We do repairs in Sant Josep. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and get started. A poorly installed articulating bracket is the primary cause of falling TVs in homes. The articulating arm amplifies the leverage effect when the TV tilts or swivels. If the wall anchor is marginal, the actual weight exerted on the fixing can triple at maximum extension. That's why we always look for metal studs behind plasterboard or a concrete pillar. We never anchor an articulating arm to just plasterboard or hollow brick.

The optimal screen centre height is 1.10-1.20 metres from the floor when viewed from a seated position on a sofa. For walkways or kitchens, 1.40-1.60 m. We measure it before marking. IKEA is by far the most requested. Their furniture is reasonably well-designed, instructions are clear (though without text, with universal drawings). Components fit together precisely when assembled correctly. The most common mistake is overtightening the plastic cam screws, which break and require replacement. The correct technique is to tighten by hand until it stops and then give only half a turn more with a screwdriver, not an electric one. When the model requires it, secure wall anchoring with appropriate wall plugs for the material.
The first mistake is using a standard wall drill bit on tiles. The tip slips and cracks the tile. You need to use a ceramic drill bit with a diamond tip. The second mistake is using a hammer drill on tiles. The vibrations crack the tile from within, and fine cracks appear weeks later. You must drill without percussion. The third mistake is not marking the centre correctly. A pencil mark on masking tape around the spot prevents the drill bit from slipping. For small pictures up to 2 kg, a picture hook or nail is sufficient on most walls except tiles and plasterboard. For medium pictures from 2 to 8 kg, a material-specific wall plug with a 4-5 mm screw. For large pictures and mirrors up to 15 kg, a reinforced wall plug and a 6 mm screw. For LCD TV mounts up to 50 inches and 25 kg actual weight including mount weight, two anchor points to studs or a pillar with an 8 mm screw. Hollow brick is the most common material for interior partitions and non-load-bearing walls. It is reasonably easy to drill, but the problem is that the wall plug can fall into the inner cavity of the brick if it enters between two walls. To avoid this, we use special wall plugs that expand inside the void. For medium loads, this works well. For heavy loads, it's better to find the nearest pillar.
The price of repairs in Sant Josep usually ranges between €162 and €2025. The final figure depends on the condition of the property, the materials, and the working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. Approximately 60-90 minutes including positioning, marking, drilling, fixing, and cleaning. We provide a fixed cost for the batch. If the fixing gives way, we return free of charge to reinforce it. Wall plugs are calculated with a safety margin.
