Ceiling hook/fastener installation

Takes about 20 min

Ceiling hooks hold hanging plants, wind chimes, lanterns and indoor swings, and a hook that pulls out is a real safety risk. The carpenter locates solid slab rather than a false ceiling or beam edge, drills to the depth the anchor needs, and sets a hook or eye bolt rated for what you will hang. For a swing, they check the spot allows a safe swing path clear of walls and railings.

It takes about 20 minutes, at the fixed price shown on this page.

Buy the hook or fastener in advance, tell the carpenter what will hang from it, and have a stable ladder ready.
