For a standard installation in Northern Virginia, Maryland or DC, professional TV mounting typically costs $120 to $220. That price generally includes locating studs, installing the mount dead level at the right height, hanging the TV and basic cord management.
What moves the price up
Four things: TV size (75-inch and up takes two people and heavier hardware), wall type (brick, stone and concrete need masonry anchors and more time), cable concealment (running cables inside the wall adds roughly $50 to $150 depending on what is behind the drywall), and fireplace mounting, which needs heat and clearance checks.
Should you buy the mount yourself?
Either works. A quality full-motion mount runs $40 to $120 retail; fixed mounts less. If your installer supplies it, expect it itemized on the quote. Beware $25 bargain mounts for heavy TVs: the mount is the one part you do not want failing.
Is it worth paying for?
A failed DIY mount means a broken TV and a wall repair that together cost ten times the install. Professionals find studs reliably, level precisely and know when drywall anchors are and are not safe.
