Why hire a projector installation specialist through Airtasker?

Getting your projector and screen installed usually means waiting for a guy from the store to stop by and do it for you, or learning to do it yourself (thanks, Wikihow and Youtube). But what if we told you that these aren’t the only ways to get your home theatre up and running? That there’s a way that’s more reliable and affordable than the appliance store installer, and safer than a DIY job?

On our platform, you can book a trusted projector specialist in minutes, and have your appointment ASAP! First, select the “Post a task” button on this page. Specify your request - the type of projector you have, the size of your screen and the room you want to put it in, your location, budget, and desired appointment date. Once you’re done filling out the form, tap “Get quotes” and wait for offers.

Take your pick based on the Taskers’ rates and customer reviews. When you’re ready, tap to confirm your appointment and voila! You’re all set. Ready to complete your projector set up? Book a Tasker near you today!

Top Projector Installation related questions

No, you don’t have to provide any tools or equipment. When you book on our platform, your chosen installer arrives with all the necessary tools (and skills) for setting up your home cinema screen. All you need to do is point to the projector, the screen, and where you want everything mounted. Your Tasker then takes care of everything else. 

A projector fitting service usually takes 2-6 hours, depending on whether the cables need to be built into the wall. To get an estimate for your particular project, we recommend that you ask your Tasker. Once they assess the components you have, as well as your space, they’ll be able to give a more accurate timeline for the installation work.

You can request a Tasker specifically for mounting your speakers, but they may require another handyman for a massive set-up. If you want one person to take care of your entire home theatre system installation, you can specify these requests in your task post. Of course, prospective Taskers will give you a rate that corresponds to the amount of work that is needed.

The answer depends on the size of your screen and the throw distance of your projector. For example, a 220 cm (87 inch) screen plus a projector with a throw distance of 1.3 means that the projector should be 87 x 1.3 = 113 inches (287 cm) away from the screen. Measure this distance from the centre of the projector’s lens straight to the screen.

No - but only if the projector has a horizontal lens shift range that can be used to adjust the image’s placement on the screen. Otherwise, we advise that you centre your projector by aligning the lens with the horizontal centre of your screen. If certain limitations make it hard to do this, feel free to consult a projector installer or tech support specialist near you.

Our platform is your go-to place for trusted projector screen installation services near you. Here, you can find a rated, reviewed, and budget-friendly specialist in your area. In just a few minutes, you can go from posting a request and poring through offers, to booking an appointment. To start booking a projector installer near you, tap the “Post a task” button on this page.

What does a projector installation service include?

Our projector installation service covers pretty much everything you’d expect in a handyman or installation service: equipment, set-up, and testing. Though the details may vary from Tasker to Tasker, you can pretty much expect the standard inclusions, such as: 

Home theatre projector placement

First, your Tasker needs to pick a spot for your projector. This depends on the size of the projection and your room or home cinema. If your projector can be mounted to the ceiling, your Tasker may suggest it so that it doesn’t block the seats.  

The goal is to provide the best possible experience for you, your family, and your guests. If you’re using a fixed installation projector, do make sure that you’re happy with its placement in your home theatre.

Screen set-up

If you decide to put up a screen instead of just projecting onto a wall, your Tasker will take care of this as well. Screens are recommended for a better viewing experience since they produce a better image than a blank wall.  

AV projector installation

Whether you plan to set up the projector on a table or up on the ceiling, the picture must show up properly on the wall or screen. Your Tasker may test this a couple of times, after which they’ll confirm that you’re happy with the positioning. Then, they’ll fix the projector onto its mount or bracket (for ceiling-mounted ones) or simply mark the spot on the table and floor.  

Once the projector is installed, your Tasker connects it to the source - your cable box, gaming console, DVD player, and so on. If necessary, they’ll conceal the wires that are running along the floor, walls, or ceiling. 

Testing the projector

Once the projector is installed, the Tasker projects an alignment image. This is to make sure that the projector and screen locations are aligned, and that there’s no need for further adjustments.

Afterwards, your specialist may do a simple run-through of your projector’s features, just to make sure it works correctly. This step includes checking on wireless transmission, correcting the image shape and saturation, etc. 

When you and your Tasker are 100% satisfied with the image quality and the home theatre experience, your Tasker packs up and goes on their way. You’re now free to pop some popcorn, order some takeout, and enjoy your brand-new home cinema!

