TV Mounting in Pat Heung

Either works. Buying your own mount is usually cheaper — check it matches your TV's VESA pattern (the four bolt holes on the back, e.g. 400x400) and its rated weight. Many installers also sell mounts on the day at a markup of roughly 20-50% over retail. If you buy your own, tell the installer the model so they bring the right fixings.

For seated viewing, the centre of the screen should sit at seated eye level — roughly 100-110 cm (40-43 inches) from the floor for a sofa. For a 65-inch TV that means the bottom edge sits around 60-70 cm up. Mount higher only if you use a tilting mount, e.g. above a fireplace or in a bedroom viewed from the bed.

A standard install on a stud or masonry wall takes 30-90 minutes. Add 1-2 hours if cables are being concealed inside the wall, and more again for above-fireplace installs or walls that need reinforcement. Book a 2-hour window to be safe.

Usually only with the landlord's written permission, since mounting leaves 4-6 anchor holes. Many tenancy agreements class it as an alteration. Alternatives that need no drilling: a TV floor stand, or a heavy-duty easel-style mount. If you do get permission, keep the mount and ask the installer to patch holes when you move out — it is a quick filler-and-paint job.

Most estates' deeds of mutual covenant and management offices restrict noisy works (including hammer drilling) to weekday daytime hours, often roughly 9am-6pm excluding Sundays and public holidays. Book your installer within those windows to avoid the job being stopped mid-way by the management office.

Every install is a concrete drill job — hammer drilling reinforced concrete takes longer and wears tools, and installers often carry rebar detectors to avoid cutting reinforcement. Cable concealment is trunking-only. The flat-rate quote reflects concrete work as the default, not an add-on.
