TV mounting in Manhattan

What this visit usually covers

• A mount on plaster or drywall needs a stud or anchors made for the weight of the set. Guessing the wall type is how sets fall.
• A fireplace or a stone wall is a different mount from a flat interior wall.
• Hiding a power cable inside the wall can be electrical work. Say if you want that, or if a cord cover is enough.
• The TV weight and the VESA pattern belong in the post if you know them. The screen size is the minimum.

Getting into the building

Manhattan mixes prewar co-ops, walk-up tenements, and high-rises. A visit often depends on a service elevator, a doorman, or a super who controls the shutoff.

Write down the elevator window or the walk-up floor, and name who can open the basement or the roof.

What to send with the request

• The wall, wide enough to see studs, trim, and what is above and below.
• The TV model, or the size in inches if the set is still in the box.
• The outlet you expect to use.

Do not ask for a mount on a hollow wall with no stud and no anchor made for the weight. That is not a safe install.

A remote consult is separate

Fixt Virtual Fix is a video consult at $39 for 20 minutes. It can be booked from anywhere. It does not dispatch an on-site fixer. On-site TV mounting work stays in New York ZIP codes 100–149.
