What does a shelf installation include?
Common shelf installation services include building wardrobe and pantry shelves and hanging wall shelving. Your professional will ensure your shelf has the right fittings, angles, and is structurally sound. Popular shelf installation tasks include:
Install a floating shelf
A floating shelf is attached to a wall with no visible means of support, and are popular for their modern, minimalistic look. To begin installing your floating shelf, your handyman will assess the space and use a stud finder to mark the most secure spot for the brackets. They’ll use an electric drill to make a hole and secure the brackets, using a level to ensure everything lines up perfectly. Once the brackets are installed, they’ll measure the space between them and drill into the shelving to fit these exact measurements. Then they’ll slide the shelving into the brackets.
Install a hanging shelf
Your hanging shelf installer will make sure the best type of nail is used for your wall material and the best position to install your shelf. They will use a level if you’re installing more than one hanging shelf to ensure they’re mounted evenly. Your installer will advise how much weight the shelf will be able to bear and answer any questions you may have.
Install a wardrobe or pantry shelf
Your shelving installer will advise on the best kind of shelving to suit your space - fixed, adjustable, corner, floating, or pull out. They will then measure the space. If you’re hiring them to make the shelving too, they’ll let you know how long it will take them to build your custom shelving. Once the shelves are ready, they’ll use their tools to expertly screw your new shelves into place. If you opted for sliding or rotating shelves, they’ll ensure the shelves pull out smoothly.
Install a garage shelf
Getting your garage or workshop organised with shelving can help with storage and productivity. Your handyman will advise what type of shelving will best suit your space and align this with your weight-bearing requirements. With overhead shelving, your installer will attach the brackets to the ceiling where the joists are located - this is the strongest point in your ceiling.
Your handyman will properly measure the space for your overhead shelving and make sure it will not interfere with your garage door, lighting, and work area. They will then install your shelving, with the longest part going across the joists so that your new shelves will have the most support possible and not overburden the joists.

St Luke's, Greater London
10th Mar 2025
We’re looking for an experienced builder/decorator to complete some work in our office. Scope of Work: ✅ Wall Repairs – Fill and tidy up drill holes in a partition wall where a wooden plank was previously mounted for a TV. ✅ Socket Removal – Remove a dual power socket, dual ethernet, and HDMI slot from the middle of a wall (please advise if terminating power cables is a complex job). ✅ Shelf Installation – Install two shelves on a very hard wall (previous attempts with a standard drill failed, so an SDS drill or similar is likely needed). ✅ Painting a Small Room – Prepare and paint an 11m² room (walls may need some prep). Timing & Access: 🕘 Work will need to take place over multiple days to allow for wall filling and drying before painting. 📍 Office near Old St, London 🚪 Access available 9 AM – 5 PM (limited availability outside these hours). Requirements: • Must have own tools, including a powerful drill (SDS or equivalent for shelf installation). • Experience with wall repair, decorating, and electrical work (if required for socket removal). • Able to complete work neatly and professionally in an office environment. Budget is a guide—please quote based on expected time and materials.


Working with Jason was great; he was very responsive, consulted well and did a great job on the decorating work we needed done. Would use again!
Install shelves in cupboard

Greenwich, Greater London, SE10

I have a cupboard in my hallway. I would like you to measure and shelves into it to make the storage space better / easier to use. My priority is to install some shelves in the space where the shoes are, to act as a shoe rack, but cost dependent I would consider adding shelves to the rest of the space. Ideally I would have 6 L shaped shelves (for the right and centre of the cupboard) and then some shelves installed on the right of the cupboard that sit in between the L shaped shelves. I would need you to measure and provide the shelves, as well as installation. Please provide a breakdown in your quote for materials and labour. Thanks.

Stoke Newington, Greater London, N16
2nd Feb 2025
I’ve got loads of shelves I need to be hung up. The walls are all brick / concrete. So you’ll need to have a proper drill with the correct drill bit. I have some extra screws and wall plugs, but if you have good quality ones, specific to concrete walls / shelf hanging, please bring those. I also have a few mirrors and wall hangings that need to be put up. Also will need help hanging rods / rails for hanging clothes. Please bring a ladder as well. This will probably take a good 3 hours min I’m thinking.
