I am due to receive my Sky glass tv , on the website it says about a professional putting the tv on the wall , can anyone give me any advice on who I can contact to do this for me?

That would have to be a suitably skilled local television installer or competent handyperson.

Okay thank for that , Do you know if the tv will come with a wall mount or would I need to get another one? @TimmyBGood

The main load-bearing component in the supplied Glass tabletop stand is also the basic non-adjustable wall plate. If you want one with tilt/swivel or adjustable height you'd need to source that yourself.

@TimmyBGood Do you know what screws and wall plugs are needed? I've had a look but can't seem to find where it says which ones are needed or if it's supplied

I would definitely listen to @TimmyBGood advice

The wall mounting does give the specification for the fixings. 4 x 6mm rawl bolts. It gives the size of the required drill bit and the depth.
