Overview
TV mounting in Lee SE12, explained
This page prices TV mounting for Lee SE12 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 22% privately rented and 6,151 households in total. Work starts at £75, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Lewisham permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How TV mounting works in Lee
Five steps, the same on every SE12 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings, as the Lee stock goes, a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here 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 Lee customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Lee wall.
Booked around your day
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. Lee (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE12 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Lee walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in Lee, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — with 18% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in SE12, 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 Lewisham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
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.
Fixed prices
TV mounting prices in Lee
Fixed prices for SE12 and the rest of Lewisham. 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. |

Prices include the fixings and a straight cable tidy. Brackets can be supplied at cost or you can provide your own.

Scope
What's included in Lee
The same scope across SE12, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On SE12 jobs: substrate check before anything is drilled — masonry, dot-and-dab, stud or concrete, TV mounting included
- In Lee: fixings rated for the screen weight and, on cantilever arms, the pull-out load, sized for the driveways on many streets; lee high road is a red route with short bays
- Screen levelled, tilt set and cables tidied into trunking or a sleeve, checked on every SE12 visit
- Standard on Lewisham bookings: cardboard and packaging taken away, with 6,151 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
Not included
- Aerial and satellite work, which needs an aerial engineer, and we will say so before the SE12 visit rather than on the day
- New power sockets behind the screen — that is notifiable electrical work, outside the fixed price on Lee bookings
- Drilling into a wall we assess as unsafe or a leaseholder's structural wall without written consent, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE12

Lee SE12 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Lee — the numbers that actually change a TV mounting quote.
Walk Lee from The Manor House and its gardens outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 39% of the 6,151 households in SE12 live in flats, 60% in houses.
Private renting sits at 22% and owner-occupation at 60%; the first group books TV mounting at short notice, the second plans it.
Expect solid London stock brick in Lee, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — with 18% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first behind the plaster in SE12. 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 Lewisham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Lee knows the pattern near The Manor House and its gardens: manor House library, Lee Green's shops and streets of interwar houses. We plan the SE12 visit around it. Lee 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: driveways on many streets; Lee High Road is a red route with short bays. Lee (Southeastern) 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.

Common questions
TV mounting in Lee SE12 — your questions.
How much does TV mounting cost in Lee SE12?
Up to 42" on a solid wall starts at £75 in Lee — and Lewisham parking rules in play, with 18% social-rented stock nearby, 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 in this 39% flats neighbourhood, with The Manor House and its gardens a few streets away.
Can you mount a TV on plasterboard in Lee SE12?
Yes. In Lee the walls we usually meet are solid London stock brick in Lee, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — with 18% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first around Lee (Southeastern) — and 6,151 households on this patch, with 22% of SE12 homes being privately rented, 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 SE12.
How long does TV mounting take in Lee?
A screen up to 42 inches on a solid wall in SE12 takes 45–60 minutes in Lee. A 43–65 inch screen takes an hour to 90 minutes around Lee (Southeastern), with 6,151 households on this patch — and 22% of SE12 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 Lewisham?
We do, quoted separately from £90 — chasing, back boxes and making good is a different task from hanging the screen across SE12, with 22% of SE12 homes being privately rented. In leasehold flats across Lee we check the lease first; many London Borough of Lewisham blocks require consent before a wall is cut on this side of Lewisham, with this being London Borough of Lewisham territory.
Who books TV mounting in Lee SE12 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 22% of Lee privately rented and 60% owner-occupied, roughly half the SE12 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on the streets near The Manor House and its gardens — and a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood, with The Manor House and its gardens a few streets away.
How quickly can you reach Lee from your Lewisham round?
The Manor House and its gardens is the marker we route to across SE12, with 18% social-rented stock nearby, and driveways on many streets; Lee High Road is a red route with short bays. A SE12 slot added to an existing Lewisham round usually lands the same week rather than the next on this side of Lewisham, with 60% of Lee homes being houses.
Is same-day or evening TV mounting available in Lewisham?
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours in Lee, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. Lee sits close to Lee (Southeastern), with a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood, so we can usually add a SE12 job to an existing Lewisham round at short notice around Lee (Southeastern).
