Hi all,
I wonder if any one in the know can give me a bit of advice regarding mounting a flat screen tv on a wall. The house we live in is a pre 1940's house that has a brick outer and plaster board stub walls as an interior - well if you can call them stub walls. The plasterboard seems to be studded to the wall in 1 foot intervals along the outer edge of the wall and hollow in the center. We're wanting to mount our tv on the chimney breast, but tapping on the plasterboard to see where it's hollow makes it seem as though there's not a lot of brickwork and this only seems to be around where the actual fire is. Is there a way to get it up there without having to cut a large chunk out of the wall to add a support baton? Or is this going to be the only way seeing as there may not be a lot of brick work up top to fasten the wall mount to?
Any advice would be appreciated.
