TV on the wall, at the right height.
Any size, on brick, block or plasterboard. Most TVs go up too high, and you feel it in your neck by the second episode. We get it right first time.
What the job covers
- The bracket fixed into studs, brick or block, never just the plaster.
- Cables hidden inside the wall where the wall allows.
- The TV tuned, connected and working before we leave.
- A sound bar can go up in the same visit.
Where it should sit
For a normal couch, the middle of the screen sits about 1.1 m off the floor, close to eye height when you're sitting. Bigger screens move the couch back, not the TV up.
Over a fireplace or in a bedroom it changes, and we'll talk it through on the day.
What we'll ask you, and why
- How big is the TV?
- Size and weight decide the bracket, and whether it's a one or two person lift.
- What's the wall made of?
- Brick, block and plasterboard all need different fixings. Not sure? A photo is plenty.
- Where are the power and antenna points?
- That tells us whether the cables can be hidden in the wall or need a neat cover.
- What else plugs in?
- Sound bar, console or set-top box. We plan the cables for all of it, not just the TV.
TV mounting questions
How high should I mount my TV?
For a normal couch, the middle of the screen sits about 1.1 m off the floor, close to eye height when you're sitting. A bigger screen means sitting further back, not mounting it higher.
Can you mount a TV on plasterboard?
Yes. The bracket goes into the studs behind the plasterboard, or uses fixings rated for the weight. It never hangs on the plaster alone.
Can you hide the TV cables?
Where the wall allows, the cables run inside the wall. On brick or block, or where there's a beam in the way, we use a neat cover instead.
Can a TV go above a fireplace?
Sometimes. Heat and height both matter, because above a fireplace is usually too high to watch comfortably. We'll talk through the options on the day.
