A Full-Motion TV Mount Done Right
Mounting a TV above a fireplace always comes with a few extra challenges — the surface is different, the height needs to work for actual viewing (not just looking impressive), and nobody wants a tangle of cords running down a beautiful mantel. This job checked every box.

We installed a full-motion mount directly above the fireplace, giving the homeowner the flexibility to angle the screen for comfortable viewing from any seat in the room, not just dead-center. Right below it, we added a custom floating wood shelf, both a stylish design touch and a smart way to break up the transition between the TV and the fireplace surround below.

The real detail work was in the wiring. Every cable was routed and hidden so the finished look stays clean and uncluttered, no cords hanging in front of the fireplace, nothing running down the wall. Combined with careful anchor placement to protect the fireplace surface, the whole setup went up without a single mark left behind.

The result: a modern, cord-free entertainment setup that looks like it was built into the room from day one.
