Need help to hang 3 framed pictures and 1 mirror on interior brick walls. Looking for a neat, level and secure installation with attention to spacing and alignment. Frames are lightweight and require accurate positioning. Mirror may require stronger fixings depending on wall type, so experience with different wall materials (gyprock, plaster or brick) is preferred. Please ensure items are hung securely and evenly spaced. I would like a clean, professional finish rather than a quick job. Happy to provide photos and measurements in advance. If you can supply appropriate hooks/anchors that is a bonus, otherwise I can purchase if advised.

Ken was brilliant - very punctual and efficient. He came back to recheck the frames as I thought there was an issue but all was ok in the end. Would highly recommend!
