Paul did a great job mounting our Samsung Frame TV. He was early, but he called to confirm it would be ok. Install looks great and we paid a fair price to have it mounted and the wires hidden, both for the TV and the sound bar. He left the area cleaner than it was when he showed up. Would recommend using Paul and Custom Plasma Install! read more

I reached out for a quote and received very rude and unprofessional responses. Not to mention I received lies. In the very first message, I was told that they price match - but found out that's a lie. I provided custom plasma install with a lower quote from another company and custom plasma install's response was first "we can fix his work." And then when I said, I'm confused (because he didn't answer my question about price matching that) his response was "[competitor] is wrong on his pricing and must be desperate for work." A competitor quote was too low so they resorted to insulting the competitor. I do not want someone like that in my home. read more

There are so many well-reviewed TV installers in the Bay Area -- I would strongly recommend avoiding Paul and this company. Based on my experience, they don't come across as straight shooters or particularly trustworthy. Their rates are also 2 to 2.5 times higher than the next 10 top results on Yelp. Yelp should probably move them lower in their results given how few reviews they received in recent years. When I asked about the price difference, I was told the Frame TV is difficult to install and that they include a "lifetime warranty." The quotes I received from the other installers were all specifically for the frame TV. Reading other reviews on Yelp, it didn't seem like the lifetime warranty carried very much weight with them (Paul and Cary). In the end, the experience felt more like a bait-and-switch than a professional engagement. Maybe the quality of the work would have been fine -- but with so many reputable, fairly priced alternatives in the area, I'd strongly recommend going with someone else. Don't waste your time coordinating with Paul or Cary. I ultimately lost my deposit and could not even report them to the Better Business Bureau because they don't seem to exist outside of Yelp and Nextdoor. read more

This experience was below average. Paul (older gentleman) & a younger gentleman (I think his name was Carey) were the ones that came to mount my TV. My primary complaint is the giant fucking hole they ripped into my wall & the rather shitty spackling job they left behind. See photo. The wall was sheet rock & the shelf was concrete. They made the hole to navigate the wires around the concrete, makes sense. BUT WHY DID THE HOLE HAVE TO BE SO BIG WHEN THE WIRES ARE SO SMALL?? I think because you fucked it up, bro. Also, why did you drill the hole out of the wall in the most random ass place? Not centered with the TV or the other electrical outlets, just randomly floating 3/4 of the way across the TV. It looks so stupid. I'm getting angrier as I think about this but I have to let it go cuz wtf can I do now. I also wanna add my 2 cents about the commentary on the full motion install. They discouraged me from doing it because they didn't think I needed it. Respect your opinion but I want the full motion. They do it. BUT THEN. As they're finishing, Paul says he "would never install this in his own home" & how the attachment is "made in China so you know it's no good." Did you just mount my TV using some piece of shit equipment & then tell me to my face when it's already installed?!!! I'm not Chinese but I'm certain Paul didn't know that. Rude. Anyways. The install was $300 & they were able to do it within 2 days of me reaching out. I think I set the bar too low with that criteria. Carey tried his best to balance out Paul but wow, pretty unpleasant. Mansplain your bullshit somewhere else, racist. But 2 stars cuz my TV IS on the wall so I guess there's that. read more

Custom Plasma Install - I asked & still don't understand why the hole had to be so big WHEN THE WIRES ARE SO SMALL. - Home Theatre Installation Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Paul was great. Came in, assembled my mantle mount (not a small feat...so many pieces, thanks to amazon). Mounted the TV, aligned it with our input and his guidance, and BOOM. I have a beautiful large plasma hung over our fireplace in a house built in SF in 1914. He knew our home like it was his own (having worked with similar homes during his career). We have randomly spaced studs, but he found them easily and knew what to do with its unevenness and the fireplaces' unevenness. Reasonable price; he worked for 3.5 hours on it. read more

Had a TV mounted with no wires visible. Excellent service, patiently explained some tips on how to add cables in the future. Competitive price. read more

