Nicolas did a great job installing 13x artworks in the lobbies of 3x of our locations. They weren't simple, as they used 4 posts and had to be creatively lined up so they wouldn't look bad when they were done. They came out great. Nicolas showed up at exactly the time he said he would, and knocked it out all day. He's not cheap, but the end result matters. Why spend a decent amount of cash for the art, but have it hung up where it looks bad? Wouldn't make sense. If you want a professional job for your business (or home as well I'm sure) definitely hire Nicolas.

Nikolas hung our large painting quickly and exactly as we wanted--demonstrating first-rate professional skill and years of experience. He's easy and fun to work with. We will use him for all our art installation needs.

Nickokas has experience working in the art field. He made great recommendations on how to best display the art. One was a heavy metal sculpture. I will be requesting his help again!

Exceptional work ethic and highest level of craftsmanship. On time arrival, up front pricing and all equipment to complete the task. I would recommend Nickolas for any art hanging project.

Nikolas of Expert Fine Art Installation was superb. I’m addition to being able to hang items effortlessly, he also weighed in, at my request, on where items should go in my home. He was fantastic and I am so happy with how everything turned out! He also wore a mask the entire time without my having to ask! The phot below reflects just three of the items that were hung.

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  I charge $100.00 an hour for Art Installation, with a one hour minimum per booking. Each hour after the first is subdivided in the normal fashion, so 1.5 hrs is $150.00, 2 hours is $200.00, etc. If the job site is more than an hour drive from my office there is an additional $150.00 travel fee. This covers the 2 hours (or often more ) of extra drive time - there and back - which can take up 1/2 or more of the work day. I often do jobs that are a 2 or 3 hour (or more) drive away, from down to San Diego or to as far north as San Francisco or even, Napa. I can easily install from 5 to 10 works in an hour, depending on their size and their specific installation location requirements. It’s also important to consider how long it takes the client and I to decide upon the works placement. If, for any booking, a second art installer is required, I work with a few equally highly experienced expert installers who can be brought on as part of a job. They are paid the same rate as I am and, if applicable, also receive the driving fee as well.

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  I prefer to talk or text on the phone to get a sense of the specifics of the job. I do ask that you text me your address asap to confirm the booking and the details of our appointment. Thus I have your address and your number so that I can contact you a day in advance to reconfirm. I accept cash, check, Venmo, Zelle or Paypal, which are payed upon completion of the job.

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  Please see my extensive CV/Resume which is attached to every quote that I send.
