Hi all,
As the title suggests i have no knowledge whatsoever on how to mount a tv on the wall and would appreciate some help if you kind folks are able to.
I have a fairly new house and as far is i can tell i have hollow walls, not solid brick, the house is around 20 years old and looks as if it's been built by the lowest bidder. Now as i said i believe the walls are hollow but I've been made aware of "studs" in the wall which you would attach a wall mount to. Can someone advise me if this is correct?
Another thing is the cables, i wanting to have the tidy no cables look. After studying the "Wot no wires" thread i can see that it requires trenches dug out of the wall to put the cables into and then the wall plastered and hey presto. It looks all straight forward and easy, i think i might be able to pull it off with help from my mates, but is it that easy or is it deceptively difficult?
I think that's about it for now. And, depending on the responses from my call for help we'll see if i can get it done in the next couple of weeks.
All comments welcome, thanks.
