Picture Hanging Islington
Gallery-trained art and mirror installers covering Islington, Upper Street, Canonbury and the wider N1 area. Single pieces to full installs, family homes to Georgian terraces, mansion flats and designer projects.
Mastering your walls
Our picture hanging service covers Islington, Upper Street, Canonbury and the wider N1 area. We’re a London-based team of 14 gallery-trained installers and curators, rated five stars on Google and featured on BBC DIY SOS. From a single canvas above the sofa in an Essex Road flat to a full residential install across a Cloudesley Square Georgian terrace, we bring the same meticulous approach to every job.
Working in Islington's family homes, Georgian terraces and garden squares
Islington is one of London’s most design-aware residential neighbourhoods. The N1 mix includes thousands of Victorian terraced houses across the Essex Road and Liverpool Road grid, family flats in period conversions, and modern apartments around the Angel and City Road developments. We hang gallery walls up stairwells, single pieces over family-room mantels, and full residential rollouts for families moving in. A single piece in one room is just as welcome as a full house install.
Barnsbury and Canonbury hold some of London’s finest Georgian and early Victorian period stock. Cloudesley Square, Lonsdale Square, Gibson Square and Milner Square form a remarkable cluster of garden squares around Barnsbury, with original lath and plaster, ornate cornicing and the proportions of pre-Victorian London still intact. Canonbury Square, north of the Essex Road, holds a similar character and notable literary history.
Islington’s design-led culture is centred on Camden Passage — a small lane of antique shops, jewellery dealers and design boutiques running off Upper Street — and the wider Upper Street strip with its homewares, interior designers and gallery clients. The Almeida Theatre, Sadler’s Wells and the Business Design Centre add a creative-industry residential layer. We’ll always confirm the wall type before drilling, whatever the property.

Yes. The Georgian and early Victorian terraces around Barnsbury and Canonbury are some of London’s finest period stock.
