85-Inch TV Tilt Mount on Tile Fireplace in Dunwoody, GA
85-Inch TV Tilt Mount on Tile Fireplace in Dunwoody, GA — how was it done?
This Dunwoody, GA project put an 85-inch television on tile fireplace with a tilt mount. We drilled through the tile with a diamond bit and light water cooling, then anchored into the solid backer behind it. A tilt mount was specified so the screen can angle downward, cutting daylight glare and correcting the viewing angle from seated height. As part of the job all low-voltage cabling was routed inside the wall cavity and terminated at recessed plates. The homeowner was left with a straight, secure 85-inch screen and a wall free of visible hardware.
Key takeaways
- 85-inch display on tile fireplace, Dunwoody, GA 30338.
- Tilt mount, anchored into structure rather than surface material.
- Included: In-wall wire concealment.
- Completed in a single visit by The TV Mount Men, with the wall left clean and the screen levelled.
Project Summary
A Dunwoody, GA homeowner wanted an 85-inch TV mounted on their large porcelain tile fireplace surround. The heavy-duty tilt mount required precision diamond drilling through the tile and multi-stud anchoring behind. In-wall wire concealment keeps all cables hidden for a clean, upscale appearance.
Installation Details
The 85-inch TV was mounted on a heavy-duty tilt bracket with six anchor points drilled through the porcelain tile into three wall studs behind. Diamond-core bits drilled clean, chip-free holes through the tile. Wire concealment routes all cables through adjacent drywall to the media console. The TV center is at 56 inches with 12 degrees of downward tilt.
Professional Techniques Used
Diamond-core drilling with water cooling at six points through porcelain tile. Through-tile sleeve anchors into three wall studs for the 85-inch panel's weight. Steel leveling shims behind the mounting plate. Low-voltage cable plates and in-wall power bridge in adjacent drywall. Masking tape on all drill points to prevent surface chipping.
Benefits to the Customer
The Dunwoody homeowner has a stunning 85-inch TV above their tile fireplace with completely hidden wiring. The six-point tile anchoring system supports the large display securely, and the tilt angle provides glare-free viewing from the spacious living room seating.
