What changes the cost
- TV size & weight — big screens need heavier brackets and two installers.
- Wall type — drywall‑into‑studs is standard; stucco, brick and stone need masonry anchors and more time.
- Cable concealment — visible‑tidy is included; running wires inside the wall costs more.
- Over a fireplace — height, heat clearance and often a pull‑down mount add cost.
- Do you have the mount? — supplying the right bracket adds to the total.
- Extras — soundbar, shelves or hiding a streaming box.
DIY vs hiring a pro
If you're confident with a stud finder, level and drill — and the TV's a manageable size on drywall — DIY is doable. Hire a pro when the TV is large, the wall is masonry or over a fireplace, you want cables hidden in the wall, or you simply don't want to risk a $1,500 TV on a $10 anchor. In San Diego, a pro mount's peace of mind is usually worth the $129‑ish.
