Your brand new TV has just arrived, and suddenly you have a thousand questions racing through your mind:
Can my wall support my TV?
At what height should I mount it?
What types of screws or plugs should I use?
And many more questions that can be tricky if you’re not a seasoned DIY enthusiast!
But there’s nothing easier than ensuring your TV doesn’t end up on the floor: contact a wall TV installer (which you can do with Yoojo)!
Before you get started, you probably want to know how much it will cost, right?
No worries, I know what I’m talking about, as Yoojo already helped hundreds of customers to mount their TV on the wall.
In this guide, I’ll show you how much it typically costs to get the job done, give you concrete examples of prices paid by Yoojo customers, and explain how you can request free quotes to get your personalised price.
Let's get started!
Not all TVs can be mounted on the wall. They must meet the VESA standard. Before purchasing your TV, check the product manual to confirm its compatibility (don't worry, almost all TVs can be wall-mounted nowadays)!
What are the average prices charged by TV installers?
Before diving into specific installation types and their costs, I did a little research to find out the average price for a home TV installation service.
Not only did I calculate the average from the 230 TV installations paid for on Yoojo, but I also requested three quotes for installations on plasterboard and concrete walls from other installation services across the UK.
Here are the results of my research on the average cost of mounting a TV:
Yoojo home service:
Traditional company:
There are two main reasons:
Yoojo connects you only with local experts. This means your provider’s travel costs are much lower.
Yoojo is fully digital. Unlike a placement agency or traditional company, our 100% digital format means you pay less for the same service.
Examples of TV installation prices from Yoojo's clients
Let’s dig a little deeper by showing you examples of prices paid by Yoojo customers.
I’ve made sure to include various types of installations so that you can accurately estimate the price you might pay.
Ready to see what your neighbours paid?
Example 1: Installing a TV on a load-bearing wall
💰 Price paid: £45
⏳ Duration of service: 2 hours
Let's start with a classic example: a customer from Edinburgh wants to mount a TV on a load-bearing wall.
No complications here—this is a frequently requested service on Yoojo, with thousands of professionals available across London and the surrounding area.
For this 2-hour job, our customer paid the very reasonable price of £45!
Example 2: Mounting a TV on a concrete wall
💰 Price paid: £50
⏳ Duration of service: 1 hour
Here, the customer was looking for an expert with the right tools to drill into concrete. This isn't a problem—there are plenty of professionals on Yoojo equipped for the job—but this type of equipment can be expensive to purchase, which affects the price.
In this case, £50 for the full installation.
Example 3: Wall mounting a TV without visible cables
💰 Price paid: £55
⏳ Duration of service: 3 hours
This type of job is very popular on Yoojo right now. Customers not only want their TV mounted, but they also want the cables hidden!
No problem for our DIY expert from London, who completed the job for £55. Just make sure to book enough time in your provider’s schedule.
At Yoojo, you pay for the completed task. Providers will offer you a price to complete the job you’ve posted.
In our request form, you can choose the number of “service hours”. This is simply to block time in the DIYer’s schedule. Keep this in mind if the job is likely to take a while!
Example 4: Cable management with TV installation
💰 Price paid: £50
⏳ Duration of service: 2 hours
Sometimes, it’s impossible to completely hide the cables, but it is possible to create a tidy cable management system that makes your setup look sleek.
This is exactly what this customer from Norwich needed. They booked a DIYer on Yoojo and got their job done for £50 over 2 hours.
On our platform, you can fully personalise your request. If no one offers their services or you can’t find the right provider, you won’t pay anything... Feel free to post as many requests as you like!
Example 5: TV wall mount on plasterboard
💰 Price paid: £52
⏳ Duration of service: 1.5 hours
Here’s a common request we see on Yoojo: mounting a TV on plasterboard! Yes, it is possible to safely install a TV on plasterboard.
Like this customer, I recommend you clearly mention the type of wall where the installation will take place. If you’re unsure, you can say so, or even better, include a photo in your job request.
It’s the little details that help providers offer you the most accurate price for your needs.
Example 6: Installing a projector
💰 Price paid: £45
⏳ Duration of service: 2 hours
It’s not exactly a TV, but its installation is very similar!
On Yoojo, you can also request projector installations, just like this customer in Bromley did.
The final price for the job was similar to a typical TV mount: £45 for 2 hours of service.
Example 7: Complicated TV installation
💰 Price paid: £70
⏳ Duration of service: 3 hours
Let’s dive into a more complex case. In such situations, I strongly recommend you clearly explain any difficulties your provider might face.
Even though Yoojo offers material and personal injury insurance that covers you in case something goes wrong, the goal is for you to be completely happy with the result.
For this tricky installation, the price was higher than average.
This customer paid £70 for the job, a bit more than usual.
The installation was so complicated that the customer had to book an extra hour with their provider—no problem! You can do that in just two clicks from your Yoojo client account.
Example 8: Correcting a poorly done TV installation
💰 Price paid: £30
⏳ Duration of service: 1 hour
Sometimes, life doesn't go as planned, and Yoojo can help fix the mistakes made by a bad contractor or even a family member who swore they could handle the job (sorry, Uncle Fred!).
Our strength lies in our network of hundreds of handymen all over the UK, allowing you to find the perfect provider for your needs.
Plus, thanks to our detailed provider profiles and the ability to chat via our integrated messaging system, it’s easy to choose the right person for the job.
Example 9: Requesting additional tasks
💰 Price paid: £25
⏳ Duration of service: 1.5 hours
Did you know you can request additional or complementary services on Yoojo to save on your provider’s travel costs?
Let me explain.
Do you need to mount your TV and also install curtain rods or picture frames?
Because these tasks are very similar (drilling and screwing), you can include them in the same job request and have them done at the same time by a single provider.
This way, you save time and money!
