Top Home Theatre related questions

For starters, you need a display device like a TV or projector and a surround sound system. This may include a soundbar, subwoofer and rear speakers. You can also add cinema-style seats, carpeting and other appliances to your home theatre.

A home theatre installation may take anywhere from a few hours to an entire day, depending on your requests and the space you have.

A typical home theatre installation cost ranges from $100 to $250. Talk with your Tasker to get an accurate estimate of expenses.

Choose your appliances according to the size of your home theatre. A bigger space calls for a larger system.


When arranging your sound system, it’s best to put the centre speaker on higher ground (ideally above the screen) and the subwoofer slightly off-centre to create an immersive experience. Lastly, home cinema calibration is a must.

The first step is considering your room size and seating arrangement. From there, you can pick high-quality speakers. A Tasker can help you angle and position them for the best audio experience.


Don’t forget to balance your home cinema’s sound-reflective and sound-absorptive elements. Rugs and curtains absorb sound, while accessories on a coffee table can reflect and disperse sound.

Some questions to ask a Tasker before installation include:

  • Have you done projects similar to mine?

  • Is there enough space between the TV and the seats?

  • How will you mount equipment or hide cables?

  • Will I need special cables for my system (e.g. 4K video)?

  • What are your suggestions for my home theatre?

What do home theatre services include?

Booking a home theatre expert through Airtasker offers convenience and customisation with the best results. A typical home theatre installation involves a screen and speakers, but it can go beyond that.


You can specify requests to your Tasker, such as the type of display device and automation features. Here are possible home theatre services you can avail of:


Display device installation

Home theatre experts can work with different display devices, including LCD TVs, curved TVs, and projector screens. Depending on your chosen appliance, available space and preferences, your Tasker can mount your display device onto the wall or ceiling.


Then, they'll connect it to your audio system and playback gadgets. The last steps are usually configuring settings and tidying up unsightly wires.


Audio system installation

The audio is just as important as the visuals. A home theatre installation is not complete without speakers. You can opt for a surround sound system, a soundbar, or even both.


Taskers can advise you on what would work best based on the room's acoustics and seat placements.


Home cinema design and installation

If you want to splurge and achieve the ultimate home theatre, a home cinema design specialist is a must. They help you pick out furniture and appropriate flooring or carpeting.


Painting the walls and adding lighting are also ways to elevate your home theatre aesthetics.


Home theatre automation

Technology makes many things more manageable, including your home cinema. Integrated automation allows you to remotely control different parts of your media room.


Your home theatre installer will show you how to choose your streaming or viewing options, adjust room temperature, turn off lights, etc.


Receiver installation

A home theatre usually involves many cables and wires, all hooked up to a receiver. Your Tasker will place this in a well-ventilated area with easy access, then connect it to your internet, display device, and sound system.


Surge protector installation

If you'd like to safeguard your home cinema devices from electric surges, ask your Tasker to install surge protectors. These can help extend the lifespan of your appliances.


In case your home theatre installer is unable to do this, you may find an electrician on Airtasker.

Hang canvas picture up on wall + mount tv to stand

$50

Rushcutters Bay NSW 2011, Australia

31st Jul 2025

Need someone today to hang a large canvas painting in my apartment. It’s going quite high—basically up in the stairwell area—so you’ll likely need a ladder or step platform to reach the spot. The canvas isn’t heavy at all, just a bit awkward because of the height. Wall is standard plasterboard, so would prefer minimal damage (please use proper hooks or anchors if needed). Visitor parking is available.

Stanley is fantastic. He is very kind polite and just what I needed. Thank you so much. Highly recommend.
