TV Installs With Floating Shelves Supplied by the Customer

A run of installs where the customer bought their own floating shelves and we hung them — usually under a wall-mounted TV, usually to get the media boxes off the floor and the cables out of sight.

  • 10,000+ installations completed
  • $2,000,000 liability insurance
  • One-year material & workmanship warranty

Shelf already assembled? $60 to hang it. Need it assembled first? $80 on top. Ask about the combo price with a TV and wire concealment.

The brief

Your Shelf, Our Wall Fixings

Floating shelves are sold on the promise that they hover with nothing holding them up. What actually holds them up is a bracket buried inside the shelf and whatever that bracket is fixed to — and the hardware in the box is almost always sized for the easy case rather than for your wall and the weight you are about to put on it.

That is the part we take over. You buy whatever shelf suits the room; we work out what is behind the wall and fix it with anchors rated for the real load. Under a mounted TV this is the cleanest way to get a soundbar, a console and the media boxes off the floor, and it pairs naturally with wire concealment because everything ends up in one place.

What it costs

  • Shelf already assembled: $60 to hang it
  • Assembly needed first: $80 on top of that
  • Combo pricing when booked with a TV install
  • Cheaper again with wire concealment in the same visit
  • Ask us for the combo price — it is always less than booking separately

What we check first

  • What is actually behind the wall at shelf height
  • The real load — shelf, console, media boxes and all
  • Anchors rated for that load, not the ones in the box
  • Shelf height and depth against the TV above it
  • Whether cable can be dropped behind the shelf while we are there

How it goes

How Shelf Installs Work

The short version: have it assembled when we arrive and it costs you less.

  1. Send a photo and the shelf

    The wall, and the make or weight of the shelf if you have it to hand.

  2. We confirm the price

    $60 assembled, $80 more if we assemble it, or a combo price alongside a TV install.

  3. Assemble it if you can

    An assembled shelf waiting for us is the cheapest version of this job.

  4. Fixings sized to the load

    We find the structure and anchor for what the shelf will actually carry.

  5. Levelled and loaded

    Hung level, checked under load, and cable tucked away behind it if you want that too.
