TV mounting in Toronto and the GTA
Handyman on the Go mounts TVs for homes and condos in Toronto and the GTA, on drywall, plaster, brick or concrete, with fixed, tilting or full-motion mounts and tidy cable covers.
A mounted TV frees up floor space and puts the screen where it is most comfortable to watch. Getting it right means finding solid fixing points, choosing the right height and keeping cables tidy.
Tell us the TV size, the mount you have (or would like) and the wall it is going on, and add a photo of the wall if you can.

How to prepare for the visit
- Have the TV, its mount, and its screws or hardware bag ready.

- Clear the wall and the floor in front of it.
- If you want the mount over a fireplace, mention it in your request so heat and viewing angle can be planned.
Questions about TV mounting
How high should a TV be mounted?
A common guide is to put the middle of the screen roughly at eye level when you are seated, often about 100 to 110 cm from the floor. A tilting mount helps when the screen has to go higher, for example above a fireplace.
Can a TV be mounted on brick or concrete?
Yes, with masonry anchors and a drill bit made for masonry. Mention the wall type in your request so the right fixings are planned.
Can the cables be hidden?
HDMI and other low-voltage cables can be run in a paintable cable cover on the wall surface, which you can paint to match the wall.
