TV wall-mounted with all cables completely hidden inside the wall. Channels chased, cables concealed, filled and plastered smooth. The ultimate clean look - no visible wires at all.
The Truly Clean Look
Standard TV mounting is fine - but you still see cables hanging down. Cable hiding takes it to the next level - genuinely invisible wiring, like the TV is magically floating on your wall.
💡 Pro tip: If you're doing this, consider adding a new power socket behind the TV at the same time. Then literally nothing is visible - not even the power cable. Needs an electrician but worth it for the clean finish.
How Cable Hiding Works
| ✅ Professional Hide | ❌ Surface Trunking |
|---|---|
| Cables actually in the wall | Plastic channel stuck on wall surface |
| Invisible once painted | Always visible, collects dust |
| Permanent, clean solution | Temporary bodge, comes unstuck |
| Can't see or feel anything | Bumps out from wall |
The process:
- Chase channels in the wall (from TV to sockets/devices)
- Run cables through the channels
- Fill and plaster smooth over cables
- You paint to match your wall colour

What to Expect
Step 1: Plan the Route
We work out the best path for cables - from TV position down to where your devices/sockets are. I'll check for obstacles like pipes or existing cables in the wall.
Step 2: Chase & Mount
I cut channels in the wall for cables, mount the TV bracket securely, and run all wiring through the concealed routes.
Step 3: Fill & Finish
Cables go in the channels, then I fill and plaster everything smooth. Once you paint over it, the cables are completely invisible.

Good to Know
> 🎨 **About to decorate?** Perfect timing for cable hiding. The plasterwork needs painting anyway, so factor this into your decorating schedule. The plaster needs 24-48 hours to dry before painting. **Need power hidden too?** A socket behind the TV means truly zero visible cables. This needs an electrician (I can arrange or you can use your own). Adds to cost but looks incredible - worth doing while the wall's already being worked on. **What about HDMI cables?** All cables can be hidden - HDMI, power, aerial, whatever you need. Just make sure you buy good quality cables for in-wall use - cheap ones can degrade and you don't want to redo the work. **Exeter's old solid walls?** Take longer to chase than plasterboard, but the result is rock solid. The thick stone/brick walls actually make cleaner channels than modern builds.
Frequently Asked Questions about TV wall mounting with cable hide in Honiton
How do you hide the cables?
I chase channels in your wall from the TV down to where your devices sit, run the cables through, then fill and plaster over. Once you paint it, you genuinely can't tell the cables are there. It's much cleaner than those plastic trunking covers.
Can you do this on any wall?
Most walls yes - solid walls, plasterboard, even old lath and plaster. The exception is if you've got exterior walls with cavity insulation, or walls with lots of pipework/cables already in them. I'll assess and advise honestly.
Do I need to redecorate after?
You'll need to paint over the filled channels to match your wall - I can't match your exact paint colour. The plasterwork is smooth and ready for painting, but the actual decorating is down to you (or your decorator).
What about power - does the TV plug in behind itself?
Ideally we fit a new socket behind where the TV will sit, so power is hidden too. That needs an electrician though - I can arrange this or you can use your own. Alternatively, power can run through the same chase as the other cables.
How long does it take with cable hiding?
Usually 2-3 hours depending on wall type and cable run length. Solid walls take longer to chase than plasterboard. I'm careful to minimise dust, but there will be some from cutting the channels.
