TV Mounting and Shelving around Zephyrhills
Around here a lot of homes have concrete block exterior walls, and newer homes in places like Wesley Chapel can have metal studs on some interior walls. Each one needs a different anchor, which is why a TV that looked fine on day one can sag a year later. Wayne brings the right hardware for the wall you have.
He has also built out full entertainment walls with shelving and cabinets. If you want more than a bracket and a TV, ask.

The details
Everything you would want to know about tv mounting and shelving before you call. Tap to open.
What changes the price
Every job is priced before work starts. These make one tv mounting and shelving job bigger or smaller than another.
Wall type
Wood studs are the quickest. Block walls and metal studs take different anchors and more care.
Hiding cords
A cord cover is quick. Running the cords inside the wall takes longer and depends on what is in that wall.
Mount style
A fixed mount is simple. A full-motion arm that swings out needs solid anchoring into framing.
Extras
Soundbars, shelves under the TV and hanging more pictures in the same trip all add a little time.
Materials, and why
Mounts go into wood studs with lag bolts, into metal studs with toggle anchors made for that weight, and into block with sleeve or concrete anchors. Plastic drywall anchors are not used for TVs, period.
For hiding cords inside the wall, Wayne uses an in-wall power and cable kit that is designed for it, so you are not running a regular extension cord through the wall, which is not safe or allowed.
Before you call
- Write down the TV size and model, or snap a photo of the label on the back.
- Decide where you will sit. The center of the screen should land close to eye level from there.
- Check if there is an outlet near where you want the TV. If not, a cord kit or an electrician may be needed.
- Clear the area in front of the wall so the work goes fast.
What a visit includes
- Finding studs or block and checking for wires
- Mounting and leveling
- Cord cover or in-wall cord kit
- Hanging small items while he is there
Questions about tv mounting and shelving
Can you mount a TV over a fireplace?
Often, yes. It depends on what is behind the wall and how high it ends up. Send a photo of the wall and he will tell you honestly if it is a good idea.
Do I need to buy the mount?
You can, or Wayne can tell you exactly which one to get for your TV and wall.
Can you add an outlet behind the TV?
Adding a new outlet is electrical work and needs a licensed electrician. Wayne can use a cord kit that runs your existing power safely instead.
