TV Mounting & Installation in Cincinnati

A TV on the wall with no visible wires, level, at the right height, with the soundbar or surround sound set up and one remote that runs it. That is the whole job, and it is surprisingly hard to get from a big-box install crew. Phantom Sound has been mounting displays in Cincinnati homes since 1988 — over fireplaces, on stone and brick, in bedrooms and on covered porches — with in-wall cable concealment, outlet relocation, and a real calibration so the picture looks the way it did in the showroom.

Bought the Black Friday TV? Now Install It Right.

A great deal on a 75-inch display is a bad deal if it ends up crooked, three feet too high, with a power strip dangling under it. Our most common November job is fixing exactly that.

What a Professional Install Includes

Mount, Conceal, Connect, Calibrate

We start with placement: the right height for the seating, the right mount for the wall (fixed, tilting, or full-motion), and the structure behind the drywall, stone, or brick. Then the wiring: power and HDMI concealed inside the wall to a new outlet behind the display, so nothing shows. Then the sources — cable box, Apple TV, gaming console, soundbar, or a full surround system — connected and hidden in a cabinet or closet. Finally we calibrate the picture, set up the streaming apps, and program one remote. Most installs are done in two to three hours.

01

Standard Wall Mounts

Fixed or tilting mounts on drywall with concealed cabling and a new recessed outlet. Starting around $275 for a basic mount; most full installs with concealment run $600–$1,200.

02

Fireplace, Stone & Brick

Over-fireplace mounts with pull-down or full-motion arms for viewing height, and drilling into stone, brick, and tile done cleanly.

03

Soundbars & Surround Sound

Soundbar mounting and setup, or in-wall and in-ceiling surround for a family room that sounds as good as it looks.

04

Outdoor & Porch TVs

Weatherproof displays for covered porches and patios, paired with outdoor audio and controlled from inside.

05

Multi-Room & Whole-Home Video

Several TVs sharing sources from one equipment closet, with one remote per room — the foundation of a smart home.

The TV is the easy part. The wall, the wires, and the remote are the job.

Before We Arrive

Four Things We Will Ask About

✓

What is behind the wall

Studs, plaster, stone, a fireplace flue, or an exterior wall each change the mount and the wiring plan.

✓

Where the seating is

Viewing height and distance decide mount height and whether a tilt or full-motion arm makes sense.

✓

What plugs into it

Cable box, streaming device, console, soundbar — we plan the concealment and the outlet for everything, including the next device.

✓

Whether you want one remote

A programmed universal or Control4 remote runs the display, sound, and sources together — worth it in any room with more than a soundbar.

TV Mounting Questions

TV Installation FAQs

How much does TV mounting cost in Cincinnati?

Starting around $275 for a basic mount on a standard wall. Most full installs — including in-wall cable concealment, outlet relocation, and soundbar setup — fall between $600 and $1,200. Heavy or oversized TVs, fireplace mounts, stone or brick walls, and motorized mounts increase the price. See our pricing page.

Do you supply the mount?

Yes. We bring the right mount for the display and the wall, or install one you have already purchased if it is suitable.

Can you hide the wires in a finished wall?

Yes. In-wall concealment with a new outlet behind the display is standard on most of our installs. Exterior and fireplace walls sometimes need an alternate route, which we plan on site.

Which brands do you work with?

All major brands including Sony, Samsung, and LG. We also sell and install displays if you would rather we handle the whole thing.

Can you mount a TV above a fireplace?

Yes, with attention to heat and viewing angle. A pull-down or full-motion mount brings the screen to eye level for movie night.
