TV wall mounting in Fawkner

Fawkner is where Tradie at Door is based, so a TV installation here is close to home. Around the Bonwick Street shops, Major Road and the streets that run off Sydney Road, houses range from established brick homes to newer dwellings. We mount TVs on brick and plasterboard walls, subject to a check of the wall and the position you have picked.

Mounting on brick in an established Fawkner home

In Fawkner’s established brick homes, a screen on a masonry wall needs anchors that suit both the bracket and the weight of the TV. Before anything is drilled we confirm the brickwork is sound, mark the bracket at a comfortable viewing height from your couch, and make sure the spot is clear of anything that should not be drilled into.

Older homes (often built before about 1950) may have lath and plaster walls and newer ones plasterboard, so each house is checked on site. If the position you want cannot carry the bracket safely, we explain why and suggest another one before a single hole goes in.

Newer dwellings with plasterboard walls

The newer homes and units around Fawkner are more likely to be lined with plasterboard. On plasterboard the bracket has to pick up the framing behind the sheet, or use fixings rated for the load, so finding that framing is part of the job.

Torn between two walls? Send a photo of each. Our team can say which one better suits the screen size and the bracket you have in mind, and whether a tilting or full-motion arm will clear the furniture around it.

Power points, antenna sockets and cables

Surface cable management is available so the leads below the screen look neat. If you would rather they disappear inside the wall, that part is done by an electrician and charged separately; mention it when our team rings so the visit can be planned around it.

Before the appointment, note where the closest power point and antenna socket sit relative to the TV position. Their location makes a real difference to how tidy the finished install can look.

Booking from our Fawkner base

Fill in the form on this page with your street and the TV size. Our team will phone to talk through the wall, the bracket and where the screen should sit, and your technician determines the quote from how complex the installation is. Have these handy when they call:

If an old bracket is coming down, include photos of the holes for a quote on patching old bracket holes alongside the new mounting position.

  • TV size and model number
  • The bracket you already own, if any
  • A photo of the wall with the nearest power point in view
  • Whether the wall is brick or plasterboard, if you know

FAQs

Can you mount a TV on a brick wall in Fawkner?

Yes. We mount TVs on brick and on plasterboard, after checking that the wall and the chosen spot suit the TV and the bracket.

Can I add other small jobs to the same visit?

Yes. List any shelves, pictures or sticking doors on the form. Grouping small jobs into one Fawkner visit is usually more efficient than booking each separately.

Who sets the price?

Your technician determines the quote based on the complexity of the installation, once our team has called to go over the details with you.