Not nearly as a good of an experience second time around. Responds to my email said they can mount a tv and soundbar in my bedroom. Said they will honor the price of our last install. Awesome. Great. Let's do it. He gets here and starts working. While he's working I get an email from him saying he can't honor our original price but will give me $25 off?? Wait. You are here. Maybe you should talk to me not email me and maybe you should discuss that before starting the work. Then when I come up he hasn't mounted the soundbar. Just the TV and said it still cost me the extra $125 even though he didn't mount it - which is supposed to be part of the soundbar fee. When I ask why he said I don't have the mount. When I emailed and asked if I needed to provide the mounts, they responded no. They had them. And now he's saying they only provide the TV mount not the soundbar mount. Why didn't you tell me that so I could have prepared properly? On top of that the sound bar isn't even working!! The TV says it's connected and sound bar is the output but the only way i can hear it is if I connect the two via Bluetooth?? On top of it, not only did they not honor the last price, they increased it by over $160. I really was shocked when he told me the cost. This is the third tv we've had mounted and by far the most expensive. The one downstairs is over a brick fireplace and needed to be wired from the outside and didn't even cost this much. Very disappointed this time around. read more

I highly recommend Custom Plasma Install. Paul promptly responded to my inquiry and knew exactly what he was doing. He was in and out in no time at all. Thank you Paul! read more

Amazing job. Very responsive and extrelmely accomodating! I just got my new Frame TV and was excited to mount it before company came to town. Originally I was told that availabilty was not possible on such notice...checked some other sources and was not impressed by the communication. Reached back out and they were able to fit me in! The job was done just as expected and I was told that it wasn't an easy one either.... Thanks!!! read more

Bottom Line: They will get the job done and it looks professional. Had them install a pull down mantel mount for a 50" plasma tv and soundbar. Thought about going with the monoprice one but as this is our home for the foreseeable future, went with the MantelMount which is a bit pricier but maybe? a bit sturdier (monoprice also comes with a lifetime warranty) and had a little cover plate and soundbar attachment included. Initial contact: Paul was very responsive (and I'd say, efficient) with his emails. Able to make an appointment fairly easily. Install: Came on time, professional and courteous (ie took of their shoes, asked to use the restroom etc) Anyhow, they did a great job installing what looked like a not very straightforward install (ie cutting the holes into the wood paneling but also cutting holes through several studs to get the power/hdmi cables etc out where I wanted them. The finished job looked great with the exception of one of the hdmi cables getting bent due to the angle of insertion, making it nonfunctional. They came out and after taking a look and troubleshooting, have ordered an hdmi switch as it adds more functionality and gets around the considerable hassle of trying to rerun an additional hdmi cable. I took off one star (or 0.5 stars) due to a misunderstanding/miscommunication about the price of the install (due to the soundbar) but Paul was able to compromise so I appreciated that. Also took off 0.5 stars as while it is nice to have the hdmi switch ordered etc, it would have been great having it all set and working from the beginning without the need for a 2nd visit and with the option to add an hdmi switch later on. Credit to them for coming back and being easy to work with to get the problem fixed though. All that being said, they got the job done, were professional/courteous, and couldn't be happier with the functionality and aesthetics of the pull down mount. read more

Before Paul there was another company that came over, drilled some holes, and said they couldn't hide the wires because of my plaster wall and too much solid wood. I'm really glad I reached out to Paul because he did such a great job installing the TV and hiding the wires through the wall. It was a tough install as there was a lot of solid wood to maneuver around. Paul's knowledge came from many places: 1) the thousands of installs 2) when he used to build homes and 3) having been working in the city with old buildings like mine for decades upon decades... proved to be extremely helpful. Paul was also extremely conscientious about the mess as he brought his own vacuum and cleaning kit. I can't recommend Paul enough. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat. He stands by his work with a lifetime warranty! Also, unlike some other companies, he said if he can't do the job, there will be no charge for anything. Want a job done well, with someone that will be efficient due to their experience? Hire Custom Plasma Install. My install looks beautiful. read more

I literally called every single company listed when searching "TV Mounting" in the SF area. Most gave me vague pricing that ranged from $600 - $800. Custom Plasma Install has package pricing to make it easy. I opted for the package that included the mounting of our 82" TV using their bracket and to also hide wires. Total cost was $385. These guys were professional and fast. They even recommended some surround sound systems I could consider in the future. I'll definitely use them again the next time I need mounting for electronics. Check them out. You won't regret it. read more

Had two TVs installed by Paul. Very honest and hardworking man. Showed up early and was very professional. Would give five stars but he missed a stud on one of the walls and now I have a hole in my wall. Also left a good size scratch on my hard wood floor that I think was from his shop vac he carries with him. He also charged a little extra to assemble one of the mounts I had bought myself. Not a big deal but would of been nice to know in the quote request. Overall, the tvs were nicely mounted and I am confident they are secured correctly. I would definitely use his service again and would recommend! read more

