TV wall mounting in Bury St Edmunds

Older homes around Northgate Street, Guildhall Street and the streets near the cathedral often have lime plaster over soft brick, and sometimes a chimney breast that's the obvious place for the TV. We drill carefully into sound brick, use resin anchors where the wall is crumbly, and check the heat above any working fire or stove. Where chasing cables into the wall isn't appropriate, we use slim trunking painted to match.

• Solid brick in older homes

  The challenge

  Soft Victorian and Edwardian bricks and lime mortar crumble if they're drilled carelessly.

  How we do it

  Careful drilling into sound brick, with resin or long anchors where the wall needs them.

• Timber-frame new builds

  The challenge

  Thin plasterboard over a timber frame, with pipes and cables running through the voids.

  How we do it

  We scan for services, fix to the frame and run cables inside the cavity to a plate behind the TV.

• 75 and 85 inch screens

  The challenge

  Big TVs weigh 30 kg or more and are easy to damage while lifting them onto a bracket.

  How we do it

  Two-person fitting, a heavy-duty bracket and fixings rated for well over the weight.

• Bedrooms and kitchens

  The challenge

  Watching from bed or the worktop needs a different height and angle from the lounge.

  How we do it

  Height and tilt set for how you watch in that room, often on a swing arm.

Bury's pubs, restaurants and offices often need screens mounted high, out of reach, or several screens showing the same picture. We fit secure commercial brackets and run the cabling neatly, so the installation looks right in a busy, public space.
