TV Mounting in University City: What We See Most
University City has 1960s and 1970s homes south of Governor Drive, plus many condos and apartments near UTC and UC San Diego. We see plaster in some older homes, drywall elsewhere and concrete in larger buildings.
TVs in condos and apartments, mounts above fireplaces in older homes and home office setups are typical University City jobs. We work around building rules and parking near UTC.
We check every wall before drilling, mount into the framing or with anchors rated for your wall, and leave the room clean. Most University City jobs take one to two hours per TV.

“Beautifully done and had all the extra equipment for strong anchors into the wall. He was also reasonably priced compared to the five other quotes I received. I've had 3 other tv's mounted and even tho this was easily the trickiest mounting service I've needed he completed it the fastest to any other mounting I've had. He cleaned up the dust from the drywall as well. I would 100% book him again for any tv mounting/handyman needs in the future.”