Paul's the man to call for TV installation. Very informative of what you need and does not make a mess. He takes care not to damage your house when installing your TV's. He's friendly and his work is backed by a lifetime warranty so if you have problems in the future. You can always reached out to him. He may not respond right away since his services are in need but he will do his best to get back to you within 24hrs. read more

Dear Yelpers, please check the photo I uploaded and attached to my review. Its very clear this guy lies through his skin. After he saw the review he pretended that there was no appointment setup. Sort his reviews by bad rating and see how he responds to his customers. Also go through filtered reviews and read what they say. You dont want such a scheming person handling your precious TV and working in your home. There are many other good TV installers in the area. --------------------------------------------------------------- Update posted on 12/18 after owner posted this: "After doing extensive research through emails. This guy was never scheduled ......... Fake news!! Here is his email, notice no scheduling was ever confirmed" LOL Cannot believe he is calling an email exchange Fake news! More screenshots of emails have been added for proof. After I confirmed the time with him he asked me for my phone number and address. He further states that when he spoke to me it was for a job in San Mateo. Actually, when I called him he even confirmed that this 11-1 job was in Cupertino and since its not yet 1 he is not yet late. Unfortunately I am not in habit of recording calls. If he has proof against this would be happy if he can share it. Also BTW from the text exchange I posted earlier you can see that he had sent me his email address. He did that so that I can EMAIL him and schedule an appointment. So there is no question of me not scheduling via yelp messages. Also someone with Yelp handle (Allison J.) is threatening me with legal action for posting a bad review :). Do you really want to take services from such people? This guy is so untrustworthy that he will break your TV in front of you and then say that it was broken when he came and require that you show proof that it was indeed not broken. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. read more

We needed our new TV installed. I found Custom Plasma Install here on Yelp. I got a price quote via the app and easily scheduled an installation date. I was truly grateful they could schedule us on short notice. Installation went smoothly and a huge bonus is that they clean up after themselves. They also suggested that the TV be mounted lower and adjusted the sound on the receiver which made a tremendous difference with the theater experience. Paul and his fellow installer were friendly and professional. Highly recommended. read more

These guys did an AMAZING job. I reached out as we bought a new house and mounted our TV over our fireplace, but needed help running the wires through the walls. After much research, I knew I needed professionals. They quickly responded (at 2/3rds the price of other similar companies) and offered a Saturday morning appointment that same week. They showed up right on time and were in and out in under an hour. Not only did they do an amazing job (see picture!), they also remounted the TV a few inches lower than originally mounted at no additional cost as they suggested my original mounting location was too high. Very impressed at how professional they were, the tools they used, the efficiency, and cost. Would highly recommend!!! read more

Paul and his crew arrived on time (a bit early even) this Sunday morning and mounted my 65" TV and Sonos playbar with everything inside the walls. They encountered a difficult issue that they'd never seen before (my walls had metal and 2 layers of sheetrock in addition to a cross stud where we wanted to run the wire) but they found out how to make it work and did a perfect job! Very happy with the work. They also vacuum while drilling so you're not left with a mess. read more

Custom Plasma Install - All done! Just need to get a media cabinet to put in front of it. Had 3 HDMI and an ethernet cable pulled through. - Home Theatre Installation Near Me - Orlando, Florida

These guys are awesome! I hired these guys to install a 60 inch tv above my fireplace. I was thinking about doing it myself but I realized it was stone tiles above my fireplace. I had no idea where the studs were..... They showed up and took off their shoes on their own and got to work! The process took longer than expected but they got the job done!. In the beginning it wasn't looking like it was going to be possible to mount the TV. Hard to drill through the stone and there is a power outlet that wasn't recessed.... The power outlet limited where the mount could be placed... The people that built the place had the right idea but didn't quite make it easy for mounting a TV.... In the end it looked amazing! They even cleaned up well and made sure the TV was fingerprint free before they left! read more

Custom Plasma Install did a fantastic job putting our 47" on the wall. The installation was a little tricky because there was some hardwood custom cabinetry and extra sheet rock in the way, but for Paul and his crew it was no worry. Hiding the wires is totally, completely worth the investment. Paul showed up right on time and took off the shoes without even asking! Our only gripe is that our TV ended up looking too small! But Paul will change the TV out when we buy a larger one at NO CHARGE. Very responsive to emails and phone calls. Works with your schedule. Highly recommended. read more

