How much does it cost to mount a TV in Tampa?
Our flat rates: $99 standard drywall install, $149 with hidden wires inside the wall, $249+ for brick / stone / concrete / above-fireplace / outdoor. No hourly billing, no hidden fees. Quote locked in writing before we drive out.
Do you offer same-day TV mounting in Tampa Bay?
Yes — call or text before 2pm Mon-Fri (noon weekends) and we usually have a same-day window. Most installs are 30-90 minutes total.
What areas of Tampa do you serve?
All of Hillsborough County: Tampa, South Tampa, Hyde Park, Westchase, Brandon, Riverview, Lutz, Wesley Chapel, Temple Terrace, New Tampa, Ybor City. Plus most of Pinellas (St. Pete, Clearwater) and parts of Pasco.
Can you mount on brick, stone, or concrete walls?
Absolutely — that's our $249 Custom tier. We use masonry-rated lag-shield anchors in the mortar joints (never the brick face). Anchor strength: 250-400 lbs each, with 4-6 anchors per mount.
Will you hide the cables inside the wall?
Yes — that's our Premium $149 tier. We install a code-rated recessed outlet behind the TV and run HDMI/power cables through the wall cavity to a second recessed plate near your devices. Zero cables visible.
Is it safe to mount a TV above the fireplace?
In 99% of Tampa homes, yes. Modern gas fireplaces stay below 110°F at the mantel. We measure with an IR thermometer to confirm. We use a tilt-down full-motion mount so you don't strain your neck looking up.
Can you mount a regular TV outdoors in my Tampa lanai?
Only if it's truly covered (no direct sun, no rain) and humidity stays moderate. Indoor TVs fail in 12-24 months in Florida. For real outdoor use we recommend Samsung Terrace or SunBriteTV — much more durable, and we install both.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes — fully insured contractor with $2M general liability. We can email a Certificate of Insurance to your HOA or condo management before the install.
Do you bring the wall mount, or do I need to buy one?
Either works. We carry common sizes (32-85") on the truck: fixed mounts $35, tilt $55, full-motion $95. All name-brand (Sanus, Kanto, Echogear). If you have one already, we use yours.
How high should the TV be mounted?
The center of the screen at your seated eye level — usually 42-50" from the floor for a couch. We measure your actual seating position, not a generic rule. Bedrooms (where you watch lying down): higher, 60-70".
How long does TV mounting take?
Standard install: 30-45 minutes. With wire concealment: 60-90 minutes. Above fireplace with hidden wires: 75-120 minutes. Outdoor lanai: 45-90 minutes.
Can you mount in a high-rise condo?
Yes — including the Bayshore towers, downtown condos, Channelside, and Aqua. Concrete-wall mounting is our specialty. We email a Certificate of Insurance to your building before arrival.
What if my wall is metal-stud (steel framing)?
We use rated steel-stud anchors (TOGGLER toggle bolts), not the cheap drywall anchors. Hold strength is fine. Many newer condos and commercial buildings have metal studs — no problem.
Will you damage my plaster wall (older Tampa homes)?
Not if it's done right. We use carbide bits, never percussion-drill, pre-drill smaller pilot holes, and we always carry a plaster-patch kit for hairline cracks.
Can you de-mount and re-mount a TV?
Yes — common scenario when moving or remodeling. $79 to demount and patch holes, $99 to remount in a new spot. Or $149 combined if it's the same day.
Do you do commercial TV installs (offices, restaurants, hotels)?
Yes — Airbnbs, short-term rentals, restaurants, offices, gyms. Volume pricing for 5+ TVs at the same property. Email us for a quote.
What's your guarantee?
100% level guarantee — if it's off-level after we leave, we come back free. 1-year workmanship warranty on the mount and anchors.
Do you accept credit cards?
Yes — all major cards, plus Zelle, Venmo, Apple Pay, and cash. Payment after the job's done and you're happy.
Can I get a free estimate?
Yes — text or call us with: (1) photo of the wall, (2) TV size and brand, (3) your zip code. We'll quote a flat rate within 10 minutes during business hours. No obligation, no follow-up spam.
Do you do weekends?
Yes — Saturday and Sunday, 8am-8pm, same flat rates. Weekend slots fill faster — book Friday for best Saturday availability.
