Okay, you tried to mount your TV yourself but you just couldn’t figure out the right way to properly mount your TV. It was loose, wobbly, or both, and you could not get the right fit. Now you decided to get a technician to help you get the job done. However, not all “technicians” are technicians, and not all “professionals” are professionals. Like in many other professions, among TV mounting technicians, quacks exist and are all over the place. They can cause serious damage to your TV or wall, stain your couch, or even steal from you. It is never written on their face, nor will they tell you that they are quacks. What good is in spending all that money on a TV mounting technician who eventually does a mediocre job?
Here are 7 useful guidelines you should focus on when selecting a good TV mounting technician:
- Calm and pays attention to details
- Focuses on safety
- Delivers fast services with the least waiting time
- Delivers extra services (like concealing cables)
- Gives sound and trustworthy advice
- Good and responsive customer service
- Choose value over price
7 Useful Guidelines for Selecting a Good TV Mounting Technician
- Calmness and attention to detail
The first sign of a good TV mounting technician is countenance. As much as possible, always choose a TV mounting technician who is calm enough to settle down and analyze your room, paying attention to details like your room layout, wall strength, wall type, best viewing angles, sun glare, ceiling height, and other details. The last thing you want is a technician who is in haste to get the job done.
- Safety First
A good TV mounting technician is always keen on safety. This is one major difference between the quacks and the pros. When selecting a TV mounting technician, choose one who takes safety precautions like finding the studs in the wall, choosing the safest wall mounts for your TV, proper placement of tools, and avoiding any electrical or plumbing fittings inside the wall.
- Fast and quick scheduling
You should not have to wait weeks before getting your TV mounted. Choose a TV mounting technician or company that delivers services as quickly as possible. If you have to wait so long before your technician can get to you, choose another.
- Extra Services
Asides from the technical aspects of mounting your TV like drilling holes, mounting brackets, and so on, a good TV mounting technician should know how to do the extra stuff like concealing cables for neatness, tidying up after work, and general knowledge of how TVs work just in case any problems arise. You don’t want your home disorganized and dusty just because you mounted your TV.
- Sound and Trustworthy Advice
A good TV mounting technician must be able to answer the numerous questions you have about your TV mounts and any other related questions. Watch out for technicians who try to evade your questions, they might be quacks! A good TV mounting technician must also be able to give sound advice about the safety of your TV and what you should or shouldn’t do around your TV.
- Good customer service
This cannot be overlooked. A TV mounting technician or company with poor customer service is like a bad egg and should be thrown into the trash. When choosing a mounting technician, choose one with good and responsive customer service. This includes prompt responses, a warm and friendly voice, and quick access to a quote or service.
- Value over Price
Do not fall into the temptation of looking for the cheapest TV technicians. Cheap doesn’t equal best. Focus more on the guidelines listed above before considering the price for services. After all, you don’t want to pay little for mounting your expensive TV just so it ends up falling to the ground.
There you have it! If you have successfully followed at least 5 of the guidelines above, we are confident that you have successfully identified a good TV mounting technician.
