1920s house off Beverly Drive
A flat 10-foot plaster ceiling suits an up-firing Atmos bar, so it hangs under the screen with one hidden eARC HDMI.

Highland Park is a town of 3,667 homes, surrounded by Dallas and University Park, where a 1920s house by Hal Thomson may stand beside a 2015 rebuild. We mount TVs in both, hide cables in plaster or new drywall and book inside the town's Monday-to-Saturday hours, often the same day.
TV mounting in Highland Park is flat-rate: $119 up to 60", $129 for 61–85" and from $179 for 86" and larger, plus $40 for each additional TV. Mounts from $39, cables hidden in a raceway for $39 or inside the wall for $69. No travel fee and no surcharge for stone or brick.

Historic plaster, limestone fireplaces and careful installs
Original homes have plaster over wood or metal lath, and studs at the spacing of a 1920s framer. We probe with a thin bit behind where the mount will hide, drill slowly without the hammer and use a painted backer when the studs don't fall where the TV belongs. Mounts for plaster walls.
Carved stone and limestone fireplaces are rarely drilled. We usually mount on the paneled or plaster wall beside them, or on a pull-down mount above the mantel anchored into the structure (assembly $99). Pull-down mounts.
The Frame and hidden equipment
Samsung Frame TVs are a common choice in formal rooms. The One Connect box goes in a cabinet or recessed box, one thin cable runs inside the wall, and the TV hangs flush like a painting. Frame installation.
Alleys, staff and schedules
Most Park Cities homes have rear-alley access — we come to the back. Many households have house managers or security; send us the arrival instructions and we coordinate with them.

What this means for your TV wall
With 41.8% of homes built before 1960, the wall behind most TVs in town is plaster on lath, and we plan a second small opening for the cable run. Another 14.0% went up in 2010 or later, many as rebuilds with wood studs, media niches and pre-wired closets. Since 89.4% of homes are owner-occupied, most families want cables gone for good inside the wall, not a removable raceway, and we quote it that way from the first call.
Original house or rebuild: what is behind the wall
Many blocks west of Preston still hold houses that Hal Thomson, Anton Korn or the Fooshee and Cheek partnership designed, and the lot next door may have been cleared and rebuilt since 2010. The two need different plans. In an original house we locate framing through the lath, set the anchors there and fish the cables between two small openings, the upper one hidden behind the mount plate. In a rebuild the walls are wood studs and drywall, often with a media niche and an equipment closet already wired, so the work is mostly about putting the screen where you sit. Either way, the TV's own power cord never goes inside the wall: hidden power runs through a listed in-wall kit ($69) or an outlet your electrician adds. Read how we hide cables or check a viewing height first.

Fitting the visit into the town's work hours
Highland Park lets construction and trade work run Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., with nothing on Sundays or holidays. We schedule the same way, so the latest start we offer leaves time to pack up before six; a plaster job with hidden cables and a soundbar can pass two hours. Book in the morning and Bohdan's North Dallas crew can usually reach your back gate that afternoon. Tell us at booking whether it is an original house or a rebuild, so the right bits and anchors ride on the truck. The town also expects trades to be state-licensed and registered with it, so a new outlet behind a screen goes to a licensed electrician working to the 2023 NEC the town adopted. Neighbors in University Park get the same crew and flat prices. Ready to plan the wall? Send a request.

The builder's box sat behind a planned bookcase, so a listed in-wall power kit went in at screen center.

TV mounting in Highland Park, TX: common questions
Can you mount a TV on original plaster in a Highland Park home?
Yes — studs found through the lath, careful drilling, and plaster at the drywall price.
Do you install Samsung Frame TVs?
Yes, flush on the Slim Fit mount with the One Connect box hidden.
How much does TV mounting cost in Highland Park?
$119 up to 60 inches, $129 up to 85 inches, no travel fee.
Can you come on a Sunday?
No. The town limits trade work to Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., with holidays off, and we follow it. Saturday slots fill first; a weekday morning booking often gets you a same-day afternoon visit.
Will an Atmos soundbar work in an older house?
Often, yes. Up-firing drivers bounce sound off the ceiling, and many 1920s rooms in town have flat plaster ceilings near 10 feet, which suits them. We mount the bar under the screen and hide the eARC HDMI; the add-on is $69. See soundbar installs.
Will you heat-test our gas fireplace first?
Every time. We run the logs at full output for 20 minutes and read the surface where the screen would hang. When that spot comes in too hot, we suggest the wall beside the fireplace or a pull-down mount rather than guessing.