Highly recommend using this company to install and mount your tv. Paul is very professional, knowledgeable, efficient, and accommodating, as he is willing to work with your schedule and always on time. I originally hired Best Buy's GeekSquad to mount my tv. BIG MISTAKE! However, they said the mount was too complicated and I was left with two holes in my wall with wires hanging below the tv. They recommended I hire an electrician. In a panic, I searched for another solution and I was referred to Custom Plasma Install by a neighbor. Although this was not the easiest install because of the wiring situation, Paul figured it out and made it work! He also moved the tv down to a recommended height, as it was too high when initially installed by the GeekSquad. When Paul and his son came for the second install in our bedroom (less than a week later), they were respectful of COVID, wearing their masks, taking their shoes off before entering the home, and listened intently on how I wanted our tv mounted in the bedroom. I wish more companies operated like Paul and his team! Never again will I use the GeekSquad, as it was total amateur hour. Custom Plasma Install is the way to go! Thank you Paul!! read more

Just like most other reviews, Paul and his son arrived on time, were very polite, and installed the TV quickly. Minus 1 star as I noticed that my TV is tilting forward, even though a flat mount was used. The box that the mount came in was actually rated for a smaller sized TV. I email Paul, but it took a few emails to get a response. The followup time is taking longer than I had expected, but we are now trying to set a time for him to come by and have a look. I'll be updating this review after he comes by to assess the situation. read more

The best. We initially hired a handyman to install our flat screen TV above our fireplace and it was a MESS. I literally could not watch TV because I got stressed out by all the wires and the mounting job was pretty terrible. I emailed Paul a photo of the atrocity and he was able to come by that very weekend (he was equally horrified). He remounted our TV, hid all the wiring and then also mounted a second TV for us in the Master and in addition to hiding the wiring, moved the cable box to our closet. Worth noting they have a ton of equipment and tools so if for whatever reason you need a new or different mount, they will likely have it. They also deduct for existing equipment. So professional and efficient. We're hiring them again to install another TV (yes, I know but this way I can finally watch House Hunters in peace ;) read more

Custom Plasma Install did an excellent job installing our 52" LCD and surround sound system -- we are so pleased! We spent a lot of time searching for the best TV installation services in the City, and the reviews on Paul and his team are totally accurate. I have to echo all of the 5 star ratings on here, and feel confident that these guys do great work each and every time. We did not have an easy job. Our fireplace has a high mantle and wiring access is tricky. These guys had everything figured out, and were able to work around our difficult set up with finesse. Clear differentiators for these guys are: * Great communicators (easy to set up an appt.), * Attention to detail (installation symmetry & balance, patching up and painting wire entry holes), * Including supplies in the installation price (various types of mounts and necessary cables are baked in and takes out the guess work for the customer), * Professional and courteous. We had a unique situation where the original "non-tilt" bracket didn't meet our needs. Paul and team were back promptly to install a "tilt" bracket (at no additional cost). It speaks volumes when independent installers are accountable for their work and promptly rise to the occasion to make things "right," so the customer is satisfied. read more

After buying a 65" Samsung LED, I found myself in a dilemma. Who do I hire to mount my TV?! I looked on Yelp, read numerous reviews, looked at several pictures; and I then decided to go with Custom Plasma Install. I emailed Paul and got a near instantaneous response regarding pricing and setting up and appointment. I scheduled an appointment for this past Sunday, the 24th, and Paul gave me a call and said he was ahead of schedule and was going to come early. AWESOME! So Paul shows up, takes off his shoes, comes into my house and discusses options and placement. Paul gets to work (by himself) and asks me for help to get the TV on the mount. And it looks PERFECT! Wires hidden, TV level, no debris. Paul and I then discussed mounting another TV in my bedroom and he mentions a "repeat customer discount". Count me in. Thanks Paul! read more

Custom Plasma does excellent work. Ordinarily, drilling and mounting is the sort of thing I'd take on on my own, but I had two TVs that I wanted mounted into a brick wall and felt that the complication of brick pushed it outside of my abilities. Paul was very responsive to messages. We quickly set up an appointment which they were on time to. While on site, they speedily, but carefully drilled the brick for bracket mounting and cleaned up the dusty mess as they went. They also are able to supply and recommend a wide range of bracket types if you don't know where to start. If you need a TV mounted in SF, this is the place to go. read more

Incredibly happy with the service I received today. Paul scheduled me within 4 days of my initial call. I usually go to my contractor or handyman for something like this, but we purchased the Frame and I just wanted to make sure it was done correctly the first time. I had a bunch of questions prior to install and Paul answered each and every one of them. He arrived on time and I let him work his magic while I worked downstairs. When he was done, everything was just perfect. The TV was level, he helped me with all the settings and made sure everything was in working order before he left. I couldn't recommend him more highly. read more
