Pictures & Mirrors Hanging

Professional hanging of pictures and mirrors in Cambridge

Level, secure and exactly where you want them

We hang pictures, frames, mirrors and wall art on masonry and plasterboard, using the right anchors and fixings for a clean, safe result. We can plan gallery walls, match heights across rooms, and centre items to furniture for a balanced look.

What we hang

  • Photo frames, canvases & artwork
  • Heavy mirrors (two-point or French cleat)
  • Clock mounts & statement pieces
  • Gallery walls with precise spacing
  • Picture rails & hanging systems (by request)

Fixings & approach

  • Stud finding and service checks where possible
  • Appropriate anchors: masonry plugs, spiral plasterboard anchors, toggles
  • Two-point fixing for level stability
  • Accurate measuring, laser/level alignment
  • Felt pads & anti-tilt where suitable

Before we visit

  • Tell us the sizes & quantities, and share a photo of each item’s back (brackets/wire).
  • Let us know the wall type (masonry or plasterboard) if known and your preferred heights.
  • For heavy mirrors, provide an approximate weight and room photos for positioning.
  • Clear the immediate area so we can measure and work safely.
Notes & limits: Very heavy or oversized items may require two-person handling and specialist fixings. We avoid drilling where hidden services are suspected. High ladder work and external installs are not included in this service.

Absolutely — we’ll measure, lay out on the floor, agree spacing/centres, and then install accurately with a level for a cohesive look.

We’ll assess the weight, wall construction and bracket type. Heavier mirrors often need a French cleat or multiple fixings into studs/masonry, and may require two-person handling.
