We don't hang TVs. We finish the part of the build the builder forgot.
The GC leaves, the designer leaves, the painters leave — and the one thing that ruins the room is still there: a tangle of cables and a power strip on the floor. We fix that. Quietly. Cleanly. Once.
Four problems. One call.
Pick your problem. We show up with the tools, the training, and the obsessive attention to detail your house deserves.

“After my description of the situation, Demarkuss immediately identified his suspicion of the cause, quoted me a very fair price, and went to work. His analysis was spot on. I give Demarkuss the highest recommendation.”

Built by DeMarkuss Day — low-voltage contractor since 2009.
DeMarkuss started pulling commercial cable through hotels and office towers in 2009 — the infrastructure behind the walls. By 2012 he founded Cognito Media Services to bring that commercial discipline into Dallas homes. Every install is led or inspected by him personally.

What people ask us before they call.
What does Cognito Media Services do?
Cognito Media Services is a Dallas–Fort Worth technology integration company that installs TVs, home theaters, smart home automation, and hardwired security cameras. We also install Sonos, Ring, Nest, Yale smart locks, outdoor audio, and commercial A/V systems.
Where is Cognito Media Services located?
Our shop is at 12100 Ford Rd, Dallas, TX 75234. We serve the full Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, including Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Highland Park, Southlake, Richardson, Allen, Prosper, Celina, and Colleyville.
How much does TV mounting cost in Dallas?
Basic TV wall mounting starts at $99. Flush installs with in-wall cable concealment on drywall are typically $149–$249. Stone, brick, or fireplace mounts run $299–$599 depending on the surface and the length of cable routing.
Can you mount a TV on a stone or brick fireplace?
Yes — fireplace mounts are one of our specialties. We drill into stone, brick, and tile with masonry bits, route the cables inside the wall (not through a surface kit), and use mounts rated for the heat profile above a working firebox.
Do you install Ring, Sonos, Apple Home, and Google Home?
Yes. We install Ring doorbells and cameras, Sonos multi-room audio, and set everything up on Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, or Home Assistant — whichever hub your family already uses. We also install Ecobee and Nest thermostats, Yale and Schlage smart locks, Philips Hue and Lutron Caseta lighting, and Ubiquiti mesh WiFi to tie it all together.
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
Yes. We hold a Texas low-voltage contractor license, are bonded, and carry $2M in general liability plus workers comp. Every install includes a written labor warranty.
How long does a typical TV or smart home install take?
Most single-TV installs take 1–3 hours. A multi-TV home with Sonos and security cameras is usually a single full day. Full smart home automation or home theater builds are scoped by room and completed in 1–5 days.
How fast can you come out for a quote?
We respond to quote requests within 24 hours and most Dallas-area consultations can be scheduled same-day or next-day. Call 469-970-6943 for the fastest turnaround.