Set up AV for projector

Mount a projector, reroute a cable and put a switch in, hide cables

£135

Haggerston, Greater London, E2

12th Dec 2025

I am looking to get a Certified Electrician to install my projector in my ceiling and move and hide some cables. It's not the biggest job as I already have the projector (BenQ W2720i:) and the screen (ABIS 100 inch electric screen) and the projector mount (B-Tech BT899 Projector Ceiling Mount). The screen is mounted, but the projector isn't. The job would be to: - Drill into the ceiling and mount the projector According to chat gpt, I should be aiming for 2m50 throw, and given the top of my projector screen will be 17-20cm from the ceiling, it is suggesting the best would be a drop of 10 to 13cm drop. The mount it was suggesting is this one: B-Tech BT899 Projector Ceiling Mount with Micro Adjustment (Max. 25kg) (12.2cm drop) - There is an electric wire to an existing lamp (the wiring is hidden in a white trunking). Ideally if you could split the wire from the light switch on the wall, making it two switches, one for the projector, the other for the lamp, hide those two wires together in an electrical mount that would also fit the HDMI cable (Maybe a wide mount that can maintain 5cm between the electrical cables and the HDMI cable to avoid interference?) I already have the 10m hdmi cable that then also needs to be hidden in a trunking a little further along so it can reach the soundbar. - Extend the lighting cable along the ceiling a bit (a little more than a foot), so we can move the lamp (the lamp is currently in the way of where the projector will go). Of course if there are neater or better ways to do any of these things I would be very open to them! I have attached some pretty terrible photos (sorry currently abroad for work or would have take something clearer!) which shows where the cables should run . Again sorry it’s fingers scribbled on my phone! The 135 pounds would be just for the labor, I will pay for electrical cable / trunking / screws.

Projector alignment and setup

Knightsbridge, Greater London

25th Nov 2025

Hi, I need someone experienced with projectors to help me properly align my XGIMI Horizon Pro projector with my Duronic projector screen. The projector has auto-keystone and auto-alignment features, but no matter what I do, the image doesn’t fit correctly onto the screen — it’s skewed/off-centre and the corners don’t line up. I need someone who understands projector positioning, keystone, lens alignment, and screen geometry and can get it set up cleanly. This should be a quick job for someone who knows what they’re doing — likely just adjusting the placement, angle, height, and fine-tuning the settings. What I need you to do: Check projector placement and adjust height/angle Align the image perfectly within the borders of the screen Adjust keystone, focus, or any other settings needed Make sure the final picture fits the screen evenly with clean edges No major installation required — I just need the alignment fixed. Looking for someone affordable, ideally a handyman or AV-savvy tech. When: As soon as possible — flexible on time. Please reply with: Your experience (even basic projector/AV setup is fine) Your price/rate When you can come Thanks!

Little Ilford, Greater London, E12

28th Sep 2025

**Updated Listing** I’ve purchased a Duronic 100″ 16:9 fixed-frame projector screen and a ceiling mount for a BenQ TH685P projector. Both kits come with all required parts. The job is to: – Assemble the Duronic screen frame (flat-pack style, with included parts). – Stretch and attach the fabric with springs (instructions provided). – Drill and secure the screen wall brackets, then hang the frame. – Ceiling-mount the BenQ TH685P using its mount (into joists or heavy-duty anchors — not plasterboard alone). ⚠️ Precision requirements (non-negotiable): – Screen must be perfectly level – Projector lens must line up with the centre of the screen horizontally. – Lens-to-screen throw distance must be measured correctly – Lens must sit about 2–3 inches above the top of the screen’s white area when ceiling mounted. I’ll be present to guide exact placement, but this job cannot be done by eye — it requires a level and tape measure before any drilling. Must use a spirit level! Notes: – Care is needed handling the white screen fabric (clean hands, no tools touching the surface). – Safety cable on the projector mount must be attached. – Should take around 2 hours with proper tools (drill, level, ladder)

Great work, great lad. Highly recommend

We require seven different wall lamps to be fitted, a 80" TV to be wall mounted, a large mirror to be wall mounted and a projector screen to be fittted to the ceiling.

Don’t hesitate to book Ignacio; he’s absolutely incredible! Efficient, polite, punctual, and friendly, he goes above and beyond. His workmanship is flawless and he clearly takes pride in his work. A genuine 10/10 experience. He mounted a TV with a sound bar, installed an electronic projector screen, created a new plug socket, and fitted several wall lamps, even moving one when it wasn’t quite right. I’ll definitely use him again.
