Mastering your walls

Our picture hanging service covers Primrose Hill, Chalcot Square, Regent’s Park Road and the wider NW1 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 a Chalcot Crescent fireplace to a 30-piece install across a Regent’s Park Road family home, we bring the same meticulous approach to every job.

Picture hanging Primrose Hill

Working in Primrose Hill's pastel terraces and mews properties

Primrose Hill has a property mix you won’t find anywhere else in central London. The famous pastel-coloured Victorian terraces around Chalcot Square and Chalcot Crescent are the most photographed houses in NW1, with soft-painted brick fronts, lath and plaster interiors, original cornicing, and the occasional original picture rail still in place. Mews properties run through Chalcot Mews and St George’s Terrace Mews, typically brick with later refurbishments and mixed substrates wall to wall. Larger Victorian semi-detached villas back onto the Park, with high-ceilinged drawing rooms and ornate ceiling roses. Modern apartment buildings along Adelaide Road and Eton Avenue add metal-stud plasterboard to the mix. We arrive with the right kit for all four, and we’ll always confirm the wall type before any drilling starts.

The walls we work with in Primrose Hill

Three substrates dominate. Lath and plaster is the wall type in most of the Victorian terraces around Chalcot Square, with a soft outer layer, timber lath beneath, and original cornicing that needs careful planning to work around. We use longer fixings and the correct masonry bit at low speed to avoid cracking the plaster. Brick with plaster skim is common in the mews properties and the Victorian villas: drill through plaster into solid brick, with the right size masonry plug for the weight. Metal-stud plasterboard in the Adelaide Road and Eton Avenue apartment buildings needs Gripit or Toggler fixings sized to the weight. Original Victorian picture rails are still in place in many Primrose Hill terraces, sitting between 2.2m and 2.4m from the floor, and a sound rail will hold 15 to 20kg per metre distributed across hooks. Where the rail is in good order, we’ll hang from it directly and avoid drilling the wall.

Would highly recommend Conor from Hang it Services. He did a great job with about 50 pictures and a heavy mirror in my house. He took time to advise me which pictures could stay where they are, which could be rehung or regrouped and the best place for them to go. He then worked quickly and professionally to get everything up by the end of the day. I am very happy with the result!

Extremely happy with the service I received from Hang It Services. Callum put up a large very heavy mirror and several pictures for us. He advised on placement knowledgeably and was meticulous with measurements to ensure that the items were hung where we agreed and perfectly straight. He was professional and friendly. I wouldn’t hesitate to use this company again.

I had Rowan to hang about 30 pictures both large and small after a redecoration and he’s done a fantastic job and also gave invaluable advice on placement. Some are hung lower than I would have put them or grouped slightly differently but this is where it pays to use an expert rather than getting in a handyman as they look so very good.

James visited for the second time to hang some more pictures. From initial enquiry to carrying out the task is quick. He takes time to explain the options of hanging and also what will look best. He works efficiently and tidily. I would have no hesitation in recommending James for any hanging requirements that you may have.

Absolutely loved the experience of having ‘Hang It’ sort all my pictures out. James was brilliant and has such a good eye for what works where .  I can’t recommend them enough,  from the super friendly and efficient David in the office, to meeting and spending the day with James.
Moving house can be so stressful but using such a brilliant company to hang your pictures is definitely a wonderful treat.
Thanks guys , Gaynor
