Common DIY TV Mounting Mistakes

Having your TV mounted by a professional handyman helps prevent many common mistakes during DIY TV mount jobs.

Unstable TV Mount

A properly-mounted TV should stay securely fitted to the mounting brackets, wall, or mounting surface. With improper installations, screws and mounting brackets may come loose, causing the TV to fall.

Skip the risk of a broken TV by using professional handyman services to get a secure mount.

Crooked TV Mount

Many DIY installs result in crooked screens. Correcting this issue damages the wall or mounting surface; fixing the level takes time and tools. Save time and money on wall repairs by calling A Small Job LLC.

Cluttered Appearance

Many people rush into TV installation, neglecting to conceal or secure wires. This leads to a messy look and can distract or take away from the room’s aesthetic appeal. Additionally, exposed wires can pose safety hazards for children and pets. You can avoid these risks by concealing or adequately securing all cables and wires.

Improper Wiring

Some TV installations require professional wiring, but this process can be hazardous and challenging. For example, improper wiring can result in blown fuses, damaged televisions, electrical arcs, and other problems. Avoid these risks by speaking with professional handyman technicians before and during your TV placement.
