Pricing guide

The total cost is driven by the complexity and weight of the item being mounted and the wall material or fixings required. A straightforward single-item mount with standard anchors is typically less expensive than heavy, precision or masonry installs that need extra labour, specialist fixings or equipment. Callout/attendance and the time spent on site also affect the final quote, and separate licensed trades may be needed for electrical or structural work.

  • Item size and weight

    Larger or heavier items usually need extra hands, alignment time and stronger fixings, which increases scope.

  • Wall material and fixings required

    Masonry, concrete or tiled walls typically need specialist anchors or drill techniques compared with plasterboard.

  • Mounting complexity and precision

    Precision alignment, multi‑point mounts or specialist brackets usually add labour and setup time.

  • Need for additional trades

    Jobs that involve concealed wiring, fixed power points or structural changes often require a licensed electrician or engineer billed separately.

  • Callout and time on site

    The initial visit fee and the total hours spent installing multiple items or working in difficult access conditions affect the total cost.

Frequently asked questions

Do handymen need a licence?
Handyman work is generally unlicensed for routine mounting and hanging tasks. If the job requires fixed electrical connections or structural modifications, a licensed electrician or engineer will usually be needed and may be engaged and charged separately.
How long will the installation take?
Duration depends on the number of items, mount complexity, wall type and site access. Simple single‑item mounts are typically quicker, while heavy, precision or masonry installs usually take longer due to extra setup and safety measures.
Will the handyman provide fixings and brackets?
Most handymen typically supply standard anchors, bolts and brackets for routine mounts. Specialist heavy‑duty fixings, scaffold hire or non‑standard equipment are usually excluded and may be quoted separately.
What if my wall is masonry or tiled?
Masonry, concrete or tiled walls often trigger the heavier/technical profile because they need specialist fixings and drilling techniques. These surfaces usually increase labour and may require additional safety measures or equipment.
How accurate is the instant estimate?
Our estimates are built from research across thousands of local jobs and real pricing data. Use them as a guide when speaking to handymen — your actual quote will depend on your specific job.
How many quotes will I get?
We'll match you with up to 3 handymen initially. If you'd like more options, you can request additional matches.
Do I pay anything to get quotes?
No — the service is 100% free for homeowners.
Why do you need photos?
Clear photos cut surprises and price blowouts, saving you money.
