"Robby was great to work with from start to finish. He installed a television mount above a stone fireplace and supplied an appropriate mount for the tv. He was able to drill through the natural stone to attach the mount to the studs. It turned out absolutely perfectly and he showed me how to make any future adjustments that might be needed. He helped us with locating the best positioning as well. He was obviously experienced and had no problem handling what seemed to be tricky installation. He kept in touch by phone and text, arrived right on time, came here within days of initial contact, cleaned up, and charged exactly what he quoted which was very reasonable. Genuinely nice guy and highly recommend him."
"What an absolutely fantastic experience it was having Dustin from Elevated Entertainment set up my TV. Dustin mounted the 55” Sony Bravia tv, connected my soundbar, as well as dvd player, and he meticulously transferred all the streamline apps to this new TV. He also assembled the tv stand as well. I highly recommend reaching out to Dustin for your tv mounting services, etc. He is professional, capable, knowledgeable and patient. As a senior, it was a comfort having someone of his expertise assemble and set up my tv. Further, before he left, he made sure I knew exactly how to use the dvd player, Sony tv and soundbar!! Thank you Dustin for your attention to detail and expertise. You were a life saver."
"Jesse did an outstanding job! He transformed our back deck by installing a railing and gutters, He repaired the flooring and the steps leading off the deck and added non-slip strips. He also power-washed the house and, noticing some minor issues, made some additional suggestions and repairs. Jesse was very friendly. and pleasant. The cost was reasonable and the work was completed in a timely fashion. We couldn’t be happier with the results. We recommend Renaissance Property Services wholeheartedly and without reservation. Great job!"
"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."
It’s highly recommended to use studs for a TV mount. The last thing you want is to be watching your favorite show when the TV falls off the wall. Studs are much stronger than drywall and quite a bit stronger than drywall anchors but, if you can’t find the studs or there simply aren’t any where you need them, you can use drywall anchors. It’s extremely important to make sure the anchors are rated for the load of the TV. We recommend using anchors that are rated far beyond the weight of whatever you’re hanging. Our suggestion is metal drywall toggle anchors.
Yes, drywall can hold a 50-pound TV. However, when mounting a TV, you’ll either need to attach it to wall studs or use drywall anchors. If you use anchors, make sure to buy a type that can hold at least 50 pounds. Molly bolts, threaded anchors, and toggle bolts are all good options. For extra support, you can also install a wall mounting plate with the anchors.
Coax cable connects to your television, modem, or cable box. Look for a female coax connection on these devices. Your coax cable will connect to any of these. The other end of the wire runs to the service connection coming into the house.
If you don’t have studs in the area where you want to install your TV mount, you may still be able to install a TV mount on drywall. The easiest way to install a mount on drywall is by using drywall anchors—but not just any plastic anchors. Choose molly bolts or toggle anchors, which have a weight capacity of around 50 pounds. For added support, consider pairing drywall anchors with a wall mounting plate. Extra heavy TVs may need to be mounted via the ceiling joists or beams.
You will be placing holes in the wall to hang the mounting bracket. If you’re mounting a large TV, the bolts in use could make significant holes around half an inch in diameter. Other than a few holes, though, the process of mounting the TV should not cause significant damage to the wall, unless you make an error and miss the wall stud, tearing out drywall. Should you decide to remove the mount later, the DIY drywall repair cost for a small hole usually is $10 to $30. It’s a repair you can do in a few minutes.
