How much does picture hanging cost in San Antonio?
Our minimum is $195 for the first hour, which covers labor, travel across San Antonio, and basic mounting hardware. After the first hour, it's $125/hr prorated in 15-minute increments. Most picture hanging jobs — including multi-frame arrangements — are completed within one to two hours.
How high should pictures be hung?
The standard rule is to hang art so the center of the piece is at 57–60 inches from the floor — roughly average eye level when standing. Above furniture, the bottom of the frame typically sits 6–8 inches above the piece below it. We guide you through the placement decision before anything goes on the wall, factoring in your ceiling height, furniture, and the visual weight of the piece.
Can you hang pictures on plaster walls in older San Antonio homes?
Absolutely. Many homes in Alamo Heights, Terrell Hills, King William, and other established San Antonio neighborhoods have plaster walls, which are harder and more brittle than drywall. We use the right drill bits and anchors for plaster and know how to avoid cracking. This is one of the key reasons hiring a specialist matters in older San Antonio homes.
Do you bring all the hardware or do I need to supply it?
We bring all standard hanging hardware — picture hooks, wall anchors, screws, and toggle bolts. For specialty hardware like security fittings, museum-quality hanging systems, or custom French cleats, we'll let you know in advance if anything specific is needed. Basic hardware is included in our rate.
How many pictures can you hang in one visit?
There's no hard limit. We've done single pieces in a few minutes and full homes with 100+ frames in a few hours. The more you have, the more efficient it is to book us for a longer block. Text us your full list and we'll estimate the time honestly.
Do you serve all of San Antonio?
Yes — we provide picture hanging service throughout San Antonio and the surrounding area including Alamo Heights, Stone Oak, The Dominion, Helotes, Boerne, New Braunfels, Schertz, Universal City, Selma, and Bulverde. For locations further out, just ask and we'll let you know our availability.
