TV Mounting and Home Theaters

TV Mounting
Your new TV deserves better than a DIY bracket and visible cables. Our professional TV mounting service will safely mount flat-screen and large-format televisions on most surfaces, conceal all wiring, and configure your remotes and streaming devices so everything works together for immediate enjoyment. We assess your wall structure, identify ideal viewing height and angle, and consider special needs for secure installation and use—in your bedroom, living room, or above your fireplace. Every installation includes tv mounting with wire concealment for a clean, finished look.
Custom TV and Home Theater Installation
Choose BOTH high-end interior design and optimal TV viewing. A beautifully-designed room shouldn’t compromise your TV viewing experience—and a big screen doesn’t have to overwhelm a beautifully-designed room. Our custom TV mounting solutions can integrate your television into your room design or make it available on demand. As an authorized MantelMount Pro dealer, we install motorized pull-down mounts that lower, tilt, and swivel to eye level for comfortable viewing, then retract flush to preserve the clean lines of your space. The MM860 even integrates with your smart home automation for silent, one-touch control. Learn more about designing one-touch, on-demand environments with Home Automation.
Home Theater Design
Turn an underused room or boring basement into the home theater you always wanted. We design and build complete theater spaces that relax and entertain—including 4K displays or projector-and-screen setups, surround sound configured to your room’s acoustics, theater seating, smart lighting control, and concealed wiring. Make sure your vision becomes a perfect reality with our virtual reality design tool—step into your future theater to confirm perfect sightlines and audio from every seat. Have high ceilings? Consider a golf simulator with interactive entertainment options for an ultimate media space.

Outdoor TV & Audio Installation
Extend your living area to your patio, deck, or pool with outdoor television and speaker options. Outdoor-specific TVs are built to handle sun, rain, humidity, and temperature extremes; they have up to 6x the brightness of indoor models so you get a clear picture even in direct sunlight. We’ll help you choose the right outdoor TV for your environment, select the best mounting option, choose speakers and design sound zones, and conceal the low voltage wiring you’ll need to keep everything running fast and clear—as well as extending your outdoor WiFi to keep everyone connected. Host game-day parties, family movie nights, or just enjoy your favorite shows in the open air.
Smart Home Automation
Imagine controlling your lights, shades, audio, video, security, locks, and climate from a single touchscreen, remote, or voice command—or letting pre-programmed routines handle it all for you, whether you’re home or away. Our smart home automation services connect devices into one seamless system that you can manage from anywhere. Revelation AV & Automation designs, purchases, delivers, installs, programs, and maintains smart home systems for Northern Virginia, DC, and Maryland homeowners. Design the lifestyle you desire, consult your interior designer to keep your aesthetic, and let us integrate technology that disappears into your home until the moment you need it.

Outdoor Lighting Design
Are you placing (and replacing) cheap garden lights that offer nothing more than a simple spotlight or runway effect? Professional outdoor lighting design goes beyond basic illumination—
- Make your landscape and hardscape glow, highlighting architecture, stonework, trees, walkways, and outdoor living spaces with warm, layered light.
- Light up stairways, walkways, driveways, and entries for safety on dark mornings and nights.
- Program your lighting to follow a schedule and/or for on-demand control during darker winter months, outdoor entertainment, and travel schedules.
Revelation AV & Automation designs, installs, and programs custom outdoor lighting solutions around beautiful homes from Alexandria to Ashburn to Baltimore. Our technicians are trained in best-in-class Garden Light LED fixtures, powered by low-voltage wiring for safety and efficiency.

Upgrade Your Cabling and WiFi
Every service on this page—your flat-screen, projection TV or home theater, whole-home audio, smart home automation, outdoor lighting, and outdoor entertainment—is limited by the low-voltage wiring that’s in your walls. Outdated wiring and weak WiFi are the most common reasons new technology underperforms. If your home still runs on coaxial or Cat5 cable, you’ll notice that your streaming buffers, your smart home programs lag, your security cameras lose their views, and your family fights for bandwidth.
Let our techs assess your entire home network—cabling, connections, routers, and access points—and upgrade what’s needed so every device in every room and across your yard runs at full speed. Whether that means running Cat6 or fiber-optic through your walls, adding access points to eliminate dead zones with professional WiFi optimization, or designing a complete home automation network to support your smart home system, we build the invisible infrastructure that makes everything else work.
Planning a renovation or addition? That’s the perfect time to upgrade—we work with your contractor to get the right cabling in place before the drywall goes up, saving you the cost and disruption of tearing into finished walls later.
Tim and his team from Revelation AV added Ethernet wiring to my whole house. The service and experience were awesome! They were knowledgeable and thorough. They arrived on time and completed the task on time. The finished work was excellent.
