TV Mounting Questions, Answered

Starting at $99 for TVs up to 55 inches, $129 for 56 to 85 inches, and $279 for screens over 85 inches or a full wall setup. Every job is quoted flat before we start. Full pricing.

A larger screen needing two installers, masonry walls like brick or stone, us supplying the mount, and a full raceway cable run. All of it is discussed and included in the flat quote before any work happens.

No, prices assume you provide the mount, which most people already have. If you would rather not shop for one, we supply and install a quality mount rated for your TV for a fixed $100.

They may add a small charge, because they take longer and use different hardware. You will hear that number before we start, not after.

No. Flat quotes only. If a job turns out trickier than expected, that is our problem rather than an extra line on your bill.

Cash, Check, Venmo, Apple Cash, Cash App. Payment is due when the work is finished and you are happy with it.

Everything from small bedroom sets up to 98 inch class panels. Anything over 85 inches is quoted individually because the mount, the wall, and getting it into the room all need checking first.

Yes, routinely. It is a two person install with a mount rated for the panel weight, anchored into studs or appropriate masonry anchors. More on large TVs.

Yes. Those start at $279 and are quoted individually. Send the model number and a photo of the wall.

Only if you do not already have one, and many TVs come with one or are bought alongside one. If you would rather not choose, we supply and install a quality mount for a fixed $100.

For most living rooms, a fixed mount, which is also the cheapest. Get a tilt mount if the TV will sit above eye level. Full motion is only worth it if you genuinely watch from two very different spots. Full comparison.

Fixed holds the TV flat and still. Tilt angles the screen downward, which helps when it sits high. Full motion swings out and rotates. Pull down mounts drop the TV to eye level, which is the only type that fixes a too high fireplace placement.

The spacing of the four threaded holes on the back of your TV, in millimetres. A 400 x 400 TV has holes 400mm apart both ways. Your mount has to match that pattern or include an adapter.

Yes, and it is the most common case. The fixing goes into the studs behind the drywall, since drywall alone carries no structural load.

Yes, using masonry anchors set into the brick itself where possible. Very strong, and may add a small charge.

Yes. It takes longer because the anchor points have to be chosen around the stones and joints rather than measured on a grid, so the final position may shift an inch or two.

Yes, common in older Lexington homes. Plaster is brittle so it needs careful drilling, but the fixing still goes into the studs behind it.

Yes, using toggle hardware rated for the load. Metal studs are common in apartments and newer builds, and they need the right anchors rather than wood screws. More on wall types.

Yes. The anchor goes into the concrete or block behind, which is extremely strong. Common in basements.

Often, but not always. If the wall above gets hot when the fireplace runs, heat will shorten the life of the TV. If the mantel is high, the screen ends up above comfortable viewing height. Check both before committing. Our honest guide.

Yes, over time. Sustained warmth above the manufacturer operating range degrades the panel and electronics gradually rather than suddenly. Run the fireplace and feel the wall where the TV would go.

A tilt mount for most installs. If the mantel is high, a pull down mount is the only type that genuinely brings the screen to eye level.

Yes, using white surface raceway that can be painted to match your wall. Basic cable tidying is included in every install. How it works.

No. We use surface raceway rather than cutting into walls. Proper in wall cabling needs in wall rated cable, a recessed outlet, and drywall patching, which is a different trade. We would rather be straight about that than half do it.

Yes, HDMI, power, soundbar, and streaming device cables all go in the same raceway run.

Usually yes, and we do it often. Check your lease first, since some landlords have rules about wall fixings. More for renters.

A typical mount uses four to six anchor holes, all hidden behind the TV, and they fill and paint easily when you move out.

Yes, read your lease or ask your property manager, ideally getting the answer in writing. We install TVs, we cannot advise on what your lease permits.

No, not safely. A wall mounted TV has to be anchored into something structural. If holes genuinely are not allowed, a stand is the honest answer.

About an hour for a single TV on drywall. Longer for masonry walls, oversized screens, above fireplace placements, or a full cable run. We tell you the expected time when we quote.

TV size or model number, the wall type if you know it, whether you have a mount, and a photo of the wall from a few feet back. The photo answers most of it at once.

Helpful but not required. If it is heavy or awkward, leave it and we will handle it.

If there is something heavy against the wall, pulling it out a couple of feet saves time. Otherwise we will work around it.

Yes, someone over 18 needs to be there. You will want to approve the exact height and position before anything is drilled.

Most quotes go out the same day you get in touch, and scheduling is usually quick. Evenings and weekends are generally available.

Yes. Offices, waiting rooms, break rooms, conference rooms, and small retail and hospitality spaces. Business installs.

Yes. Tell us your hours and we will schedule before opening or after closing so the work does not disrupt customers or staff.

Yes, an itemised invoice suitable for your records, made out to a company name and carrying a reference if you need one.

Yes. If your building or property manager needs written confirmation before work starts, just ask.
