Brick ramblers, basements and Olympus Cove view homes
Ramblers have a brick fireplace wall in the living room and drywall or plaster elsewhere. We drill brick only in solid faces with masonry anchors and use lag bolts into studs on framed walls. Brick vs. veneer.
Basements have framed walls in front of the concrete foundation. The mount goes into the studs, and the cables run through the framing cavity to an outlet ($69). Hiding cables.
View homes in Olympus Cove
Hillside homes have tall walls of windows toward the valley and stone fireplaces. We pick the wall out of the glare, check the heat and the viewing height, and use a tilting mount ($49) when the TV sits high. TV height.
Earthquake straps
The Wasatch Fault runs along the east bench. Every mount goes into studs or masonry with hardware rated well above the TV, and every articulating arm gets a safety strap. Toggles vs. lag bolts.

What this means for your TV wall
The median Millcreek home was built in 1973, and 33.3% went up between 1960 and 1979, the largest share of any era. That usually means wood studs behind drywall upstairs and a framed basement wall below. With 38.6% of households renting, many TV walls belong to a landlord, so we often suggest a painted raceway that leaves only the mount holes at move-out. Infill townhomes add shared party walls, which change how we hide cables.
Three eras of Millcreek walls
Canyon Rim and the older parts of Olympus Cove filled up after World War II, when returning veterans bought homes here. Many of those houses pair brick veneer with cinder block or framed walls, so Anton always starts with one small test hole: veneer is a skin, not structure, and anchors must reach the block's solid web or a stud behind it. The 1960s and 70s split-levels of East Mill Creek are friendlier — drywall on wood studs upstairs, a framed wall ahead of the foundation downstairs — and a hidden cable run there is $69. The newest era started after 2010, when growth turned to infill townhomes along the Highland Drive corridor, such as Opus Green and Axis. There the TV wall is often shared with a neighbor, which changes how we hide the wires.

Renters, party walls and owners: wires first
In a rental or a Highland Drive townhome, the cable plan comes before the bracket. On a wall you share with a neighbor, we mount into the studs but keep electrical boxes out of the cavity and run a slim raceway painted to the wall color ($39); at move-out it leaves only small screw holes. In a detached house, an in-wall run uses a listed power kit fed from your existing outlet; the TV's own cord never goes inside the wall. A brand-new outlet is an electrician's job, and Millcreek's Building Department asks for a permit on nearly all construction. Townhome association? Utah law limits HOA rules on a dwelling's interior and lets you hire a contractor who is not on a preferred-vendor list. Send photos of the wall through our request form, and we will plan the run before arriving.
From our Millcreek job log
A few jobs from the last months — the kind of walls and setups we see here most.
Highland Drive townhome
Shared party wall: Anton lagged into studs, skipped the in-wall box, ran a painted raceway and strapped the arm.

East Mill Creek split-level basement
A duct bulkhead sat above the wall, so Anton picked a bar without up-firing drivers and ran cables to the stair closet.

TV mounting in Millcreek, UT: common questions
Can you mount a TV in my basement family room?
Yes. Basement walls are framed in front of the concrete, so the mount goes into studs and the cables run inside the framing.
Can you mount on the brick fireplace wall in a rambler?
Yes. We drill into solid brick with masonry anchors, never the mortar, and check the heat above the firebox first.
How much does TV mounting cost in Millcreek?
$119 up to 60 inches, $129 up to 85 inches and $40 for each additional TV. No travel fee.
Are wall-mounted TVs safe in an earthquake?
Mounted into studs or masonry with rated hardware and a safety strap on arms, yes.
How soon can you come to Millcreek?
Usually the same day or the next, seven days a week, 8am–8pm.
Can you mount a TV on an Olympus Cove deck?
Yes, under a solid roof; open pergolas catch too much snow and hail. Millcreek began administering the Wildland Urban Interface Code on January 1, 2026, so if a foothill deck needs new wiring, ask the Building Department first.
Who covers Millcreek?
Anton, our first technician in Utah. His crew starts from West Jordan and covers all of Salt Lake County, so Millcreek shares routes with Holladay and Sugar House. Two in three requests sent before noon get a same-day slot.
Is opening a wall in a 1950s Canyon Rim house risky?
It can be: asbestos-tainted vermiculite from Libby, Montana, went to Salt Lake City plants and is common in Utah attics. In houses built before 1992 we never route cables through the attic, keep to two small openings and never sand.
