Hide Tv/cable wiring setup
Posted on 7/12/18 at 11:16 pm

Have a tv mounted on wall with a bunch of wires running down to an outlet. Probably need a pro due to stud location and the way my attic is setup. Would need someone who can also move my cable isp stuff over to this location as well, along with mounting a sound bar, and do something with my Xbox to make it a clean look. Anybody have any good recommendations on who to hire in Metairie that would do this type of work?

Ok I’ll check this out. They will actually come out and do it for you? Like cut into the drywall and run wires through the walls?
Sorry tigerwise read your post as amazon lol. Read this first thing this morning. Any general idea what it would cost to do one tv? We talking like 300-500 bucks or over a grand

Do you have a piece of furniture beneath the TV?
You can get one of those hide-a-wire kits from Lowe’s. Comes with all the tools you need to DIY.

+2 on the kits. I have 3 of them installed.
If you are trying to run the wires laterally these won't be your best solution.

Interesting this may be a better option.
The problem I got is...I think there’s a stud that runs horizontal to the vertical studs so it’s not gonna be easy to run the wires vertically without getting through that horizontal stud. It’s a former exterior wall that is now enclosed in an addition

use a stud finder to find out for sure.

That is what is called a firestop.
