Who installs in the Triangle
Express Mounting dispatches Raleigh and Durham jobs to installers from its vetted Triangle network, after taking the booking and setting the schedule. There is no Raleigh office. Coverage takes in Wake, Durham, Orange, Johnston, Franklin and Granville counties.

Triangle walls: brick veneer and small-town plaster
Newer Triangle houses are brick veneer, vinyl or fiber-cement over wood studs, a plain stud install with no surcharge. What sets the area apart is how many old small-town cores it takes in, and plaster turns up in nearly every one of them.
- Brick veneer over wood studs No surcharge
- Subdivisions and new tract: Wake Forest, Garner, Knightdale, Clayton, Rolesville and the newer parts of Chapel Hill.
- How it is mounted: Mounted on the inside face of the wall, with the bracket in the studs behind the drywall.
- Brick and stone veneer, explained
- Plaster and lath No surcharge
- Older houses in Durham's pre-war neighborhoods, Chapel Hill, Carrboro and Hillsborough, and in the old cores of Smithfield, Selma, Louisburg, Franklinton and Zebulon.
- How it is mounted: Studs located first, since plaster fools most stud finders, then lag bolts into them.
- Finding studs behind plaster
- Solid brick +$99 masonry surcharge
- Durham's tobacco-warehouse lofts, where the walls are brick and heavy timber.
- How it is mounted: Masonry anchors in the brick face or the mortar joint, whichever lines up with the mount's holes.
- Drilling brick safely
The oldest houses stand in colonial and 1800s county seats such as Hillsborough, Louisburg and Smithfield. Then come the 1880s-1930s tobacco, mill and rail towns, and the growth since the 1990s has turned crossroads like Rolesville and Archer Lodge into new-build towns.

Triangle TV mounting questions
- How much does TV mounting cost in Raleigh?
- Labor is $129 up to 54 inches, $159 for 55-69 inches, $209 for 70-79 inches, $299 for 80-99 inches and $399 for 100 inches and up, the same in Durham and Chapel Hill. Our brackets are optional. A small job looks like this: a 43-inch bedroom TV on our flat bracket comes to $129 + $49 = $178.
- Who installs in Raleigh and Durham?
- Installers from the vetted Triangle network that Express Mounting dispatches. The price list, the scheduling and the 3-year workmanship warranty are Express Mounting's.
- Can you mount a TV in a Durham warehouse loft?
- Yes. A brick wall takes masonry anchors in the brick face or the mortar joint, whichever lines up with the mount's holes, and carries the $99 surcharge.
- Does plaster in an older house cost more?
- No. Plaster and lath take longer, because the studs have to be found with a magnet or a small test hole rather than an electronic finder, but the price is the same as drywall.
- Is same-day available in Johnston and Franklin counties?
- Yes. Clayton, Smithfield, Louisburg and Youngsville are on the same schedule as Raleigh. A before-noon booking gets a same-day slot, and arrival is typically 2-4 hours after confirmation.
