Wall-mounting a TV costs £60–£180 per TV in the UK, typically about £100. Screen size is the biggest driver: a small set is a one-person job, while a large screen needs two installers. Hiding the cables in the wall and a brick or stud wall add time.

What moves the price
- Screen size — a large TV mounting needs two people to lift and level it safely
- Cable hiding — chasing cables into the wall and making good costs far more than a surface trunking run
- Wall construction — solid brick, plasterboard on studs and old lath and plaster each need different fixings
- Bracket type — a full-motion bracket takes longer to fit and level than a flat fixed one
- Above a fireplace — mounting over a chimney breast means checking the flue and working at height
- London and the South East — TV mounting costs most in the capital, where call-out rates are highest
Home repair prices in the UK are up 6% over five years (ONS Consumer Price Inflation, Services for maintenance and repair, to 2026 August). Five years ago a typical tv mounting would have cost about £95 — an estimate from today's guide price and that index, not a recorded price. Source: ONS MM23 D7DO →

How to pay less
- Buy the right TV bracket yourself and have it ready, as installers charge extra to supply one
- Accept a surface cable cover instead of chasing the TV cables into the wall
- Book TV mounting alongside shelves or pictures so the handyman's minimum hour covers more work
Before you book
- Check the VESA pattern and weight of your TV against the bracket before the mounting visit
- Decide the screen height by sitting where you watch and noting your eye level
- If a new socket is wanted behind the TV, that is electrical work for a registered electrician
- Mention a chimney breast or a stud wall when booking, as the installer may bring different fixings
TV Mounting cost: questions people ask
£60–£180 per TV, typically about £100. A small set on a fixed bracket outside London is cheapest; a big screen with hidden cables costs the most.
Most installs take between forty-five minutes and two hours. Hiding cables inside the wall adds the most time.
Often, yes, but the installer should check the heat rising from a fire or stove and the strength of the chimney breast first. Many manufacturers advise against mounting over a lit fireplace.
Only if you want no visible leads. Adding a socket is electrical work, which should be done by a registered electrician, often on the same day as the mount.
The bracket, new sockets, aerial work and soundbar fitting are usually charged separately.
