Brisbane TVs in New Farm: every week, every wall type
New Farm is one of our busiest suburbs. Between the queenslanders on Brunswick Street, the warehouse conversions backing onto Teneriffe Park, and the riverside mid-rises along Merthyr Road, we’ve installed more than 340 TVs inside 4005 in the last three years alone — which means we’ve seen almost every wall type, ceiling height, and power-point placement a New Farm property can throw at us.
That experience matters because New Farm is a suburb where the wall is usually the hardest part of the job:
- A pre-war queenslander’s VJ tongue-and-groove has studs sitting at unusual spacings (often 450mm, sometimes 600mm, occasionally 300mm when the builder got creative in 1928).
- A converted warehouse’s exposed brick is typically pre-war, lime-mortared brick — which behaves nothing like modern aggregate brick when you drill into it.
- A riverside apartment often has rendered-concrete shear walls that look like plasterboard until you try to drill them.
Our installers handle all three weekly. We turn up with the anchors that actually work for each wall type, not a generic kit.
Access notes for New Farm bookings
A few things worth knowing when you book in New Farm:
Brunswick Street + James Street parking is tight. If you’re on either of these streets please let us know at booking — we’ll bring a second installer purely to manage the drop-off so the install van isn’t blocking traffic.
Riverside apartments (James Street Markets, Teneriffe Woolstores, anything along Merthyr or Moray) usually require a lift-booking and building-manager sign-in. Give us the building name at booking and we’ll arrange both.
Heritage-listed homes (several sections of Moray and Lower Bowen Terrace) sometimes have council restrictions on internal-wall modifications. We can still install — but we’ll call the council heritage officer first on your behalf if we spot anything unusual.
What New Farm customers book most
Wall-mounting is roughly 70% of our New Farm work, with cable concealment added to about half of those jobs. The remaining 30% is split between:
- Soundbar pairing + wall-mount bracket installs (apartments, mostly)
- Old TV removal + recycling (a lot during renovations)
- Multi-room AV setup for restored queenslanders
Whatever wall you’ve got and whatever size TV is sitting in its box in the hallway, we’ll be in and out in a single afternoon. Book below, or call our direct New Farm dispatch line and we’ll slot you into this week’s run.
New Farm install FAQs
Can you mount a TV on a New Farm queenslander's VJ wall?
Yes — VJ (vertical joint) tongue-and-groove walls are one of the most common wall types we see in New Farm. We locate the timber studs behind the VJ, toggle into them with structural screws, and fill any pilot holes with a colour-matched VJ putty before we leave.
Do you handle converted warehouse walls with exposed brick?
Absolutely. Teneriffe and east New Farm have a lot of 1920s warehouse conversions with original structural brick. We use masonry anchors rated for pre-war Australian brick, drill the face of the brick (never the mortar), and colour-match the anchor hole if the bracket ever comes down.
Can you access a riverside apartment on James Street or Merthyr Road?
Yes. We coordinate with building managers for loading-bay access and lift booking ahead of time. Please give us the building name and manager contact when booking so we can schedule it correctly — same-week install is usually still achievable.
How long does a typical New Farm install take?
60–90 minutes for a standard VJ or plasterboard install, 90–120 minutes for a brick feature wall or if the apartment requires lift booking coordination. We always confirm the window at booking.
Do you charge extra for 4005 / inner-city jobs?
No. Our flat-rate pricing is postcode-agnostic. You pay the same for a New Farm install as you would for a Chermside or Mount Gravatt install.
