Expert Data Point Relocation Chermside & TV Mounting

Is there anything more annoying than buying a sleek, modern flat-screen TV, only to have the look completely ruined by a tangle of black cords hanging down the wall? It’s a common frustration: you want the “floating” cinema look, but your power and data points are right near the skirting board, leaving you with unsightly “cable spaghetti.”

Beyond the aesthetics, exposed cables can be a hazard for pets and children. This was the exact issue a homeowner in Chermside wanted to resolve. They wanted a clean, wireless finish for their entertainment areas but needed professional help to move the infrastructure behind the screens. They called the team at Fallon Solutions for expert Data Point Relocation Chermside.

The Problem: The “Cable Spaghetti” Look

The customer loved their TVs but hated the setup. In the lounge room, the television was mounted on the wall, but the power, antenna, and internet cables were draped down the wall to plug into low-level sockets.

In the bedroom, they had a 32-inch TV they wanted mounted, but again, the room wasn’t set up for it.

While on-site, our electrician also conducted a general check and noticed a few hidden issues that the homeowner wasn’t aware of:

• Failing Switches: The light switches in the bedrooms and bathrooms were “spongy” or hard to press—a tell-tale sign that the internal mechanisms (“mechs”) were wearing out and could soon fail or spark.
• AC Maintenance: The air conditioning units were due for a clean, potentially affecting air quality and efficiency.

The customer needed a comprehensive solution: relocating a power point and data cables to hide them, mounting a new screen, and ensuring the home’s electrical safety.

The Solution: A Seamless, Wire-Free Finish

Our licensed electrician provided a complete “rough-in and fit-off” service to transform the look of the home.

Here is how we achieved the clean, modern finish:

1. Data Point and Cabling Relocation In the lounge, we performed a precise data point relocation. We moved the internet data point and the TV antenna cabling from the skirting board level to a new position directly behind the wall-mounted TV. This ensures the smart TV has a hardwired internet connection (which is faster and more stable than Wi-Fi) without a single visible cable.
2. Relocating Power Points To complete the “floating” look, we moved the General Power Outlet (GPO). By relocating a power point to sit flush behind the TV bracket, the television can be plugged in securely without dragging extension cords across the floor.
3. Bedroom TV Wall Mounting In the bedroom, we installed the customer-supplied bracket and securely mounted their 32-inch TV. We also installed customer-supplied power points to ensure the setup matched the room’s aesthetic.
4. Mandatory Safety Testing Electrical work isn’t just about looks; it’s about safety. Once the installation was done, we performed a comprehensive electrical inspection and testing as per AS3000:2018 (The Australian Wiring Rules). This ensures every new point is earthed correctly and safe to use.
5. Proactive Maintenance Advice We believe in looking after the whole home. We advised the customer on the failing switch mechanisms in the bathroom and bedrooms, providing options for replacement before they became a hazard. We also arranged for our specialist A/C team to contact the customer regarding an intensive service for their multi-head air conditioning system.

The Benefits: Safety, Style, and Stability

The result for this Chermside home was an instant upgrade in both style and function. The benefits included:

• A Clean Aesthetic: No more ugly wires. The lounge and bedroom now look professionally finished and clutter-free.
• Better Connectivity: Hardwired data points behind the TV mean buffering-free streaming for movies and sports.
• Electrical Safety: By conducting mandatory testing and identifying the failing switches, we helped the owner prevent potential electrical faults.
• One-Stop Convenience: The customer didn’t need to hire a separate handyman, electrician, and data cabler. We handled the mounting, the wiring, and the referrals for the A/C all in one go.
