Most TV mounting quotes in New Orleans start with "it depends." Here it doesn't: pick the options that match your room and the total updates as you go. Every install includes finding the studs or the right anchors for your wall, mounting and leveling the TV, a clean-up, and a check of every input before we leave.

What every TV install includes

Studs, not guesses

We locate framing with a stud finder and confirm it before drilling. On plaster and lath we tape the wall and pilot-drill so it doesn't crack.

Height that works

Screen center near seated eye level, about 42 inches off the floor in most living rooms. Over a fireplace, we talk through tilt or a pull-down mount before we commit.

Left clean

Drop cloth down, dust vacuumed, packaging hauled to your bin, remotes paired and every input tested with you watching.

Your TV is mounted by AD Movers' own crew: background-checked employees who answer to owner Adonay Pineda, the same company that has worked in New Orleans homes since 2013.

"The guys showed up on time, worked to get the job done and placed everything exactly as requested. Good job and very responsive!"

Anthony M. · Google

"These guys worked for 5.5h, in the. New Orleans heat! They were awesome, and even though I was way off in how long I thought it would take, the estimate they gave me was exactly right. They did a great job."

Jean M. · Google

"We only had a large, very heavy conference room table to move, but they were very professional AND very reasonable. After moving the table, they even helped clean the heavy glass topper."

Walls we mount on in New Orleans homes

Plaster and lath

Common in Uptown, Mid-City, the Marigny and Bywater. Plaster is hard and brittle, and the lath strips behind it hide the studs. It takes slower drilling and longer lag bolts into the framing behind the lath, never into the plaster alone.

Brick and stone

Exposed brick walls and fireplace surrounds need a hammer drill and masonry anchors rated for the TV and mount. Wires can't run inside solid brick the usual way, so we plan another route or use a paintable cover.

Drywall on wood or metal studs

Newer homes, condos and apartments. Wood studs take lag bolts; metal studs in many CBD and Metairie condos need toggle anchors made for steel framing.

Tile

Kitchens, bathrooms and some feature walls. A diamond bit and tape keep the tile from cracking, and we drill through the grout lines where we can.

Hiding wires and adding an outlet behind the TV

The cleanest wall has nothing hanging under the screen. There are three ways we get there:

Paintable cord cover

A slim channel on the wall surface. It works on any wall, including brick, and you can paint it to match.

Hidden in the wall

HDMI and other cables pass through the wall from behind the TV to a plate near the outlet below, using a pass-through kit we bring. The TV's power cord is never run inside the wall; if you want it out of sight too, pick the outlet behind the TV.

Outlet behind the TV

A UL-listed in-wall power kit puts a recessed outlet behind the screen and plugs into your existing outlet below, so the power cord disappears too. New circuits and hard-wired outlets are work for a licensed electrician, and we'll tell you if your wall needs one.

Art TVs, wireless TVs and soundbars

Samsung The Frame, Canvas and gallery-style TVs

These are meant to sit flat like a picture. We use the flush mount, route the connection box to a cabinet or the wall, hide the cable and set up art mode so it looks like framed art when it's off.

Wireless TVs

Sets like the LG OLED M series and Samsung's Wireless One Connect send picture from a box in your cabinet, so only a power cord goes to the screen. An outlet behind the TV makes the wall completely cord-free. We place the box, pair it and test every input.

Soundbars

Mounted right under the TV, connected on HDMI eARC so one remote runs the volume, and the soundbar cable hidden with the TV's when you pick in-wall wires. We also pair rear speakers and subwoofers.

Setup and programming

Wi-Fi, apps and your accounts, streaming boxes, game consoles, a universal remote, and picture and sound settings tuned past the bright store mode most TVs ship in.

TV mounting questions

How much does TV mounting cost in New Orleans?

The calculator above gives you the total. Screen size, wall type, a fireplace, who supplies the mount and how the wires are handled each change it, and the price updates as you pick. That total is the price we quote. If something at your wall changes the plan, such as solid brick where you wanted wires hidden, we agree on it with you before any work starts.

How long does a TV install take?

Most single TVs on drywall with the wires hidden take one to two and a half hours. Plaster, brick, a fireplace or a pull-down mantel mount add time, and 83-inch and larger screens get two installers. The calculator shows an on-site time for your exact setup, and we give you an arrival window when we confirm the visit.

How high should the TV be mounted?

In most living rooms we put the center of the screen near seated eye level, about 42 inches off the floor. Bedrooms often go a little higher for watching from bed. Over a fireplace the TV has to sit higher, which is why we suggest a tilting or pull-down mantel mount there. We mark the spot and check it with you before we drill.

Do I need to buy the wall mount?

No. You can use your own mount if it matches your TV's VESA pattern and weight rating, or pick one in the calculator and we bring it: low-profile fixed, tilting, full-motion or a pull-down mantel mount. For 83-inch and larger TVs we recommend letting us supply a heavy-duty mount.

Can you hide the wires inside the wall?

Yes, on drywall and plaster walls with open space behind them. The cables run inside the wall to a plate near your outlet. Solid brick, block and some tile walls can't hide wires the usual way, so we plan another route or use a paintable cover and adjust the quote before starting.

Can you add an outlet behind the TV?

Yes, with a UL-listed in-wall power kit that brings power to a recessed outlet behind the screen from your existing outlet below. It's the cleanest finish for wireless and art TVs. Brand-new circuits or hard-wired outlets need a licensed electrician, and we'll tell you when your setup calls for one.

Can you mount a TV over a brick fireplace?

Yes. We drill the brick with a hammer drill and set masonry anchors rated for your TV. Fireplace TVs sit high, so a tilting mount or a pull-down mantel mount usually makes them more comfortable to watch, and we check the heat above the firebox before choosing the spot.

Will you set up the TV and soundbar?

Yes. We connect the soundbar on HDMI eARC, set up Wi-Fi and your streaming apps, connect game consoles and cable boxes, program a universal remote and tune picture and sound settings. Pick what you want in the setup step of the calculator.

How soon can you come, and what areas do you cover?

We schedule TV installs 7am–7pm, seven days a week, across New Orleans, Metairie, Kenner, the West Bank, the Northshore and the River Parishes. Text your quote from the calculator to 504-237-0855 and we'll confirm a time. We can also do it the same day as your move.

When do I pay?

When the work is finished and you've checked it. The price is the one in your quote unless you add something while we're there.
