Can you hide the cables in the wall?

On plasterboard, almost always. On brick or concrete, we use trunking instead — neat but not invisible.

What size TV can a Bondi apartment plasterboard wall hold?

Up to ~75" with proper fixings into studs. Heavier than that, we anchor through to the masonry behind.

Will you mount a TV I bought online?

Yes — bring it out of the box and have the bracket ready. We supply standard brackets if needed.

Waverley context

What tv wall mounting looks like in Waverley

On Waverley's Edwardian semis, you'll regularly find solid sandstock brick on shared party walls and lath-and-plaster on internal partitions — the bracket strategy depends entirely on which side of the room the TV is going. Sandstock is brittle and needs slow-drill technique with chemical anchors; the lath-and-plaster needs through-fixing to studs with a backing plate. Inter-war double-brick (post-1920s) is friendlier — standard 8mm masonry anchors hold fine, but you still want to avoid the perpend joints, which crumble.

Recent: 65" Bravia mounted on a sandstock party wall in a Birrell Street Edwardian semi. Chemical anchors set with a 24-hour cure before the bracket went up; cable run via an existing chase to the floor below. Two visits to do it right rather than gambling on a one-day install.
