Most of Tampa is built on concrete-block construction, with a stucco or brick veneer outside and drywall over furring strips inside. Plus there's the loft scene in Ybor City and Channelside, where exposed brick is the whole aesthetic. We mount on brick, stone, CBS, and concrete every single day.

The technique matters: never mount into a brick face — bricks crack under stress, and a cracked brick around a 75lb TV is a TV on the floor. Always mount into the mortar joints — that's where the load capacity is. We pre-drill with masonry bits, install lag-shield expansion anchors, then thread 5/16" or 3/8" lag bolts. Each anchor point holds 250-400 lbs.

For solid concrete or CBS, we use Tapcon screws (concrete screws) for fixed mounts or sleeve anchors for full-motion. For natural stone (limestone, travertine, fieldstone), we use the chemical anchor method — adhesive epoxy + threaded rod — because stone is unpredictable on expansion anchors.

Why Bayshore TV Mounts

Why Tampa Bay homeowners
pick us first.

Mortar-joint precision. We hit the mortar lines, not the brick face. This means anchor placement isn't always where you'd want it visually — but our brackets have wide hole patterns, so we adapt to where the joints are.
Dust-controlled drilling. Tampa homes have light-color tile floors right where TV mounts go. We use a vacuum shroud during drilling so the brick dust gets sucked up, not blown across your floor.
Right tools for the wall. SDS hammer drill with carbide bits for brick/concrete. Diamond core bits for natural stone. Tapcon driver for CBS. We don't show up with a Black & Decker drill.
Anchor strength rated. Every anchor we install carries minimum 250 lbs pull-out resistance. We always use 4+ anchor points for a 75lb TV — load capacity 1,000+ lbs total. Massive overspec by design.
Wire workarounds for masonry. You can't run wires inside a solid brick wall. We use paint-matched surface raceways (Wiremold, Legrand), or route along an adjacent drywall section. Either way: cables nearly invisible.

Our Process

How we work.

Wall identification

First we tap the wall — solid masonry sounds different from veneer-over-stud. This determines anchoring strategy. (Sometimes a "brick wall" is actually a brick veneer over a wood stud cavity — we mount into the studs in that case.)

Mark mortar joints

Locate horizontal and vertical mortar lines, mark anchor positions to align with bracket holes. We always pick joints — never face.

Drill & anchor

SDS hammer drill, masonry bit one size smaller than the lag-shield. Vacuum shroud captures dust. Sleeve anchors for solid concrete, lag-shields for brick.

Bracket & load test

Mount the bracket, hand-test 50lb load before we hang the TV. If anchors feel off, we re-drill in better joints. We've never had a fail.

Cable solution

Surface raceway painted to match, or run along adjacent surface, or drill through to back-side wall cavity if accessible.

FAQ

Quick answers.

Can you mount a TV on stucco-over-block?

Yes — this is most of Tampa's exterior wall construction. We drill through the stucco and into the concrete block, then use sleeve anchors. Hold strength is excellent.

Will drilling crack my brick?

Not if it's done right. We drill into mortar (which is sacrificial and easily patched), not the brick itself. We use the right size masonry bit and a hammer-drill SDS chuck — not a regular drill.

How do you hide wires on a brick wall?

Three options: (1) paint-matched surface raceway — looks like part of the wall from 4ft away, our default; (2) run cables to an adjacent drywall section and conceal in-wall there; (3) drill through the brick into the wall cavity behind. Option 1 is fastest and 90% of customers pick it.

Can the brick anchors really hold an 85-inch TV?

Yes, easily. A standard lag-shield anchor in mortar holds 250-400 lbs of pull-out. We use 4-6 anchors per mount. An 85" TV weighs ~80 lbs. We're at 1,500+ lbs of safety capacity.

How much does brick TV mounting cost in Tampa?

$249 flat-rate for brick, stone, or concrete block. Includes drilling, anchors, mounting, and a paint-matched surface raceway for cable concealment. Above-fireplace brick installs are also $249.
