Hertfordshire is a county of garden-city housing, Georgian market-town centres and generous 1960s detached stock. That is exactly the kind of building stock a media wall has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
Walls in Hertfordshire are rarely square and floors are rarely level. A media wall that is built in a workshop to a nominal size will show every millimetre of that. We survey first, scribe on site, and finish so the joint line disappears.
How we build it
Carcass work is birch ply or MR MDF depending on span and load. Face frames and doors are solid hardwood. Everything is machined on the same setting so stiles, rails and reveals line through, and shadow gaps stay parallel from one end of the run to the other.
Finish and materials
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

What happens next
Four steps, no surprises
Survey
A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.
Drawings & quote
You get a setting-out drawing and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have approved both.
Workshop
Parts are machined, assembled and finished under cover while the site carries on with other trades.
Fit & handover
We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Media Walls & TV Units in Hertfordshire — common questions
Can the TV be recessed flush into the wall?
Yes, into a rebated panel with a slim bracket. You need to know the exact screen model first, because the recess is cut to it — and it means a future replacement has to fit the same aperture.
Will the equipment overheat inside a cupboard?
Not if it is vented. We fit a ventilated back panel and, for heat-producing kit like an AV amplifier, a quiet thermostatic fan. A sealed cupboard is the main cause of early failure in home cinema equipment.
What about the soundbar?
Either a dedicated open shelf directly below the screen with acoustic clearance, or an acoustically transparent fabric panel if you want it hidden. Never a closed cupboard — you will lose most of the sound.
How long does a media wall take to fit?
Two to three days on site for the joinery. First fix electrics need to be done before we arrive, and any plastering or decoration after we leave.
Can you match existing joinery in the house?
Yes. We take a profile of the existing skirting, architrave or door and either match it from stock cutters or have a cutter ground so the new work runs identically. Matching an old paint colour is straightforward; matching aged oak takes a sample panel and a couple of attempts, which we build into the programme.
