TV Mounting up to 32"
A 32-inch panel is light enough that people talk themselves into drywall anchors. It's still ten pounds hanging over a nightstand. I mount into framing, or use the right anchor properly when there genuinely isn't one where you need it.
No deposit. Pay when it's done. Or call John on (619) 928-6500.
Estimate
6 questions. Then a number.
Screen size, wall, wires. The price appears on the last screen.
- You get the number whether you leave your details or not. No email wall.
- The mount itself adds nothing — you buy it, I fit it, and you keep a part you can take with you.
- It's an estimate. A photo of the wall is what makes it firm.
What's included
- Stud finding and marking, with the height confirmed with you before I drill
- Bracket mounted into framing, or into a rated toggle where framing isn't available
- TV hung, levelled, and tilt set the way you want it
- Cables routed and tucked behind the set
- Tested before I leave — picture on, sound working
- Packaging broken down and hauled out
What I'll need from you
- The TV and a mount rated for its size
- Roughly where you want it — I'll help with exact height
- An outlet within reach of the mounted position
- How long it takes
- About 45 minutes.

Why is a small TV not cheaper than the 33"–60" job?
Small TVs go in awkward places — over a counter, into a corner, above a headboard. The panel is lighter but the position is fiddlier, and that's where the time goes.
Can you mount it under a cabinet?
Often yes, with the right articulating mount. Send me a photo of the space and I'll tell you what to buy.

Often booked at the same visit
Adding a second job to the same trip is the cheapest way to buy my time — the drive only gets paid for once.
Small TV installation in San Diego, up to 32 inches
Small TV installation in San Diego is priced by the awkwardness of the position rather than the weight of the panel, and the positions are consistently awkward. These go above a kitchen counter, into a bedroom corner, over a headboard, or under a cabinet — spots where the framing is interrupted by plumbing, ducting or a cabinet run, and where there is often no stud anywhere near where the bracket needs to land.
That is exactly where drywall anchors alone start looking tempting and where they should not be trusted. Ten pounds over a bed is still ten pounds over a bed. Where there is framing I mount into it; where there genuinely is not, I use a rated toggle and tell you the actual limit rather than leaving you to guess. In condo buildings around Mission Valley and downtown, interior partitions are sometimes steel stud, which needs different hardware again.
Send a photo of the spot. I'll confirm $99.
If the photo shows something that changes the price, you'll know before I drive out — not after.
