Getting cable out of sight under Kings Mountain floors
Nearly every older home in Kings Mountain rides on a crawl space, and that is the cable route we reach for first. The concealment package runs $99 per TV. On a mill house or a ranch, the clean play is down, not sideways: drill through the bottom plate behind the TV, drop power and HDMI into the crawl space, staple the run along a joist, and come up behind the console. No wall chases, no visible wire, and the plaster stays untouched. The Piedmont part of the job is real. Red clay under a Kings Mountain house holds moisture for days after rain, so the installer crawls it in coveralls, and every concealed run is CL2-rated jacketed cable with sealed penetrations. In the newer stud-framed builds we fish straight down the wall cavity instead, probing for mid-wall blocking before cutting. The finish either way: flush plates, dressed cables, nothing dangling. Add 45 to 75 minutes.
