Pictures, prints, and artwork hung level with the right fixings for your wall type. I make sure heavy pieces stay put and everything looks professionally installed.
Don't Risk Your Investment
You've spent good money on that artwork. Don't trust it to a wonky nail hammered hopefully into the wall. Different walls need different fixings, and getting it wrong means cracked frames, damaged plaster, or worse - your picture on the floor in pieces.
💡 Pro tip: That heavy mirror you're worried about? It needs more than the flimsy picture hook that came with it. Proper wall fixings are cheap insurance for expensive artwork.
Why Proper Hanging Matters
Here's what separates professional installation from "having a go":
| ✅ Done Right | ❌ Done Wrong |
|---|---|
| True level using spirit level | "Looks about right" - then it doesn't |
| Correct fixings for wall type | Whatever's in the kitchen drawer |
| Multiple fixings for heavy pieces | One nail and hope |
| Professional finish | Marked walls, wonky pictures |

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Multiple pieces?** Hanging several pictures in one visit is much more efficient than separate callouts - and you'll save money doing them together. **Old house with lath and plaster walls?** They're everywhere in Exeter's period properties. They need special fixings because there's nothing behind the plaster to screw into. I deal with them all the time. **Not sure where to hang it?** I'm happy to make suggestions based on light, height, and sightlines. Sometimes an outside opinion helps!
Frequently Asked Questions about Art installation in Topsham
How do you hang art on different wall types?
Each wall needs different fixings - plasterboard needs wall anchors, solid walls need rawlplugs, lath and plaster (common in older Topsham houses) needs special toggles. I check what you've got and use the right kit to keep your artwork secure.
Can you hang really heavy pieces?
Yes - I've hung everything from large gilt mirrors to heavy canvas prints. Anything over about 10kg needs proper wall fixings, not just picture hooks. I'll assess the weight and wall type to make sure it's bombproof.
Do I need to provide the fixings?
I bring a full range of picture hooks, wall anchors, and heavy-duty fixings, so you don't need to worry about it. If you've already got specific hooks you want to use, that's fine too.
What if my walls aren't straight?
Most walls in Topsham's older houses aren't! I use a spirit level to hang everything true, not following the wonky ceiling or skirting. Makes a massive difference to how professional it looks.
Can you hang a whole gallery wall?
Absolutely - gallery walls are great fun. I can follow your layout or help you arrange the pieces for the best effect. Price depends on how many pieces, but we can do the lot in one visit.
