    Technicians are very knowledgeable and took me through every step of the way, they explained every hole they made and also took me through the electrical process so I could make a conscious decision on whether I wanted to proceed with the in wall electrical setup or if it wasn't a good idea to do so and why. These Guys are very dependable and I truly recommend NYC TV GUYS, ALSO VERY REASONABLE PRICING 👌

Your technician inspects the wall structure, locates studs, and plans the cable route and new outlet placement.

3

New Power Outlet Installed

A new electrical outlet is installed directly behind where the TV will hang, so the power cord is completely hidden.

FAQ

Common Questions About Hiding Wires for TV: In-Wall Power Outlet & Cables

Yes — an electrician does the electrical part, and the new outlet is installed to meet local electrical codes. This is one of those jobs where hiring a professional installer really matters — electrical work done wrong is a safety risk. We're fully insured — $2M general liability and a separate $5M umbrella policy. Visit our FAQ page for more details on our insurance.

Yes — this service includes installing a brand-new power outlet directly behind the TV so there are zero visible cables. The power cord plugs in right behind the TV.

Your existing outlet stays where it is. We add a new outlet behind the TV and route all cables through the wall between the two points, so nothing is visible.

Yes — any openings we make for cable routing are covered with a brush plate, so they look like a finished outlet rather than an open hole. The work area is left clean and everything looks professional.

In-wall cable routing works on most standard drywall. For brick, concrete, or certain pre-war plaster walls, in-wall isn't possible — we'd recommend a standard TV mounting (from $175) instead. Send us a photo of your wall and we'll confirm the best approach.

Our power bridge service (from $349) routes cables through the wall using a two-plate kit — no new outlet needed, removable if you move, but drywall only. This in-wall service (from $599) installs a brand-new power outlet behind the TV and runs all cables inside the wall — fully permanent and fully code-compliant. Choose in-wall if you own your place and want the cleanest possible result.

Yes — add soundbar mounting (from $69) or LED backlighting (from $50) to your booking. Both are installed in the same visit. Add them in the cart when you book online.

We recommend at least 42 inches from the floor to the TV center for standard seating, and 48–60 inches for bedrooms. Use our free TV mounting height calculator to get the exact measurement for your TV size and viewing distance.

This service (from $599) covers TV mounting, a brand-new power outlet installed behind the TV, and the labor to pass your cables through the wall — HDMI, power, and any other connections. You provide the TV, mount bracket, and cables. Check our recommendations for the right mount, TV, and cables for your install. Learn how this compares to other options in our TV installation vs. mounting guide.

In-wall adds a permanent new outlet behind the TV, so it suits owners. If you rent, a power bridge (from $349) is removable — the plates come out and the cutouts are covered with a brush plate — and a cable cover (from $199) needs no holes at all.
