"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."
"We hired them to take down a television off of a wall mount and install a newer and larger television on the same wall mount. Mike and Shane were very polite and professional in their work. Appointment was set for 5:00 PM and they called around 1:00 to say they were running well ahead of schedule. They came over promptly after the call and had our new tv installed before the football game I wanted to watch. We would not hesitate to recommend them."
"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!"
"Cransten is the greatest. This is the first time I ever mounted a tv on a wall but I can't imagine it would go any better. Steve was very helpful with the process. He was very thorough and courteous. I will use this company again in the near future and you should as well."
"Fantastic! We had hired a handyman from SMAP ( send me a pro ) to install a new bathroom door for us and he did such a terrible job that the door would not even close. Hg came out and corrected the situation so we now have a perfectly functioning door. We now know who to recommend , and who not to recommend, when work needs to be done."

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.
Finding a professional to mount your television to the wall is a little challenging because no licenses exist for this type of work. You could ask friends or neighbors for recommendations. Check out online reviews, too. Typically, though, almost any local handyman can do the work. A local electronics store or the place where you bought the TV may have a recommendation for you. A local framer or drywall installer might do the work for you as well. If you need an outlet installed for the new TV, an electrician may do both items for you.
In most cases, you should not put a TV on a fireplace mantel. The minimum width required to put a TV safely on a shelf or mantel is 10 inches, but pre-made mantels are usually too shallow, averaging at only seven inches deep. If you do choose to place a TV above a mantel, it should be mounted to the wall. However, do so cautiously as heat radiating from the fireplace could potentially cause damage to electronics.
The cost to have a TV professionally mounted typically ranges from $160 to $360, with a national average of about $260. This price is for labor and does not include the TV mount itself. Several factors can affect the final cost, including the size of the TV and the type of mount used; for example, a fireplace mount costs more than an under-cabinet one. If you want to hide the wires within the wall, the price can increase significantly, potentially to $1,000 or more. For an accurate estimate, it is best to contact a local TV mounting service.
