV mounting · Central London
TV mounting across Kensington and Chelsea, from SW10, SW3 and SW5 outwards. The densest borough in the country — white stucco crescents, museum quarter and the Portobello and World's End ends, and that is what shapes every quote we write here.
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. |

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 Kensington and Chelsea
The stock in Kensington and Chelsea is stucco-fronted terraces, mansion flats, mews houses and the lancaster west and world's end estates, and the mix changes street by street — Bayswater (W2), Chelsea (SW3) and Earl's Court (SW5) each behave differently on the day.
Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea sets the constraint: some of the tightest cpzs in london, mews entrances under 2.1m and communal-stair-only access in many mansion blocks. Locally that means hotel servicing congestion, permit bays and five-storey walk-ups and cadogan estate parking rules, king's road red-route loading and mews arches with height limits. Part of Kensington and Chelsea sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, so the charge is quoted as its own line rather than hidden in the labour rate.
Most flats in Kensington and Chelsea 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.
Kensington and Chelsea took its present shape because market gardens turned into the great exhibition's albertopolis, then estate-built stucco terraces for the victorian wealthy.
Scope
Method
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.
Coverage
Also in this borough
Wardrobes, beds, desks and storage built, levelled and anchored to the wall.
Floating and bracketed shelving into plaster, brick, stud and dot-and-dab.
Blinds, poles and bay tracks measured, levelled and fixed to the reveal you have.
Anything that needs to go on a wall — fixed into the right substrate and levelled.
Up to 42" on a solid wall starts at £75 in Kensington and Chelsea, 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.
We cover the whole borough: SW10, SW3, SW5, SW7, W10, W11, W14, W2 and W8. On the ground that includes Bayswater, Chelsea, Earl's Court, Holland Park, Kensington and Ladbroke Grove.
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.
Some of the tightest CPZs in London, mews entrances under 2.1m and communal-stair-only access in many mansion blocks. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Stucco-fronted terraces, mansion flats, mews houses and the Lancaster West and World's End estates 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.
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 Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
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 Kensington and Chelsea postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
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 Kensington and Chelsea, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.
