Chicago & North / Northwest Suburbs
TV MOUNTING
NEAR YOU
You searched for someone nearby, so here's the honest answer: we're a Chicago TV mounting outfit, our price depends on the size of your TV and not on where you live — $100 up to 55″, $125 for 56″–74″, $150 for 75″ and up — and there's no travel fee for being on the far side of our area. Every install comes with a lifetime warranty. Below is exactly where we go and what happens when you call.
“Near me” usually means “will they actually come out?”
When people search for a TV installer near them, the worry underneath it is normally one of two things: that nobody will travel to their address, or that being further out will quietly cost more. Both are fair worries. Plenty of handymen quote a price on the phone and then add a trip charge once they see the address.
We don't do that. TV mounting is $100 for TVs up to 55″, $125 for 56″–74″ and $150 for 75″ and up, with a lifetime warranty on every install — the same anywhere inside our service area. A one-bedroom in Rogers Park and a house in Northbrook pay the same for the same TV. If you're outside the area, we'll tell you on the phone instead of padding the quote.
Every price is published before we arrive, and nothing gets added once we're in your home. For a 75″ or bigger TV, lend a hand with the lift and there's no extra charge, or we'll bring a second installer for +$75 per visit.
Where we actually go
Rather than claiming “all of Chicagoland” like everyone else, here's the real boundary:
In the city
Everything from roughly Cermak Road north — the Loop, West Loop, River North, Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Logan Square, Wicker Park, Uptown, Andersonville, Rogers Park, Portage Park, Jefferson Park, Norwood Park and out to O'Hare.
North suburbs
Evanston, Skokie, Wilmette, Kenilworth, Winnetka, Glencoe, Northbrook, Northfield, Glenview, Morton Grove, Niles, Lincolnwood, Golf and Park Ridge — up to about Lake Cook Road.
West & northwest
Des Plaines, Rosemont, Schiller Park, Norridge, Harwood Heights, Elmwood Park, Oak Park, Berwyn, Cicero, Melrose Park, Elmhurst, Addison, Itasca, Elk Grove Village, Mount Prospect, Arlington Heights, Palatine and Schaumburg.
Not on the list but close to the edge? Call and ask. We'd rather give you a straight yes or no than have you guess.
What happens when you call
You call or text (630) 592-2982. A person answers — not a form that emails you back tomorrow.
We ask three things: roughly what size the TV is, what the wall is made of, and whether you already have a mount. That's enough to tell you the exact price before we arrive.
You get a time. Same day is often possible — it depends on what's already booked, and we'll tell you honestly rather than promising and rescheduling.
We turn up, mount it level, tidy the cables, take the box and the packaging away, and you pay the price for your TV's size plus any options you chose — nothing added on the day.
Why the wall matters more than the TV
Almost every “near me” search ends with someone worrying about the size of their television. Size does matter a little — bigger TVs take more care to lift and level, so we price in three simple size steps, published up front. But what actually decides how a mount goes in is what's behind the drywall.
Chicago housing stock makes this genuinely varied. A 1920s two-flat on the Northwest Side is often plaster over lath, which hides the studs from a magnet and punishes guesswork. Downtown high-rises and a lot of newer construction use metal studs, which need different anchors and won't hold a lag bolt the way wood does. Older brick and concrete need masonry anchors and a hammer drill, not a driver.
This is the part that separates a mount that's solid in ten years from one that sags, and it's why we can put a lifetime warranty on every install. It's also why we ask about the wall on the phone. The wall still doesn't change the price, except tile (+$50 per TV).
Building or HOA asking for insurance?
Downtown condo towers and a lot of managed buildings won't let a contractor upstairs without a certificate of insurance on file, usually naming the association or management company. It catches people out constantly, because you only find out when the front desk turns the installer away.
We're insured with general liability coverage, and we'll send a certificate of insurance on request, made out to you, your landlord or your building. If your building or HOA needs one, mention it when you book.
Ask for it as early as you can rather than on the morning. Management companies often take a few days to review and approve the paperwork, and a certificate that turns up an hour before the appointment is the usual reason a job gets pushed to next week.
Common questions
How much does TV mounting cost?
TV mounting is $100 for TVs up to 55″, $125 for 56″–74″ and $150 for 75″ and up, with a lifetime warranty on every install.
Do you charge more if I'm further away?
No. The price for your TV is the same whether you're in the South Loop or up in Glencoe. No travel fee, no fuel surcharge.
Can you come today?
Often, yes. It depends what's already on the calendar — call and we'll tell you what's actually open rather than taking the booking and sorting it out later.
Does the price include the mount itself?
That's the installation. If you already own a mount, the install price is all you pay. If you need one, mount options are priced separately so you can see what you're getting.
What about a 75″ or bigger TV?
It's $150. If you lend a hand with the lift, there's no extra charge. If you'd rather not, we bring a second installer for +$75 per visit, one fee however many 75″+ TVs are on the appointment. TVs under 75″ never need your help.
Is there a warranty?
Yes, for life. If a TV we mounted ever comes loose, sags or goes off level, we come back and fix it free, for as long as you own the TV in the home where we installed it. Mounts we supply are covered too. It doesn't cover the TV itself, a TV someone else has moved or re-hung, or damage from pulling, climbing or accidents. Full warranty terms.
What if my wall turns out to be difficult?
Standard walls — wood stud, metal stud, plaster, brick — are all included in the price. Tile is the one exception, at +$50 per TV. If a job genuinely needs more, like cutting a wall for in-wall cable concealment or an outlet behind the TV, that's a priced option you agree to before we start. Nothing gets added after the fact.
Do you take the box away?
Yes. Every install includes cleanup, and we'll take the packaging with us.
