Hire a professional home theater service near you

When you book a home theatre specialist through Airtasker, you can find various experts who’ll help you design, install, or improve your home cinema. They’ll usually assess the room you want to work with, mount the audio or video equipment, run wires, arrange to seat, and check to see that the audio and video quality are good from any seat in the house! 

While your specific needs may determine the kind of Tasker you get (as well as their process), you can typically expect the following services from a local home theatre expert:

Display device installation

Whether you’re using an LCD TV, curved TV, or a projector and screen, you can find a theatre expert who’ll help you out. Usually, they’ll mount the display device onto the wall, then connect it to your audio system and playback devices such as your laptop or DVD player. After this, they’ll configure the display device’s settings and hide any unsightly wires.

Audio system installation

When you hire an audio system installer, you can expect a Tasker who’ll connect them to the rest of your entertainment system and do the necessary configurations. Usually, this process involves mounting the speakers and positioning them so that they provide an immersive viewing or listening experience.  

If you plan on using a soundbar instead of (or in addition to) your speaker system, the Tasker will help pick out the best location for it, too. Lastly, the audio installer works to hide any wires that could cause injury or take away from the pristine home cinema experience.  

Home cinema design and installation

Home cinema design specialists consider the size and materials in the room you have and think of ways to transform it into the home theatre of your dreams. This process involves picking out furniture, painting the walls to enhance the audio-visual experience, picking out appropriate flooring (usually carpeting or area rugs). 

They may also add lighting elements to mimic the look of a cinema, though this can also depend on the size of the room and your personal taste. 

Receiver installation

This process usually includes connecting dozens of cables and wires to the receivers and making sure everything works. First, the Tasker picks out a good place for the receiver - usually a well-ventilated area that lets you access any cables easily. 

Next, the home cinema installer connects the receiver to your internet, speakers, television, DVD players, and other devices. Finally, they’ll check to see if everything is in working order.  

Installing surge protectors

A local home theatre expert can usually put up surge protectors to safeguard your expensive gadgets from electric surges. Doing this extends the lifespan of your TV, speaker system, and other electronics. If ever you can’t find a home cinema installer who can do this for you, use Airtasker to find a nearby electrician instead. 

Once you’re done with your home theatre installation, it’s time to kick back and try it out! So choose a film, order a pizza, and enjoy your new home cinema!
