FAQ

Why call a Picture Hanging Service?
Picture Hanging is not a handyman job. A hammer and a nail is not enough to bring clarity to your art collection and balance to your home.
We find practical solutions with an artistic eye.
Picture UP ensures the artwork is handled correctly and securely arranged on your wall.

What is your price structure?
Picture UP charges a half-hourly rate of $60 (starting from $100 for first 30 min, incl. travel).
Price and time is subject to item size and quantity.

How long will it take to hang pictures in my house?
Every project is different. It can be an easy quick job or a tricky business. As an approximate guide 5 - 6 average sized artworks can be hung per hour and the average house should take no more than 2-3 hours.
You have to calculate more time for pictures in a row or gallery-walls which include more measuring.
Mirrors need more time for secure fixing (screwing in wall, finding studs, adding fixtures).

If you are able to assist and it is safe, you are welcome to take over the assist art handler role.
