Mounting & Hanging Services
Handis mounting and hanging is residential install work for TVs, mirrors, art, floating shelves, curtain rods, blinds, anti-tip anchors, and specialty AV gear on any wall type — drywall, plaster, brick, stone, tile, or concrete — from $120. A TV leaned against a wall, a mirror in bubble wrap on the floor, three shelf brackets in a bag that has been on the counter for a month. We send a vetted tech who finds the studs, picks the right anchor for the wall you actually have, and gets everything up level in one visit.

What Does Mounting & Hanging Service Include?
Mounting and hanging is a residential handyman trade that anchors items to walls and ceilings — TVs, mirrors, art, shelves, curtain rods, blinds, anti-tip brackets, and specialty AV gear — by matching the fastener to the wall and leveling whatever is hung. Handis covers seven service families on drywall, plaster, brick, stone, tile, and concrete, each with its own hardware kit and pricing starting at $120. Each family has its own pricing, its own hardware kit, and its own quirks.
TV Wall Mounting
Flat, tilt, and full-motion brackets on drywall, brick, stone, tile, and concrete. Includes specialty above-fireplace installs (masonry anchors plus heat-clearance check) and full cord concealment — in-wall when the wall can be cut, color-matched raceway when it cannot. From $120, most installs land $160 to $400. A full service-hub with four variant pages below.

Picture & Mirror Hanging
Heavy mirrors, oversized canvases, gallery walls, shadow boxes. Above 25 pounds the wall material decides the hardware: drywall takes toggle bolts, plaster takes longer-shank toggles, brick takes masonry sleeves into the mortar. French cleats for anything that has to sit dead flush. From $120.
Floating Shelf Installation
Floating shelves fail when the concealed bracket is anchored into drywall alone instead of the stud behind it. We find the studs, mark the bracket positions, and only fall back to rated toggles when the stud spacing forces it. Level checked on the rod and on the shelf surface. From $150.
Curtain Rod & Drapery Hardware
Single rods, double rods (sheer behind blackout), bay-window flexible tracks, ceiling-mounted rods over slider doors. Brackets get anchored past the window frame so the curtain stack sits clear of the glass. From $120.

Blinds & Shades Installation
Inside-mount and outside-mount roller shades, Roman shades, faux-wood blinds, vertical blinds for sliders, motorized smart shades paired with Alexa, Google Home, or HomeKit, and plantation shutters mounted directly to the window frame. From $200.
Heavy-Item Anchoring & Anti-Tip
Dressers, bookshelves, tall storage cabinets, freestanding ranges, TVs on stands, and water heaters. Metal L-brackets into studs — the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission specifically warns against the plastic strap kits that ship in furniture boxes. California requires double-strap on water heaters. From $120.
Heavy-Item Anchoring & Anti-Tip
Specialty Mounting — Projectors, Soundbars, Ceiling Speakers
Ceiling-mount projectors anchored into joists, pull-down and fixed-frame screens centered on the throw, soundbars under or beside the TV, surround and in-ceiling speakers cut into drywall with manufacturer templates, and pull-up bars rated for real body weight. Cables routed through the wall or behind a painted raceway so the install reads as finished. From $160.

Why Homeowners Book Handis for Mounting
Most mounting calls trace back to the same three failures — a stud finder that read foil-backed insulation as a stud, a plastic drywall anchor used on something heavier than it was rated for, and a French cleat hung crooked because the wall behind it was crooked. After a few thousand mounts on drywall, plaster, lath, brick, stone, concrete, and tile-over-cement-board, every one of those failures has a fix. The crew arrives with the hardware to handle whatever the wall turns out to be, not just whatever the box said it was.
Right anchor for the wall you actually have
Wood stud, metal stud, hollow drywall, plaster over lath, brick into the mortar joint, poured concrete, tile over cement board, hollow block — each one fails a different way with the wrong fastener. The truck carries toggles, snap-toggles, lag screws, masonry sleeves, carbide bits, and a diamond-tipped tile bit for every one of them.
Hidden cords by default on TV work
Power cord inside the wall is a fire-code violation everywhere in the U.S. Low-voltage runs (HDMI, coax, speaker) are fine. For TVs we install a code-compliant in-wall power-relocation kit or run a color-matched surface raceway when the wall cannot be cut. The wall ends up clean either way.
Level checked twice, not eyeballed
4-foot bubble level on the bracket. Laser line on multi-piece sets. Old houses settle and most window frames are out of square by a quarter-inch — the brackets follow the level line, not the trim line, so the finished install looks straight to the eye even when the frame is not.
One visit, one drop cloth, one cleanup
Multi-item lists get scheduled in sequence so the wall prep, drill setup, and vacuum cleanup each happen once instead of four times. A TV, three floating shelves, two curtain rods, and a mirror is one visit, not four.
Insured, background-checked, 30-day guarantee
Every Handis tech carries liability insurance and has cleared a background screening before the first job. If anything we mounted shifts, loosens, or pulls out within 30 days due to our workmanship, we come back and re-secure it at no extra charge.

What Our Customers Say
Recent mounting and hanging reviews from verified customers.
New build, every wall blank, a list of seventeen items to mount across four rooms — TV above the fireplace, gallery wall on the stairs, floating shelves in the office, curtain rods in three bedrooms. The crew measured it all on a Saturday morning, mounted everything by mid-afternoon. House finally feels finished.
Plaster walls in our 1924 bungalow had killed every anchor we tried. The tech showed up with longer-shank toggle bolts specifically rated for plaster over lath. Hung four heavy mirrors and a 50-inch TV. Nothing has moved.
75-inch TV above a stone fireplace. The tech ran a heat-clearance check before he drilled anything, dropped the mount two inches lower than I had planned because the firebox would have cooked the screen at the original height. Worth every dollar — he caught what I missed.
Anti-tip job on a two-year-old's room. Tech swapped out the plastic strap that came with the dresser for a metal L-bracket bolted into the stud, did the same with the bookshelf and the changing table. Took twenty minutes and now nothing tips.
Six windows, three with motorized blinds that needed to pair with Google Home, two bay windows that needed flexible track rods. He had all of it working — schedule, voice control, both bay windows — by lunch. The instructions that came in the box were useless. He just knew what to do.
