Fireplace TV Mounting in Dunwoody: Local Installer Guide

What it actually takes to mount a TV above a fireplace in Dunwoody — surfaces, height, and the MantelMount fix.

Dunwoody fireplaces tend to be tall — 6 to 8 feet on stacked stone or brick in the great rooms of Dunwoody Country Club, Brook Run, and Williamsburg. That makes a static mount uncomfortable to watch. Here's the local installer playbook.

Common Dunwoody Surfaces

  • Stacked stone (most common in Dunwoody Country Club)
  • Brick (classic 1970s–80s ranches and split-levels)
  • Stucco-over-CMU on chimney breasts
  • Drywall surround with stone hearth

Solving the Height Problem

For most Dunwoody fireplaces we recommend a MantelMount pull-down. The TV rests above the mantel and pulls down to eye level for viewing — no neck strain, no compromise on the room layout.

Dunwoody Fireplace Pricing

  • Stone or brick fireplace: $199–$399
  • MantelMount labor: $199–$399 plus bracket
  • In-wall wire concealment behind firebox or up the chase: $99–$199

Our Process

  1. Verify substrate (real stone vs. veneer matters for anchor selection).
  2. Confirm heat clearance above the firebox.
  3. Diamond-bit pilot drilling, masonry anchors.
  4. Pull-test the bracket at 1.5x TV weight.
  5. Mount, level, route wires.
