Why won't Best Buy or a handyman run the power cord through the wall for you?
Can you hide both the power cable and the HDMI cables, or just the signal wires?
Will the installer cut into your drywall, and how big are the openings?
Can wires be hidden in the wall on a brick, concrete, or plaster wall?
What's the difference between in-wall hiding and a surface cord cover?

Trusted by homeowners, condo owners, and renters across Silver Spring, SureGrip has built its reputation on consistent quality. You're not getting a random installer from an app, you're hiring proven local pros.

The wires are what separate a professional install from a DIY one. We route your HDMI and low-voltage cables down through the wall cavity and install a code-compliant in-wall power system, so both your cables and your power are completely hidden. The finished result looks like a clean recessed outlet sitting neatly behind your TV, not a tangle of cords running down the wall.
Here's the part most people don't know: it's against electrical code (NEC) to run a standard power cord inside a wall, the flexible cord isn't rated for in-wall use and is a genuine fire risk, which is why big-box installers refuse to do it. We use a proper in-wall power kit instead. A discreet powered outlet is set into the wall directly behind your TV and connected through the wall to your existing outlet below, so your TV simply plugs in behind the screen with nothing visible.
Silver Spring is a real mix, and we work all of it: the brick colonials and plaster homes of East Silver Spring, Woodside, and Four Corners, the condos around the AFI Silver Theatre and Ellsworth Place, and the metal-stud high-rises rising across the Ripley District and Downtown.
It’s not just about looks. Professional wire hiding offers several big benefits:
Low-voltage in the wall: Your HDMI, Ethernet, and other signal cables are rated for in-wall use, so they route cleanly down through the wall cavity.
Power done to code: We install a proper in-wall power kit that feeds a recessed outlet behind your TV from your existing wall outlet, never a standard cord stuffed in the wall, which violates code.
A clean recessed look: The finished install looks like a tidy outlet plate behind the TV, no dangling cords and nothing for the eye to catch.
No drywall repair needed: The system installs through small, purpose-made openings the cover plates conceal completely, so there is no patching, sanding, or repainting your wall afterward.
Drywall and plaster ready: These walls are ideal for in-wall routing, and we check for fire blocks, studs, and existing wiring before we ever cut.
Brick or concrete option: Solid walls can't be opened the same way, so for those we conceal the cables in a slim white surface channel instead.
Behind your drywall there can be fire blocks, existing wiring, plumbing, or insulation, any of which can snag a cable or force an unsafe path, and drilling blindly risks hitting a live wire. We detect what's behind the wall first, route cleanly around obstacles, and install a listed in-wall power kit that meets code. Because the system uses finished cover plates at each opening, your wall looks intentional and complete the moment we're done, with no patching or paint touch-ups left for you. The result is the true floating-TV look, done safely and backed by our guarantee.

Nothing says professional like a mounted TV with absolutely no visible wires. By routing your cables through the wall and powering the screen from a recessed in-wall outlet, we deliver the clean, floating look you see in design magazines. In a Silver Spring living room, whether a downtown condo or a home near Sligo Creek, it's the detail that makes the whole install look custom and built-in.

This is where we differ from a quick handyman job. Running a standard power cord inside the wall violates electrical code and is a genuine fire hazard, which is why we install a proper in-wall power kit instead: a recessed outlet behind the TV, fed safely from your existing wall outlet. You get hidden power that's fully to code, the part most installers skip because it takes real expertise.

Because the system uses purpose-made openings with finished cover plates, your wall looks complete the moment we're done. There's no drywall to patch, no sanding, and no repainting left for you. The result looks like your Silver Spring home simply has a tidy outlet behind the TV, exactly the clean, low-fuss finish you want.
In-wall cable routing: We route your HDMI and other low-voltage cables down through the wall cavity so not a single signal wire is visible.
Code-compliant in-wall power kit: A recessed outlet is set behind your TV and powered from your existing wall outlet, so the power cord is hidden and fully to code.
A clean recessed finish: Finished cover plates conceal each opening, so the wall looks like it simply has a tidy outlet behind the TV, with no holes to patch or paint.
Obstacle and live-wire detection: We check for studs, fire blocks, plumbing, and existing wiring before we cut, so the job is safe from the first hole.

Not a standard power cord, that violates the National Electrical Code and is a fire hazard because the cord isn't rated for in-wall use. The legal, safe method is a UL-listed in-wall power kit: a recessed outlet behind the TV connected to your existing lower outlet. We install one on every in-wall job. Low-voltage cables like HDMI are fine to run in the wall.
Because doing it with a standard cord is a code violation and a liability, so they leave the power cord exposed and only hide the HDMI. We do it correctly with a code-compliant power kit, so the power is hidden too.
Solid brick and concrete can't be opened up like drywall, so for those we use a slim white surface channel that conceals the cables cleanly along the wall. For drywall and plaster, full in-wall routing is the way to go.
Yes, SureGrip is fully insured on every Silver Spring job, and every install carries a 90-day workmanship guarantee. If we are more than 15 minutes late without calling first, you get $25 off.
