TV Mounting Over Fireplace | Orange County

Professional TV mounting over a fireplace, done safely. Over the fireplace is the most popular spot for a TV and the easiest to get wrong. We mount TVs over fireplaces on brick, stone, tile and drywall, with pull-down mounts that bring the screen to eye level and wires hidden inside the wall or chimney chase.

What we check first

Heat: We check the temperature above the firebox and the mantel clearance.
Height: Also, we plan the screen height from your seating so you are not looking up.
Wall type: Brick, stone and tile get masonry anchors; drywall gets studs or blocking.
Wire path: In addition, we plan where the cables run before drilling, including gas lines and flues.
