Rutland is a county of limestone and Collyweston-slate cottages in tightly conserved villages. 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
A media wall is a permanent part of the building, so it is worth setting out properly. We take the survey, agree the drawings, machine the parts in the workshop and fit in Rutland in one visit wherever the programme allows.
How we build it
Timber is chosen for the room it is going into. Painted work is built in tulipwood and moisture-resistant MDF because they hold a crisp arris and take a sprayed finish without grain rise. Where the grain is meant to be seen we use European oak, walnut or ash, with veneers laid so the figure runs continuously across a set of doors.
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 Rutland — 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.
Do you work with architects and builders?
Regularly. We can work to your drawings and specification, price from a schedule, and co-ordinate with the main contractor's programme. We are equally happy dealing directly with a homeowner from a rough sketch.
