How these prices compare

Airtasker publishes a Brisbane TV mounting median of $175 with a typical range of $149 to $245. Install Express publishes $299 for a single install. Most other Brisbane installers publish nothing at all and price the job on the phone.

We publish the table above because a mount on a known wall is a knowable job. The honest exceptions - the walls and rooms that genuinely take longer - are listed as add-ons with their real ranges, not hidden inside a “from” price you only discover on the day.

What the from-price includes: stud location and set-out, the bracket fixed across at least two studs, the screen hung, levelled and security-locked, every source tested in front of you, and the room left clean. Third-party comparison figures verified 20 August 2026. Antenna and Starlink prices are on the full rate card.

The part most installers skip

Brisbane walls are not one wall

The single most common serious mounting mistake in Brisbane is treating every wall like an American drywall tutorial. These are the walls this city is actually built from, and what each one demands.

Gyprock on timber stud

The standard case in most post-1970s homes. The plasterboard carries nothing: the bracket is coach-screwed into the studs behind it, at 450 or 600 mm centres, spanning at least two. We locate studs with a stud finder and confirm with a fixings test before the first hole.

Gyprock on steel stud

Common in newer townhouses and apartments. Steel studs are thin-walled and a coach screw will not hold the way it does in timber, so larger screens get a spanning plate that distributes the load across multiple studs. Full-motion arms need particular care here.

Brick veneer vs double brick

They look identical from inside and they are opposite jobs. Brick veneer is a decorative brick skin over a timber or steel frame - you fix to the frame, not the brick. Double brick is structural masonry that takes sleeve anchors into the brick face, never the mortar joints. Getting this wrong is how TVs end up on the floor.

Hebel and AAC panel

Aerated concrete crushes under standard anchors. It needs AAC-specific fixings, more of them, and torque discipline. Common in newer estates and townhouse party walls. This is why it carries a surcharge - it takes longer to do properly.

Queenslander VJ boards

Tongue-and-groove boards 12 to 19 mm thick, often with no cavity behind them. A cantilever arm bolted to boards alone will visibly bow them over time. We spread the load across the studs behind the boards, and we treat original VJ with the respect a heritage wall deserves.

Poured concrete and besser block

Apartment walls hold anything - the challenge is the cable, because there is no cavity to hide it in. We use masonry anchors rated for the load, fix into solid webs on besser (never the hollow cores), and run leads in a slim painted duct where in-wall routing is impossible.

Not sure what your wall is? Send us a photo and tell us the age of the house - between the two we can usually identify it, and price the job, without a site visit.

Our work

The difference is what you cannot see

Same room, same TV, same power point. The work is in the set-out and the cable run.

A television on a low console with power and antenna leads visible behind it Before

Before

Screen on a console, leads hanging behind it, antenna lead run across the floor from the wrong wall. Nothing unsafe - just untidy, and the screen sits too low for the room.

The same room with the television mounted level on the wall and no visible cables After

After

Bracket bolted across two studs, screen centred and levelled to the room, soundbar on the same centreline, and both leads dropped inside the wall to a brush plate beside the power point.

How a mounting job runs

Measured twice, drilled once

  1. Price on the phone

    Suburb, screen size, wall type and where you want it. A photo answers most questions. You get a fixed price, not an estimate.

  2. Set out and check

    Height agreed with you seated where you actually watch. Studs located, services scanned, the bracket position marked and confirmed before drilling.

  3. Mount and conceal

    Fixings matched to the wall, screen hung and levelled, and leads dropped in-wall between brush plates where the cavity allows it.

  4. Test and tidy

    Every source working in front of you, the remote in your hand, dust vacuumed, packaging gone. The old TV stand goes wherever you want it.

TV mounting questions

Asked every week, answered straight

General questions about cables, renting, insurance and our warranty are answered on the main FAQ page. These are the mounting-specific ones.

What height should a TV be mounted?

For a seated living room, the centre of the screen should sit at seated eye level - typically 1,000 to 1,100 mm from the floor to screen centre for a standard sofa. Higher than that and you watch with your neck tilted back all evening.

The common exception is a bedroom, where you watch from a reclined position and the screen goes higher with a tilting bracket. We set the final height with you sitting where you actually watch, with the screen held in position, before anything is drilled. Marks on a wall are cheap; holes are not.

Can you mount a TV above a fireplace?

Usually, with two caveats. First, height: above a mantel the screen ends up well over eye level, so it needs a tilting or pull-down bracket to bring the picture back to the viewer. Second, heat: we check the wall temperature above the fireplace when it is running, because sustained heat above the manufacturer’s rating shortens a panel’s life.

If the chimney breast is masonry the fixing is straightforward. If it is a plasterboard chase hiding a flue, we find the framing first - a flue is not something to drill into on faith.

There are no studs where I want the TV. What then?

It happens constantly - the perfect spot lands between studs. Three honest options: a wider bracket or spanning plate that reaches the studs either side; a plywood mounting board fixed to the studs and painted to the wall, which the bracket then bolts through anywhere; or moving the position 50 to 100 mm, which is often invisible in the room but lands on framing.

What we will not do is hang a screen on hollow-wall anchors in plasterboard alone. Some installers will. It holds until the day it does not.

What is included in the from-$150 price?

The full job for a screen up to 43 inches on a gyprock stud wall: set-out at your preferred height, stud location, the bracket fixed across at least two studs, the screen hung, levelled and locked, sources tested in front of you, and the room cleaned up. Bracket supply, cable concealment and harder wall types are the add-ons priced in the table above - quoted before we start, not discovered on the day.

Can you move a TV that is already mounted?

Yes - remounting to another wall or another home is routine, and it includes dealing with the wall you leave behind: bracket off, holes patched ready for paint. If you are moving house, we can take the screen down at the old address and remount it at the new one, with the bracket checked and re-used where it is still rated for the job.

Will a mounted TV come off the wall?

Not if the fixing matches the wall - which is the entire trade. A bracket rated for the screen, fixed across two studs or into structural masonry, holds several times the screen’s weight. The failures you hear about are hollow-wall anchors in plasterboard, single-stud fixings loaded with a full-motion arm, or anchors in mortar joints.

Our fixings and labour carry a 5-year workmanship warranty. If a mount we installed moves, we come back and make it right at no charge.

Do you mount TVs in apartments?

All the time. Apartment walls are usually poured concrete or steel stud, both of which we handle daily - concrete holds anything, but has no cavity, so cable concealment is a neat painted duct rather than an in-wall drop. Many buildings require body corporate notice for fixings into structural walls and some need contractor induction; we deal with both and can put the fixing method in writing for your building manager.

How fast can you come out?

Same-week is normal across metro Brisbane, and we can often fit a standard mount into a gap within a day or two - tell us if it is urgent and we will be straight with you about the next real slot rather than overpromising. Weekend slots exist and are booked fastest; mid-week mornings are the easiest to get.
