65-Inch Flush TV Mount with New Outlet in Buford, GA Living Room
Project Summary
A Buford, GA homeowner asked us to mount their 65-inch TV flush against the main living room wall with a brand-new outlet installed directly behind the panel for a cord-free finish. During the wiring path mapping, our technicians found a wood stud blocking the cleanest in-wall route between the existing power source and the new outlet location, so we delivered a hybrid solution: a brand-new recessed outlet behind the TV plus a low-profile paintable cable concealment strip to bridge the unreachable section.
Installation Details
The 65-inch TV was installed on a low-profile fixed bracket, anchored into two wood studs in the living room drywall and laser-leveled before final tightening. A new 120V recessed outlet box was cut into the drywall directly behind the TV's footprint so the power cord plugs in completely hidden behind the panel. To navigate the wood stud that blocked the cleanest in-wall route from the existing wall outlet up to the new TV outlet, we installed a slim paintable cable concealment strip to carry the supply line over the obstructed section — a code-friendly alternative to drilling through structural framing.
Professional Techniques Used
Two wood studs were located and confirmed with a deep-scan stud finder before lag bolts were torqued to spec into the bracket's mounting plate. For the power install, we cut a clean recessed outlet box behind the TV and tied into the existing wall circuit. Because a structural stud blocked the most direct in-wall path, we used a surface-mount paintable cable concealment strip — a clean, professional alternative that preserves the wood framing while still hiding the wire run. The strip was painted to match the wall so the finished look stays minimal and the wall above the TV stays completely clean.
Benefits to the Customer
The Buford living room now has a 65-inch TV mounted flush and perfectly level with a brand-new outlet hidden directly behind the panel — zero visible cords above the TV. The paintable cable strip cleanly bridges the section blocked by the wood stud without compromising structural framing or requiring drywall demolition. Dual-stud anchoring with grade-8 hardware ensures long-term stability, and the entire install is backed by our 5-year workmanship warranty.
