Picture Hanging Service in College Park, FL
Craftsman bungalows and Edgewater Drive style
In short
We hang art and mirrors in College Park's 1920s–1950s bungalows and newer infill homes, using plaster-safe techniques in older houses and stud-mounted hardware for heavy pieces.
Picture hanging in College Park
College Park is known for Edgewater Drive's restaurants and shops, its lakes — Adair, Silver, Formosa and Ivanhoe — and streets named after universities. Homes range from tiny 1920s bungalows to large two-story rebuilds, and owners here often have real art collections they want hung properly.
Homes and walls in College Park
Original homes often have plaster or a mix of plaster and later drywall. Mid-century homes in the area tend to be concrete block. New infill houses are drywall with tall ceilings and large open walls.
Plaster and lath walls
Original plaster in College Park's older homes is hard on the surface but brittle underneath, and a hammered nail can crack it. We tape the spot, pre-drill with a carbide bit and use plaster-rated anchors — or picture-rail hooks where the moulding survives.
Concrete block (CBS) walls
Many College Park homes have concrete block walls, often with a thin drywall layer on furring strips. Nails won't hold here. We drill with a hammer drill and masonry bit, then use concrete screws or sleeve anchors — the strongest option for heavy mirrors, TVs and shelves.
Drywall walls
Drywall in College Park is usually half-inch board over wood studs in houses and over metal studs in condos and apartments. We locate framing with a scanner for anything heavier than about 20 lb and use toggle or self-drilling anchors between studs, so frames sit flush and stay put.
Typical jobs we handle in College Park
For College Park's older homes we test every wall before drilling, since one house can mix original plaster, later drywall and paneling.
Tall ceilings and two-story walls are common in College Park. We bring extension ladders and stabilizers, and keep a consistent eye-line so high art still connects with the room.
Local tip: Older College Park homes often have uneven floors and ceilings. We level to true horizontal with a laser, then check by eye against door frames so the result looks right, not just measures right.

College Park picture hanging FAQ
My College Park house has plaster in some rooms and drywall in others — is that a problem?
+
No, it's very common here. We test each wall before drilling and switch hardware room by room, so each piece is anchored correctly for that surface.
Can you hang a large original painting in College Park?
+
Yes. We use two-point D-ring hanging or a French cleat and anchor into studs or block, which keeps large paintings level and secure.
Will hanging art crack plaster walls in my College Park home?
+
Not when it's done properly. We pre-drill with carbide bits and use plaster-rated anchors, which avoids the cracking nails cause.
How much does picture hanging cost in College Park?
+
Most Orlando-area picture hanging jobs cost between $99 and $350. A $99 service call covers up to three standard pieces; extra pictures are typically $15–$30 each, a 6–12 piece gallery wall runs about $225–$425, and heavy mirrors $95–$225.
