"This discount seems like a good deal, but it really isn't. this $29.99 procures such minimal service that it is quite meaningless. Once you contact Dish (which you must) you realize you could have done just as well or better just going directly to their website. Satellite Country really provides very little in terms of service or discount. I found it to be a bit of a run around. This was supposed to offer a $25 visa card so it seems your initial cost will be minimal. However, the retailer insists you mail them a form (that you must wait for them to send you) and you must send them a processing fee to obtain the card you were promised. To add insult to injury you must provide it by postal money order (which of course is not free) so your $25 is reduced to $22.05 before you ever see it. I found this tedious to say the least (which I am sure works to their advantage) and many months later the envelope is still sitting on my desk waiting for me to make time to buy the money order.  I will be more careful of coupons offered in the future.

"The experience was incredible. Top of line in customer service. Their staff is very friendly and knowledgable. The technician that installed my Directv satellite system was not only friendly but very considerate to my wants and needs in relation to what I expected from the installation process. I will definitely recommend them to all my friends and family."

Satellite TV Service questions, answered by experts

Professionals mount TVs using specialized tools and knowledge of different wall materials, ensuring safe support.

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. 

Fire and electronics typically don't mix, but that doesn't mean you can't mount your TV on a brick fireplace. However, you should proceed with caution. If you do not use your fireplace regularly, you can be assured that your TV will remain undamaged. However, if you do take advantage of it, be aware that hot air, containing soot, will travel upwards. Even with the flue fully open, the temperature above the fireplace can still get very high.

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.

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.
