Depending on where you live…I know that stores like Best Buy, HH Gregg, and Circuit City employ installers. I know for sure that Best Buy has employees who are trained in installing home theater equipment and that is all they do. You don’t have to have bought your equipment from them. The cost ranges from about 300 or 400 dollars to hook up a tv and sound system and up to about 1500 dollars to hang a flat panel on the wall and hide the wires to your speakers and other components. They are going to try and sell you a lot of cables though.

Please ignore the last poster, I am supprised you have not gotten better answers already!
Your first resource to check is, that is the organization the certifies home theater installers, and they will be happy to refer you local dealers and installers.
Another good place would be to check out your local book store and check out the hifi section, in the high end audio magazines you will usually find a directory of premier dealers, and you should find one in your area.
Most home theater installers are small and just a one shop kind of place. There are regional dealers that are okay as well. The only national dealer you should trust with your installation is Tweeter, which is where I work, and recommend completly. Best Buy and Circuit City sub contract most of their installers, and are not in the business to do a professional home theater. You shouldn’t have any problem finding several installers in your area by contacting Cedia.
By the way, if you by chance live near Wilmington, Delaware I could help you out. Please just indicate in the comments section where you live and I will be able to find a few places if you like.

Look for a hi-end audio retailer nearest you. Be forewarned that many will only install what they sell. They may steer you to an installer. Shy away from the likes of the “big two” Best Buy, Circuit City.
