Professional magnetic board fitting for kitchens, offices, playrooms, and home offices. Whether it's a large whiteboard for planning, a memo board for the family, or a notice board for the office, we'll mount it securely and level on any wall type.
Magnetic boards are brilliant for organisation - but only if they're fitted properly. A wonky whiteboard or a memo board that falls off the wall isn't much use to anyone. We fit all types of magnetic boards securely, ensuring they're level, stable, and mounted at the right height for comfortable use.
Different boards need different approaches. A large commercial whiteboard needs substantial fixings into solid walls or studs. Smaller kitchen memo boards might be fine with standard wall plugs. We assess your wall type and board weight to use the right fixings every time.
| Board Type | Typical Size | Mounting Method | Time Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kitchen memo board | 30x40cm | Wall plugs or adhesive | 20 mins |
| Home office whiteboard | 90x60cm | Wall plugs to studs | 30 mins |
| Commercial whiteboard | 120x90cm | Heavy-duty fixings | 45 mins |
| Notice board (framed) | Various | Appropriate to weight | 30 mins |
We also consider positioning. Too high and it's awkward to write on. Too low and you're bending down. We'll discuss the best height based on who'll be using it and mount it accordingly.

What to Expect
Before we arrive: Decide where you want the board positioned. Clear the wall area and have the board unpacked. If you haven't got the board yet, send us the product details and we can advise on suitability.
During the visit: We'll check the wall construction, mark the fixing points, and confirm the position with you before drilling. We'll fit the board securely, check it's level in both directions, and test the magnetic surface if it comes with magnets.
After completion: You'll have a perfectly mounted magnetic board ready to use immediately. We'll clean up any dust from drilling and show you how to remove it safely if you ever need to in the future.
🔧 DIY Tips
Planning: Use a stud finder on plasterboard walls. Mounting into studs is much stronger than cavity fixings for heavier boards.
Levelling: Mark the top edge position with light pencil. Use a spirit level to draw a guide line. Don't trust your eye - walls and ceilings are rarely straight.
Common mistakes: Using screws that are too long (they hit pipes or wires), not checking the wall construction first, or using inadequate fixings for the board weight.
When to call us: If you're uncertain about what's behind the wall, dealing with a heavy commercial board, or want a perfect level installation first time.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
Send us a photo of where you want the board fitted and the board itself (or a link to the product). This helps us understand the wall type and come prepared with the right fixings.
If you're buying the board separately, we're happy to advise on what works well for your space. Some cheaper boards have flimsy frames that bend when you try to mount them - we can steer you towards better quality options.
Magnetic boards fitted above radiators can warp over time from the heat. We'll advise on positioning if this is a concern.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does magnetic board fitting cost?
Magnetic board fitting starts at £60 for the first hour. Most single board installations take around 30 minutes. If you have multiple boards or complex mounting requirements, we'll quote based on time needed.
Can you fit magnetic boards on plasterboard walls?
Yes. We use appropriate fixings for your wall type - whether plasterboard, brick, or concrete. For plasterboard, we ensure the board is mounted to studs or use proper cavity fixings rated for the weight.
Do I need to supply the board and fixings?
You can supply your own board, or we can source it for you. We carry common fixings but for specialist boards we'll advise what's needed and can collect materials on your behalf.
Will the board be perfectly level?
Absolutely. We use spirit levels and measuring tools to ensure your magnetic board is perfectly straight and positioned exactly where you want it. That's the difference between DIY and professional fitting.
