Fast, safe, and clean. We professionally remove any size TV from any wall type—drywall, brick, stone, or above the fireplace. Whether you are moving out, upgrading your screen, or remodeling, we handle the heavy lifting and wall restoration.
Taking a TV down is often more precarious than putting it up. A professional dismounting service solves three major move-out problems:
Different brackets require specific unlocking sequences to release the TV safely. Our technicians are trained to handle all major mounting hardware without forcing or damaging the wall structure.
Most professional brackets are secured with large lag bolts that leave significant holes in the drywall. We carefully remove all hardware and provide professional patching to fill these voids, making the surface flush and smooth.
Removing mounts from brick, stone, or stucco requires specialized tools to prevent the masonry from cracking or chipping. We use precision techniques to remove anchors from these hard surfaces safely.
We don’t just leave you with a pile of metal. We ensure that all original mounting screws, spacers, and washers stay organized and attached to your TV or bracket so your next installation is seamless.
If you have an in-wall power bridge, we cap off the electrical runs to ensure the home remains code-compliant and safe for the next resident.
Many homeowners assume that taking a TV down is easier than putting it up, only to realize that removal can be just as hazardous. We receive calls every week to repair damage caused by improper DIY removal. Here are the three most common hazards we help you avoid:
We don’t guess, and we don’t rush. Every technician follows our strict 4-point safety protocol to ensure your TV is removed safely and your home is left in perfect condition.
When dismounting a TV, proper wire and component management is crucial for both wall restoration and preserving your valuable home theater equipment. We ensure every cable and in-wall system is handled with care.
If your previous installation utilized an external raceway to conceal cables, we carefully remove the PVC track from the wall. We then clean any adhesive residue, leaving your wall surface smooth and ready for paint or touch-ups.
For premium “floating” TV setups, we carefully retrieve all HDMI, optical, and audio cables from behind the wall. We ensure they are pulled out gently without snagging or damage, leaving them ready for your next installation.
If you have a code-compliant In-Wall Power Bridge, we safely disconnect and cap off the electrical wiring. This is crucial for both safety and compliance, ensuring no live wires are left exposed or improperly terminated for future residents.
