Hang heavy mirrors and art
A pro hangs heavy mirrors and framed art level and into anchors that will hold them.
What this job involves
Heavy mirrors need more than a nail. The pro weighs the piece, picks the right anchor or a French cleat, and finds studs where possible. Each piece is hung level and at a good height. A gallery wall is laid out on the floor first so the spacing looks right before any holes are made. Plaster walls crack easily and need care.
What to have ready
- A count of pieces and roughly how heavy
- Where each one goes, with a photo of the wall
- The hanging hardware on hand, if any
- Whether the walls are drywall or plaster
What a fair price looks like
Most homeowners in our area pay between $90 and $250 for this job. Labor for a few pieces with anchors included.
This is a range to help you judge a quote, not a quote. The pro you are matched with gives you their own price, in writing for anything over $1,000, and you pay them directly. We charge the pro a small flat fee only after the job is done. We never ask you for payment.
What a good pro will ask you first
- How many pieces, and how heavy is the biggest?
- Drywall or plaster?
- Do you know where you want each one?
- Does the mirror have hangers on the back?
