TV mounting and furniture assembly in Mountain View

Mounting TVs and shelves in Mountain View rentals

Renters occupy 61.4% of Mountain View's occupied homes, and 38.6% are owner-occupied. In a rental, mounting starts with permission: many leases require the landlord's okay before anything is screwed into a wall, and the holes have to be patched at move-out. We handle both ends of that, putting the TV up now and patching and painting the anchor holes when the lease ends.

Tell us the TV size, the wall type if you know it and the bracket you plan to use; a photo of the wall helps. Buildings with five or more units hold 49.0% of the city's housing, and many of their walls are shared, so we confirm what's behind the drywall before drilling. Anything tall, like a dresser or bookcase, is anchored to the wall so it can't tip.
