In-wall wire concealment is the cleanest way to mount a TV — no visible cables, no surface raceways, just the TV on the wall like it grew there. Our Charlotte team installs it as a flat $40 add-on to any standard mount. Most homes are perfect candidates: drywall walls with stud bays where we run in-wall rated cables vertically from the TV down to a power outlet behind the entertainment console.
When you mount a TV without wire concealment, you typically end up with a black HDMI cable and white power cable visible against the wall. Surface raceways (plastic channels) hide them but still leave a visible bump on the wall. True in-wall concealment routes the cables INSIDE the wall through the stud bay — invisible and permanent. We use a recessed power kit (an in-wall outlet near the TV plus a passthrough plate near the floor), drill bypass holes through the top and bottom plates of the stud bay, and fish the cables down. The whole process takes 20-40 minutes for a standard installation. The result: a TV that looks like it floats on the wall with zero visible cables. We use proper in-wall rated materials — regular off-the-shelf HDMI/power cables are not designed for in-wall use, so we always swap to in-wall rated ones for hidden runs.
We locate studs, check for fire blocks, insulation, or HVAC ducts in the bay. If the wall is suitable, we proceed.
Two precise holes — one behind the TV mount, one near the floor outlet. We drill through top/bottom plates as needed.
In-wall rated power kit at TV height. HDMI passthrough plate at floor height. Both flush with the wall.
HDMI, power, optional ethernet routed through stud bay using fish tape and proper bend radius.
TV plugged into recessed outlet, source devices connect at floor plate. Full picture/sound test before we leave.
Yes — when done correctly with proper in-wall rated materials, in-wall concealment is safe and permanent. We never run regular off-the-shelf HDMI or power cables inside walls. We always use in-wall rated cables and a recessed power kit for the run.
No. We use only two small access holes (a few inches each) covered by recessed plates flush with the wall. No demolition, no large patches. The plates look intentional and clean.
20–40 minutes for most Charlotte homes with standard 2x4 wood-stud drywall construction. Add 10–20 minutes for fire blocks, insulation, or unusual wall configurations.
Almost always yes. We route cables down the side of the fireplace surround and into the wall behind it. Stone and brick fireplaces add complexity but we handle them regularly. May add $30 for masonry work.
Flat $40 add-on with any TV mount. No separate charge for materials — in-wall rated cables and recessed plates are included.
Yes. We can run HDMI, power, ethernet, and optical audio cables in the same stud bay. Same flat fee — just mention it when booking.
