TV mounting Sunninghill

Standard mounting runs R450 to R950, large TVs and full-motion brackets R850 to R1,500, with brackets themselves R250 to R1,200 if supplied. Surface cable trunking adds R150 to R450; in-wall concealment and new plug points are quoted separately.

Centre of the screen at seated eye level — roughly 100 to 110cm from the floor for a typical couch, higher only for standing-view rooms. The mounted-too-high TV is the most common regret in home setups; measuring from your actual seating beats any generic rule.

Yes — by fixing into the studs behind the board or using engineered hollow-wall anchors rated well above the TV’s weight. What fails is ordinary plastic plugs in plasterboard. Full-motion arms on drywall need particular care because the extended arm multiplies the load. Vetted pros working in and around Sunninghill quote jobs like this every week, so sharing photos upfront gets you an accurate price fast.

Two routes: surface trunking (quick, paintable, renter-friendly) or in-wall concealment, which chases cables into the wall for a completely clean look. In-wall routing that includes a new plug point behind the TV crosses into electrical installation work — that part is done by a registered electrician.

Fixed sits flattest and cheapest for a straight-on couch view; tilt helps when the TV must sit higher than ideal; full-motion suits corner placements and rooms watched from multiple angles. Bigger and heavier brackets demand stronger fixing — another reason bracket choice belongs in the booking conversation.
