If you've spent some time on restoration work before moving into your new home, then you'll be keen to set everything up quickly. You won't feel like you're really at home until all your furniture is in place and you've added some personal touches.
Rather than spend time hanging your photo frames, pictures and mirrors on walls yourself, why not consider hiring a professional picture hanging service? What are the benefits?
Get a Professional Job
Even if you're OK at DIY, hanging stuff on walls isn't always easy. If you're in an older home, you don't yet know what condition its walls are in and how easy it'll be to put things up. If you make mistakes, you could end up with unsightly holes in the plaster that you need to fix. Your pictures and mirrors could sit a little precariously on their fittings.
If you hire a hanging service, then they have experience dealing with all kinds of walls. They can use the right fitting for the task at hand and ensure that all your stuff goes up safely and without causing any damage.
Keep Things Safe
While you may be confident about hanging some frames or pictures around your home, some pose extra problems. You could have increased safety risks. For example, if you want to set up a series of frames as a photo montage up a staircase wall, then there might be a point where you can't reach the place where the next frame should go. If you try to cobble together a solution so you can reach a bit higher, you could easily fall and hurt yourself.
It's also not always easy to hang heavy things like big mirrors, weighty frames or oversized pieces of art. You need to make sure that fixings can spread and take the weight. Get this wrong, and the piece is likely to fall down.
A picture hanging service has the experience to safely deal with difficult to reach areas. They also know how to hang heavy or unusually sized things so that they stay up safely.
Get Placement Advice
If you aren't sure where to hang your stuff, then you might end up just using it to fill wall space. This does a job but doesn't always create the right effect. Picture hangers can give you advice on where to hang specific pieces. They can help you choose rooms and positions so that you showcase your wall art to the best effect.
To find out more, contact a local picture hanging service and ask how they can help you out.

Howdy! My name is Eric and I am here to tell you all about the joys of completing a restoration project. Until recently, I had no idea of the pleasure which could be had when working on a project to repair an item. I used to throw things away when they were worn out. However, my friend realised what I was doing and invited me to the local restoration club. At the club, we are taught how to repair furniture, jewellery and other items. I really love attending the club and I have learnt a great deal about this fascinating subject.
