Brick Wall TV Mounting Installation
Brick walls add character and beauty to a home — and they make an outstanding surface for mounting a television. Unlike drywall, brick provides an incredibly strong anchoring point that eliminates concerns about stud placement. TV Solutions uses specialized masonry tools and concrete anchors to deliver a rock-solid installation on any brick wall, interior or exterior, with clean cord concealment that preserves the look of your brickwork.
Why Brick Is Ideal for TV Mounting
Brick is one of the strongest mounting surfaces available. While drywall installations require finding studs for secure anchoring, brick allows you to mount your TV at the exact position you want — no stud hunting required. Masonry anchors drilled directly into brick provide an extremely rigid connection that does not flex, shift, or vibrate over time. This makes brick particularly well-suited for heavy TVs and full-motion mounts that place lateral stress on the mounting hardware.
Masonry Drilling Technique
We drill into the brick face (not the mortar joints) for maximum holding strength. A hammer drill with carbide-tipped masonry bits creates clean, precisely-sized holes. Stainless steel concrete anchors or sleeve anchors are inserted and torqued to the manufacturer's specification. Our technicians use dust extraction during drilling to keep your home clean and protect surrounding surfaces from brick dust. Low-speed, controlled drilling prevents cracking or chipping.
Cord Concealment on Brick Walls
Routing cables through solid brick requires a different approach than drywall. We offer several options: paintable surface raceways that follow the contour of the brick for a clean, low-profile result; conduit runs with discrete entry and exit points drilled through the masonry; or routing cables behind baseboards and trim to reach a media console. Each approach is customized to your wall layout and aesthetic preference.
Fixed, Tilting & Full-Motion on Brick
We install all mount types on brick walls. Fixed mounts sit the TV flush against the brickwork for a sleek, integrated look. Tilting mounts angle downward for above-fireplace or elevated installations. Full-motion articulating mounts extend and swivel, which is ideal for open floor plans or rooms where you want to redirect the screen. Brick's rigidity makes it especially well-suited for full-motion mounts because the wall absorbs the lateral forces without flexing.
