"TV installation" and "TV mounting" are the same service. A technician comes to your home, finds the studs, mounts the bracket, hangs your TV, and levels everything so it looks straight and sits safely.
Who's this for? Anyone who searched "TV installation" one minute and "TV mounting" the next — wondering if they're shopping for two different things.
This post explains what's included, the three service tiers, and how to book in two minutes.
The short answer
- Same service, different names. TV installation, TV mounting, TV hanging — all describe the same job.
- Three tiers: basic mount (cables hang free), cables covered (raceway hides wires), full in-wall (zero visible cables).
- Pricing starts from $175 and depends on the service, your TV size, and how far you are from Midtown Manhattan — you'll see your exact total before you submit your booking request.
- You provide the TV and bracket. The technician brings everything else.

TV installation and TV mounting mean the same thing
TV mounting. TV installation. TV hanging. TV wall mount installation. These are all the same job.
A technician comes to your home, finds the studs in your wall, attaches a mounting bracket, hangs your TV on it, and levels everything so it looks straight and sits securely.
The reason you see different phrases is just how people naturally talk about it. Some say "I need my TV installed," others say "I need my TV mounted." Search engines treat them as different queries, but the service you're booking is identical.
No matter what you call it, here's what matters: your TV ends up on the wall, level, and safe.
What's included in a professional TV installation
Every TV installation starts the same way — stud finding, bracket mounting, TV attachment, and leveling. Where the tiers differ is what happens with your cables.
Basic mount — from $175
Your TV goes on the wall. The cables (HDMI, power cord, streaming device wires) hang freely from the bottom of the TV down to your outlet or entertainment center. This is the fastest option and works well if you have furniture directly below the TV to hide the cables behind.
This is our TV Mounting service.
Cables covered — from $200
Same wall mount, but we also install a cable raceway — a slim plastic channel that runs from the TV down to your outlet or furniture. It covers all visible cables in a clean line and can be painted to match your wall. This is the most popular option for renters because it requires no holes beyond the mount itself.
This is our TV Mounting + Cables Covered service.
Full in-wall — from $600
The cleanest possible result. We install a power outlet directly behind the TV and route all cables inside the wall so nothing is visible at all. No cables, no raceway, no cord covers — just a TV floating on the wall. This requires cutting into drywall and is best for homeowners or anyone who wants a truly seamless look.
This is our TV Mounting + Power Outlet + Cable in Wall service.
When you might need more than just a mount
Mounting the TV is often the main event, but there are a few common add-ons customers book alongside it:
- Soundbar mounting ($70) — We mount your soundbar directly below the TV instead of sitting it on a shelf. Cleaner look, better audio positioning.
- LED strip installation ($50) — Backlight strips behind the TV for ambient lighting. Looks great at night and reduces eye strain.
- Floating stand ($200) — A wall-mounted shelf below the TV for your cable box, streaming device, or game console. No bulky furniture needed.
These are separate services you can add to your cart during booking. You pick exactly what you need.
