How Much Does TV Installation Cost in Hampton Roads?

If you're looking to get a TV professionally mounted in Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, or anywhere in Hampton Roads, you're probably wondering what it'll cost. Here's a straightforward breakdown based on our experience completing thousands of installations across the region.

Quick Answer

Most residential TV installations in Hampton Roads run $150–$400, depending on the wall type, whether you want cables hidden, and how complex the setup is.

Pricing by Service Type

Basic TV Wall Mount — $150–$200

This covers mounting your TV on a standard drywall wall with a fixed or tilting bracket. Cables are routed externally using a cable cover. Best for bedrooms, offices, and simple living room setups.

Includes:

• TV mounting on drywall
• Bracket installation (customer-supplied or we can provide)
• External cable management
• Level and secure mounting with proper anchors

Standard Installation with Cable Concealment — $250–$350

The most popular option. We run your cables through the wall for a clean, wire-free look. Ideal for living rooms and spaces where aesthetics matter.

Includes:

• Everything in basic installation
• In-wall cable routing
• Power and HDMI run behind the wall
• Clean, professional finish with no visible wires

Above-Fireplace Installation — $300–$400

Fireplace mounts require special consideration for heat, viewing angle, and often masonry anchoring. We use heat-resistant materials and full-motion mounts to angle the TV downward for comfortable viewing.

Includes:

• Masonry or brick anchoring
• Heat management assessment
• Full-motion mount for optimal viewing angle
• In-wall cable concealment

Complex or Custom Installations — $400+

Multi-TV setups, outdoor installations, stone or concrete walls, ceiling mounts, or installations that require electrical work. We'll provide a custom quote after assessing your space.

What Affects the Price?

A few factors that can move the price up or down:

• Wall material — Drywall is standard. Brick, stone, and concrete require masonry anchors and specialized tools, adding $50–$100.
• Cable concealment — Running cables through the wall costs more than external cable covers, but looks significantly better.
• TV size and weight — Very large TVs (75"+) may require reinforced mounting or a two-person install.
• Height and accessibility — High mounts or difficult-to-reach locations take more time.
• Additional devices — Setting up a soundbar, Apple TV, or surround sound system adds to the scope.

Why Hire a Professional?

It's tempting to DIY a TV mount, but there are real risks:

• Finding studs — Missing a stud means your TV could fall. We use professional stud finders and verify every anchor point.
• Electrical safety — Running power through walls should be done to code. Improper electrical work is a fire hazard.
• Wall damage — One wrong hole in the wrong spot can mean costly drywall repair. We get it right the first time.
• Heavy lifting — A 65" TV weighing 50+ pounds needs to be lifted and held precisely while being secured. It's a two-person job.

We've been doing this since 1977. Our technicians have mounted thousands of TVs and know how to handle every wall type and situation you'll find in Hampton Roads homes.
