Insured and documented
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.

Overview
TV mounting in Clapham SW4, explained
Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around Clapham Common, TV mounting here covers supply-free fitting from £75. With 76% of Clapham's 21,167 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SW4 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How TV mounting works in Clapham
Five steps, the same on every SW4 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In SW4, Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions — measured on the walk in from Clapham Common (Northern) rather than assumed from a map is what we plan for here.
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.
Step 2
Height and eye-line
We set the centre of the screen to seated eye level and mark it before drilling anything.
Step 3
Bracket fixed
Anchors chosen for the wall type and torqued, with a load check before the screen goes anywhere near it.
Step 4
Screen hung and levelled
Two-person lift on anything over 43 inches, then levelled and the tilt set.
Step 5
Cables and clear-up
Cables trunked, sleeved or chased if quoted, inputs tested and the packaging taken away.
Why choose us
Why Clapham customers book us
Four things decide whether a SW4 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Crew sized to the job
One fitter up to 43 inches, two for anything larger or where the screen has to go up a stairwell. Very tight CPZ hours, narrow terraces and share-house turnover every summer.
Booked around your day
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. Clapham Common (Northern) is the nearest station, so a SW4 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Clapham walls, not generic walls
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, the reality on the streets around Clapham Common in SW4, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, and with 34% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Fixed prices
TV mounting prices in Clapham
Fixed prices for SW4 and the rest of Lambeth. 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.
| 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
What's included in Clapham
The same scope across SW4, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Clapham: substrate check before anything is drilled — masonry, dot-and-dab, stud or concrete, timed against the walk in from Clapham Common (Northern)
- On SW4 jobs: fixings rated for the screen weight and, on cantilever arms, the pull-out load, agreed on the doorstep in Clapham before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Lambeth bookings: screen levelled, tilt set and cables tidied into trunking or a sleeve, allowing for the 34% of SW4 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Cardboard and packaging taken away, noted on the Clapham job sheet so the next visit starts from it
Not included
- Aerial and satellite work, which needs an aerial engineer, outside the fixed price on Clapham bookings
- New power sockets behind the screen — that is notifiable electrical work, and we will say so before the SW4 visit rather than on the day
- Drilling into a wall we assess as unsafe or a leaseholder's structural wall without written consent, handled by London Borough of Lambeth or a specialist contractor instead

Clapham SW4 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Clapham — the numbers that actually change a TV mounting quote.
In Clapham (SW4) the split is 76% flats to 24% houses over 21,167 households, and the stock is Georgian and early Victorian.
The mixed-tenure mix here (37% owned, 34% privately rented) means a SW4 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Clapham substrates run to with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, the reality on the streets around Clapham Common. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, and with 34% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the mistake that costs a SW4 customer twice.
The Common, Abbeville Village and the Old Town's Georgian houses. That character decides the practical detail of TV mounting here far more than the borough boundary does. Clapham sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Very tight CPZ hours, narrow terraces and share-house turnover every summer. Nearest station is Clapham Common (Northern), and one fitter up to 43 inches, two for anything larger or where the screen has to go up a stairwell.

Common questions
TV mounting in Clapham SW4 — your questions.
How much does TV mounting cost in Clapham SW4?
Up to 42" on a solid wall starts at £75 in Clapham on SW4 jobs — and Lambeth parking rules in play, with 21,167 households on this patch, 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 Lambeth bookings, with this being London Borough of Lambeth territory.
Can you mount a TV on plasterboard in Clapham SW4?
Yes. In Clapham the walls we usually meet are with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs, the reality on the streets around Clapham Common in this 76% flats neighbourhood, with 34% of SW4 homes being privately rented — and 76% 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 for Clapham (SW4) addresses.
How long does TV mounting take in Clapham?
A screen up to 42 inches on a solid wall in SW4 takes 45–60 minutes in Clapham. A 43–65 inch screen takes an hour to 90 minutes for Clapham (SW4) addresses, with Lambeth parking rules in play — and 34% of SW4 homes being privately rented, 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.
Do you chase cables into the wall in Lambeth?
We do, quoted separately from £90 — chasing, back boxes and making good is a different task from hanging the screen on the Clapham rounds, with this being London Borough of Lambeth territory. In leasehold flats across Clapham we check the lease first; many London Borough of Lambeth blocks require consent before a wall is cut across SW4, with 76% of homes here being flats.
Do you handle difficult access in Clapham?
Very tight CPZ hours, narrow terraces and share-house turnover every summer on the Clapham rounds. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Lambeth it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on SW4 jobs — and this being London Borough of Lambeth territory, with 34% of SW4 homes being privately rented.
Are your fitters insured for work in SW4?
Work is covered by £5m public liability insurance and we photograph the fixing before the screen goes on around Clapham Common (Northern), with this being London Borough of Lambeth territory — and 31% one-person households here, which is what most London leases and letting agents ask for. That paperwork is what most Lambeth letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on SW4 jobs, with 76% of homes here being flats.
What is not included in TV mounting in Clapham?
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 in Clapham — and Lambeth parking rules in play, with 21,167 households on this patch. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Clapham SW4 price you agree is the price you pay for Clapham (SW4) addresses, with 31% one-person households here.
