TV mounting in Centralia, anchored to the framing

We do TV mounting in Centralia into studs or other solid backing, after matching the mount to your screen and checking what the wall is made of.

Mount the TV where the wall can support its hardware

A TV's location, wall or ceiling surface, and mounting hardware all affect how it attaches. Overlooking the product instructions or framing can put the mount in the wrong place or leave drywall work out of the plan.

Solis installs the mount at the chosen location using its hardware instructions and known framing or backing. When support work requires opening drywall, Solis adds backing and patches the wall after mounting so the finish meets the installation.

  • TV mounted at the selected location.
  • Related drywall opening or patching carried with the work.

Walls in Centralia homes

22.7%of Centralia homes were built before 1940

Homes this old often have plaster walls, which need a different anchoring method than drywall. Tell us if the wall is plaster. National Park Service, Preservation Brief 21: Repairing Historic Flat Plaster

Choose the screen position and mount

Pick where you'll sit, then the height and direction. Fixed, tilting and full-motion mounts need different clearances, and a full-motion arm near a corner or door swing needs more room than people expect. We check the mount's instructions against the TV's size and weight.

Check the supporting wall

Drywall alone won't hold a TV mount; the bolts have to reach studs, blocking or masonry. More than one in five Centralia homes were built before 1940, when plaster on wood lath was the usual wall, and old plaster can crack or come loose around a hole. In those houses we find the framing behind the plaster before we drill.

Coordinate cable routing separately

Hiding the cord inside the wall may need electrical or low-voltage work beyond the mount, and a surface raceway is the simpler option. We check for pipes and wires before cutting any opening, and if a new route changes the wall, the patch and paint go on the quote.

The TV model and a wall photo

Send the TV and mount model, a photo of the wall where it's going, and whether you want the cables hidden.

TV Mounting questions in Centralia

Can a TV mount attach anywhere on a drywall wall?

No. It has to land on studs or existing backing. We find them before drilling, and if they don't line up with where you want the screen, we show you the nearest spot that works or a mount that spans them.

Does TV mounting include hiding cables?

It can be added. An in-wall route may need an electrician; a surface raceway usually doesn't.
