To mount, move outlets up behind TV & install soundbar (hiding cables) $500.

Default TV mounts plus labor

Mounts come in two main varieties (flat and telescoping/swivel). They typically run anywhere from $75 to $150.

Labor typically takes 2+ hours. A lot more if you need power/electrical done or running wires "invisible" through an interior wall..

Why pay a company. Don’t any neighbors or friends know how to mount a TV?

Well just my experience, when we had a designer home on Morning Glory we hung a 50” in our bedroom & to our displeasure we didn’t have any wood studs in wall they were all metal studs & we had to buy metal expansion dolly’s to put in metal studs, yes you can do it yourself but was a little more work!

Do it yourself, very easy to do. You will need a hammer drill, drill bit, level, tapcon screws for the weight of your tv, and a nice tv mount.
That’s the easy part. What’s harder is:
* the mounting location (position on the wall), you want to mount it so you aren’t straining to look at it. For example, many people put a tv above a fireplace so you are straining your neck everytime you watch tv.

* hiding the wires. For a professional looking install, you don’t want to see any wires running down the wall. I see installations that cost the homeowner hundreds of $$$ and you see many wires in the open which looks tacky. There are ways to hide the wires and the ways I’ve done this are:
* build a false wall an inch out from the wall that goes as low as the cabinet below the tv that holds your gear like dvd player, PlayStation or Wii, etc.
* a normal drywall wall, punch a hole behind the tv and then at the bottom of the wall, punch another hole so the wires will be placed in this channel.
* you can buy a piece of square channel conduit and place it in the center and place all your wires in this square conduit.

Even easier and the tv gets to be the right height for viewing and that’s to get a 2’ tall video cabinet where you can put your tv on and put all your tv accessories in. I’ve done this for decades in my living rooms and it works great. I place my 65” curved tv on this 7’ wide, 2’ tall cabinet with 4 ventilated doors to gain access to your stereo equipment, cd, dvd players, Wii, Apple TV box, and more.
