TV installation is a tricky job, whether you do it for the first time or after you replace your existing TV.
It is never easy to get familiar with different TV styles and sizes. Moreover, choosing a department store’s services to mount your TV can be inconvenient and expensive.
However, you can use Handy services that might be best suited for you and help you deal with an expert that won’t break your bank.
Let’s take a look at how much Handy will charge you to mount your TV.
Quick Summary
This guide has all the necessary information about how much Handy will charge you to mount your TV.
How much will Handy charge you to mount your TV?
Hiring an expert to mount your TV is easy and convenient but TV mounting comes with costs that depend on the TV size, type of wall mount, and type of wall you want to mount your TV on.
To get to further details about the prices and options, let’s get into this price guide.
TV size
The TV size is the basic information you have to provide Handy services to get the idea of the price.
- If your TV is up to 32” then it will cost you approximately $83.75.
- If your TV is 33”- 44” then an additional $41.88 is applied on the basic rate.
- If your TV is 45” or larger than an additional $83.75 is applied on the basic rate.
If your TV is larger than 45”, a single professional might need extra help. However, if you can help lift your TV with them, then there are no additional charges. In case this is not possible then one extra professional might cost you an additional $60.
Current TV
Either you want to install a new TV or you want to replace it, the current TV needs to be taken down from the wall first. This means that removing your current TV will require expert help as well.
Handy services ensure the safe removal of your current TV and charge approximately $62.81 for it, which in our opinion, is very affordable in comparison to other services.
Wall Mount for your TV
If you already have a TV mount of your choice there are no additional charges, which means that only the basic rate is charged.
However, if you need a mount then Handy services can provide one. In this case, the charges may vary depending on the type of mount.
- For a fixed wall mount, the price is up to \$30.
- For a tilting wall mount, the price is up to \$40.
- For a full-motion wall mount, the price is up to $50.
Wall type
If your wall type is drywall, plaster, or wood then the basic rate is applied to wall mount your TV but if it is brick or concrete then an additional $35 is included.
Dressing Cords
Handy services also give the option of handling the cords for your TV, if you want them to be bundled up and covered then an additional $30 is charged.
They can also be left as it is but this obviously will not look pleasing to the eye.
Connecting External Devices
If there are no external devices to be connected then you are done. However, if there are one or more than one external devices that need to be connected with your wall mount then it costs up to $15.
Other alternatives
You can always mount your TV but it can be challenging. This is why we recommend Handy services to you.
If after all the price calculations, you are not satisfied with Handy charges then Handy itself gives you the option of calculating prices from other local companies.
This will allow you to compare the prices yourself and clear your doubts when considering Handy services.
