PROFESSIONAL TV MOUNTING
DC, MD & VA

From concrete condo walls to fireplace mantels, 5 Star Pros mounts TVs safely and cleanly across the DMV. We find the studs, set the correct height, conceal every wire, and leave no exposed cables or crooked brackets behind.

PROFESSIONAL TV MOUNTING
IN THE DMV AREA

TV mounting sounds simple until you're staring at a concrete wall in a Capitol Hill rowhouse, or trying to figure out whether those studs are actually where the stud finder says they are in a 1970s construction condo in Bethesda. The DMV has one of the most diverse mixes of wall construction in the country — from poured concrete in modern high-rises to plaster over wood lath in 100-year-old DC row homes, to standard drywall over steel studs in newer townhouses. Getting a TV anchor wrong means a falling TV, a damaged wall, and potentially a very bad day. Professional mounting is worth it.

When 5 Star Pros mounts a TV, we start by identifying exactly what's in your wall. We use electronic stud finders, magnetic stud detection, and physical probing where needed to locate real structural anchor points before drilling a single hole. The mount is always secured into studs or masonry anchors rated well above your TV's weight. We set the height at the correct ergonomic viewing angle for your seating position — not guessed, but measured. And every cable — power, HDMI, streaming box wires — is routed in-wall or through a clean surface raceway so the installation looks like it belongs in the room.

We mount TVs every week across the DMV — in apartments in Arlington and Alexandria, condos in Adams Morgan and Columbia Heights, single-family homes in Rockville and Silver Spring, and rental properties throughout Prince George's County. Whether it's a 40-inch bedroom TV or an 85-inch living room centerpiece above a fireplace, we have the tools and experience to do it right the first time.

How It Works

OUR PROCESS

01
Measure & Plan

We identify the ideal viewing height based on your seating position, locate the wall construction type, and confirm the mounting approach — stud mount, masonry anchor, or toggle bolts — before touching the wall.

02
Find Studs & Anchors

We use electronic stud finders and physical verification to locate real structural points. For concrete and masonry walls, we mark and drill anchor positions with the correct masonry bit and hammer drill.

03
Mount Bracket & Hang TV

The bracket is mounted securely and checked for level before the TV goes on. We attach the TV, verify the connection is secure, and adjust the mount angle for the correct viewing position.

04
Final Walkthrough

We only wrap up when you're 100% satisfied with every detail. All cables are routed, the TV is powered on and tested, and the space is cleaned before we leave.

Common Questions

TV MOUNTING FAQ

Can you mount a TV on concrete or brick walls?+
Yes, and this is one of the most common requests we get from DC condo and rowhouse owners. Concrete and brick require masonry anchors and hammer drills — tools and technique that most people don't have at home. We mount on concrete, brick, and CMU block regularly and ensure every mount is rated for your TV's weight plus a generous safety margin. We'll also use surface raceways for wire concealment since in-wall routing isn't possible on solid masonry.
Do you hide the wires?+
Yes. Wire concealment is included in every mount we do. We use in-wall cable management kits for drywall surfaces — this involves making small cuts at the top and bottom of the wall run, fishing cables through, and patching the openings cleanly. For concrete or brick walls where in-wall routing isn't possible, we use surface-mounted raceways that are color-matched and neat. Your setup will look clean and professional when we're done.
What size TV can you mount?+
We mount TVs from 32 inches up to 100+ inches. The mount hardware is selected based on your TV's VESA pattern and weight. For very large TVs (75 inches and above), we always anchor into studs or masonry — never drywall anchors alone — for a safe, permanent installation that won't shift or flex over time.
Do I need to provide the TV mount?+
You can, or we can supply it. If you already have a mount, we'll verify it's appropriate for your TV's VESA pattern, weight, and wall type before installation. If you need one, we carry fixed, tilting, and full-motion articulating mounts in all common VESA sizes. The mount cost is separate from the labor and will be clearly itemized in your quote so you know exactly what you're paying for.
