Your TV mounting expert will help you fit your screen to any type of wallM
Need help to fit your new TV securely to the wall? Get advice for the optimum place to have your TV mounted based on your needs and requirements. Here is what you can expect from your Fantastic TV installation.
1. The first step is to check the wall and whether is it suitable to hold the weight of the TV with the TV bracket. Solid walls are a better option but if it's a plasterboard, the handyman can reinforce the wall before attaching the bracket. Then he will check the position of the power and aerial sockets. They should be within a 1-meter range of the mounting location.
2. With all that being done the TV installer will proceed with the installation. Each specialist is well-equipped with all the required tools to do the job safely and securely.
3. No one enjoys the mess of visible cables running along their wall-mounted TV and audio. To make things look neater, our expert London handyman can cut and fit metal conduit or plastic trunking when mounting your TV. In solid brick or concrete walls, a chase can be cut and then covered with a layer of skim plaster before painting. Worry not about the cleaning after the cable chasing. To minimise the amount of dust and debris from drilling or chasing into walls the TV mounting specialists always use protective sheets.

*Customer should provide the TV and TV mounting bracket prior to the service. The wall must be solid/sturdy, allowing the handymen to mount the TV without any additional reinforcement. Power and aerial sockets must be within 1 meter range of the mounting location. We do not provide TV and aerial service settings.
- To give you a fixed price, we need to know the size of your TV and the type of wall it will be mounted to.
For plasterboard walls, first we inspect the wall to see if it can hold a TV. The wall can be reinforced with wood and then the TV is mounted on the wood.

In most cases, the TV bracket is not included with your TV that's why it's essential to choose a compatible model with your new TV. Occasionally, we can provide the TV bracket for you if we know the exact make and model in order to avoid any complications. Keep in mind that their price will be added to your total TV wall installation cost later.
A: Please check if the TV (and its stand, if you have one) can easily fit inside the desired spot in your room. A few other pre-service requirements can include:
A: If you’re unsure of where to place your TV, your television installer will gladly assist you with finding the optimal spot. There are 3 things to keep in mind here: the power outlet’s accessibility, the location of wall studs (used to properly support the weight) and the place where you want to sit while watching a movie. Also, a tilting or swivel TV mount may be just the thing you need if you want better control over adjusting the view.
A: Robust walls made of brick or concrete are just fine for your TV installation service. However, walls made of plasterboard or lath are not optimal for a TV wall installation as they may not be able to carry the weight. That is why your handyman will always inspect your walls first before performing the service. If you have plasterboard walls, the expert can reinforce them with wooden panels before mounting the TV on top.
A: Just say the word and the experts will arrive with the right tools to mount your TV and safely conceal any stray wires to ensure your hazard-free, thriller-packed evening. The diligent specialists can install products by virtually any wall bracket manufacturer, namely: Sansum, Omnimount, Duronic, Vogel's, Ultimate mounts, Ross, VonHaus, Peerless, AVF, One for all, Proper, Sandstorm, Lumi, Meos and many more.
A: Yes, absolutely. If you want to hide the cables in a brick wall or plasterboard, then we can chase them into the wall. Cable concealing is another way to get a tidy look. By installing plastic trunking, the specialists can hide the wires so they will be protected.
A: Besides the TV wall mounting service, we can make a custom TV unit in the size and paint of your preference. Or, the handymen can assemble any type of flat pack furniture that meets your aesthetic demands, securely and in no time. So, it’s easy and fast to get the TV cabinet you wished for.
