DIY vs. Call a Pro
TV mounting is a manageable DIY project if you have a stud finder, drill, and level. Always mount into wall studs -- toggle bolts alone are not reliable for heavy TVs. Use the mount's template for drilling and have a helper hold the TV during hanging.
Call a professional when:
Hire a pro for mounting on brick, stone, or concrete walls, for in-wall cable concealment that requires fishing wires, for very large or heavy TVs (75"+), or when the mount location lacks accessible studs.
