Overview
TV mounting in Kew TW9, explained
This page prices TV mounting for Kew TW9 specifically: mainly Edwardian stock, 30% privately rented and 4,163 households in total. Work starts at £75, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Richmond upon Thames permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How TV mounting works in Kew
Five steps, the same on every TW9 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings, as the Kew stock goes, where 64% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year 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 Kew customers book us
What follows is specific to Kew: its walls, its access and the paperwork Richmond upon Thames agents ask for.
Booked around your day
Most borough slots are available within 48 hours, with evening appointments after 6pm on weekdays. Kew Gardens (District, Overground) is the nearest station, so a TW9 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Kew walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in TW9, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here in TW9, 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 — measured on the walk in from Kew Gardens (District, Overground) rather than assumed from a map.
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 Kew
Fixed prices for TW9 and the rest of Richmond upon Thames. 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 Kew
The same scope across TW9, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On TW9 jobs: substrate check before anything is drilled — masonry, dot-and-dab, stud or concrete, tv mounting included
- In Kew: fixings rated for the screen weight and, on cantilever arms, the pull-out load, sized for the narrow streets with permit bays, level crossings and conservation-area frontages
- Screen levelled, tilt set and cables tidied into trunking or a sleeve, checked on every TW9 visit
- Standard on Richmond upon Thames bookings: cardboard and packaging taken away, with 4,163 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
Not included
- Aerial and satellite work, which needs an aerial engineer, handled by London Borough of Richmond upon Thames or a specialist contractor instead
- New power sockets behind the screen — that is notifiable electrical work, and we will say so before the TW9 visit rather than on the day
- Drilling into a wall we assess as unsafe or a leaseholder's structural wall without written consent, outside the fixed price on Kew bookings

Kew TW9 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Kew — the numbers that actually change a TV mounting quote.
Walk Kew from Kew Gardens outwards and the mainly Edwardian pattern is obvious: 41% of the 4,163 households in TW9 live in flats, 59% in houses.
Private renting sits at 30% and owner-occupation at 64%; the first group books TV mounting at short notice, the second plans it.
Expect solid London stock brick in TW9, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here behind the plaster in TW9. 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 — measured on the walk in from Kew Gardens (District, Overground) rather than assumed from a map is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Kew knows the pattern near Kew Gardens: the botanic gardens, the green and Edwardian family streets around them. We plan the TW9 visit around it. Kew is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Narrow streets with permit bays, level crossings and conservation-area frontages. Nearest station is Kew Gardens (District, Overground), 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 Kew TW9 — your questions.
How much does TV mounting cost in Kew TW9?
Up to 42" on a solid wall starts at £75 in Kew on Richmond upon Thames bookings — and 6% social-rented stock nearby, with 64% owner-occupation locally, 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 for Kew (TW9) addresses, with 30% one-person households here.
Can you mount a TV on plasterboard in Kew TW9?
Yes. In Kew the walls we usually meet are solid London stock brick in TW9, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here on TW9 jobs — and 41% of homes here being flats, with 59% of Kew homes being houses, 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 on the streets near Kew Gardens.
How long does TV mounting take in Kew?
A screen up to 42 inches on a solid wall in TW9 takes 45–60 minutes in this 41% flats neighbourhood. A 43–65 inch screen takes an hour to 90 minutes on this side of Richmond upon Thames — and 30% of TW9 homes being privately rented, with 59% of Kew homes being houses, 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 Richmond upon Thames?
We do, quoted separately from £90 — chasing, back boxes and making good is a different task from hanging the screen for Kew (TW9) addresses, with Kew Gardens a few streets away. In leasehold flats across Kew we check the lease first; many London Borough of Richmond upon Thames blocks require consent before a wall is cut on the streets near Kew Gardens, with 30% of TW9 homes being privately rented.
Are your fitters insured for work in TW9?
For TW9 bookings, work is covered by £5m public liability insurance and we photograph the fixing before the screen goes on on Richmond upon Thames bookings, with 4,163 households on this patch — and 64% owner-occupation locally, which is what most London leases and letting agents ask for. That paperwork is what most Richmond upon Thames letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat in this 41% flats neighbourhood, with a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood. Around Kew Gardens (District, Overground) we allow for the parking and the walk-in before the slot is confirmed.
What is not included in TV mounting in Kew?
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 TW9 jobs — and 30% of TW9 homes being privately rented, with a median age of 43 in this neighbourhood. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Kew TW9 price you agree is the price you pay on the streets near Kew Gardens, with 4,163 households on this patch.
Who books TV mounting in Kew TW9 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 30% of Kew privately rented and 64% owner-occupied, roughly half the TW9 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door across TW9 — and this being a short walk from Kew Gardens (District, Overground), with 41% of homes here being flats.
