Your Media Wall Options

Size

Our media wall installations adapt to diverse living spaces, with our most sought-after designs ranging from 1.5 to 4+ metres.


For intimate rooms and contemporary flats, compact 1.5-2 metre installations create an impressive focal point whilst maintaining spatial harmony. These streamlined designs incorporate essential storage without overwhelming the room's proportions.


For more spacious settings, our grander 4+ metre installations deliver striking impact with expanded storage capacity and integrated lighting features.


These larger units beautifully showcase decorative elements alongside entertainment systems, though they require substantial wall space and a bigger budget.


Selecting the ideal size demands careful consideration of your room's dimensions and practical requirements.


Whilst larger installations offer enhanced storage and dramatic presence, they may dominate smaller spaces.


Conversely, compact designs preserve room flow but provide limited storage options. Our expertise ensures you choose dimensions that perfectly suit your space.



Design Options

Our LED lighting systems create captivating ambiance whilst reducing eye strain during viewing, offering various backlight options to suit your room's aesthetic.


Choose from our selection of integrated electric fires, including panoramic, side-window and traditional designs, adding both warmth and visual appeal.


Maximise functionality with floating shelves for displaying cherished items, whilst concealed cupboards keep equipment tidily stored. Dedicated soundbar spaces ensure premium audio delivery without compromising the installation's sleek appearance.


Each element works in perfect harmony - ambient lighting showcases display areas, whilst practical storage keeps entertainment essentials neatly organised.


These thoughtfully integrated components transform your media wall into a versatile centrepiece that delivers both style and functionality.



The Finish

Rich charcoals and deep navy blues create bold focal points in larger, bright rooms, whilst soft neutrals and warm greys enhance the perception of space in cosier settings.


Our panel selections introduce distinctive character through varied textures. Wood-effect panels bring natural warmth and tactile appeal, harmonising with existing furnishings.


Contemporary stone-effect panels deliver modern sophistication, whilst textured options add compelling visual depth to your installation.


Each finish offers distinct advantages - painted surfaces enable perfect colour matching with existing décor and simple refreshing, whilst panels provide enhanced durability and natural texture that masks minor wall irregularities.


Your choice of finish, whether the smooth uniformity of paint or the rich depth of panels, profoundly shapes your room's atmosphere.

Custom Media Walls In Hockley: The Do’s And Don'ts

âś…

Keep It Central

Although it’s completely up to you, many customers have told us they prefer a media wall in the center of the room, as opposed to the sides. 

❌

Your Current Fire

A lot of people tend to have an existing fireplace in the middle of the living room. Before starting a media wall, this will need to be removed; and a stud wall will need to be built.

âś…

Fire & TV Size

We always recommend choosing a media wall fire that matches the size of your TV, as this provides the most aesthetic appeal.

❌

Wood Burner/Stove

The same applies if you have a stove/wood burner in your chimney breast. This will have to come out beforehand for safety reasons.

What’s Involved In Building A Media Wall?

01      Building The Stud Work

Our media wall installations begin with an expertly crafted stud framework - the vital skeleton that ensures lasting stability.


We secure this framework directly into brick using specialist fixings, rather than plasterboard, creating a significantly stronger foundation for your entertainment equipment.


Our advanced detection equipment precisely locates ceiling joists, enabling secure overhead attachments that guarantee unwavering support for years.


This meticulous approach to structural integrity is crucial, as the framework must reliably bear substantial weight from TVs, shelving and integrated features.


Whilst construction inevitably creates some dust, we employ robust protection measures throughout.


Premium dust sheets safeguard your furniture and flooring, while professional extraction equipment captures airborne particles.


Our daily cleaning routine maintains your home's cleanliness during the entire installation process, delivering a perfectly aligned framework that meets exact design specifications.

02 Boarding & Plastering

We offer two distinct approaches to your media wall's foundation. MDF provides a faster solution, eliminating plastering and drying time, though it cannot accommodate protective angle beads on corners, which may affect long-term durability.


Traditional plasterboard with professional plastering achieves superior results, particularly for painted finishes.


Whilst requiring drying time, plastering creates impeccably smooth surfaces that elevate your media wall's refined appearance.


These expertly finished surfaces provide the perfect canvas for any colour scheme, ensuring lasting beauty.


For decorative panel installations, we use plasterboard without plastering, offering an ideal mounting surface.


This method strikes an efficient balance, delivering a robust foundation for panels whilst reducing installation time.


We'll guide you to the most suitable option for your specific design requirements.

03 The Final Touch (Painting)

The final stage elevates your media wall into a captivating centrepiece.


Our meticulous painter delivers impeccable finishes, whether you select refined neutrals that harmonise with your existing décor or striking statement shades like deep navy or charcoal that command attention.


Alternatively, our panel selections offer distinctive character - wood-effect panels introduce natural warmth, whilst stone textures bring contemporary sophistication.


Modern laminates combine style with exceptional durability.


Paint provides limitless colour options and simple refreshing, whereas panels feature intrinsic texture and enhanced resilience.


Current trends favour soft greys for minimalist spaces, rich blues for dramatic effect, and textured stone panels for enduring elegance.


Through detailed consultation, we ensure your chosen finish, whether painted or panelled, perfectly enhances your room's character whilst achieving your desired visual impact.

FAQs

Here you can find the most common frequenty asked questions we get about media walls. You can also click the button below to find answer to more related questions about your project.

  • How long does a media wall take?

    Building media walls in Hockley typically takes 3-5 days to complete, depending on design complexity and additional features.

  • Is MDF or plasterboard used for a media wall?

    MDF is a sturdy, durable material ideal for supporting heavier items, making it a great choice for the bottom of shelves on a media wall. In contrast, plasterboard is lightweight and easy to install, providing a smooth, paint-ready surface for the wall structure. Ultimately, the choice depends on the customer’s preferences for functionality and finish.

  • What Depth Does a media wall need to be?

    The depth of a media wall typically measures around 400mm, but this can vary based on design preferences and the equipment being installed. Larger TVs or integrated features like shelving, fireplaces, or sound systems may require additional depth to ensure everything fits securely and functions well. As media wall builders we will customise the depth to accommodate your needs and the media wall’s intended use, balancing aesthetics with practical requirements.


  • Does A Media Wall Need Ventilation?

    Yes, a media wall often requires ventilation, especially if it includes electronics like TVs, sound systems, or an electric fireplace. As seasoned media wall builders we can tell you that proper ventilation prevents overheating by allowing air to circulate around these devices, protecting them from potential damage. Ventilation can be incorporated discreetly, using vent panels or gaps that blend with the design, ensuring functionality without compromising the wall's appearance.

  • Will I need to reinforce the wall?

    Yes, if the wall uses dry lining, it will need reinforcement with MDF to ensure a secure structure. Reinforcing provides a solid fixing for the stud work, which is essential for safely supporting heavier elements like TVs and shelving. Strong reinforcement ensures durability and stability, especially when mounting heavy equipment, ensuring durability.

  • Will Media Walls Go Out Of Fashion?

    Media walls are unlikely to go out of fashion. As interior design trends increasingly focus on functionality, technology integration, and clean aesthetics. Modern homes favour minimalist, clutter-free spaces that seamlessly incorporate entertainment systems, making media walls an ideal solution. As technology advances and TVs continue to remain the centre of any home entertainment system, media walls will ensure both style and practicality. As design trends evolve, media walls can be customised to suit various styles, ensuring they remain a versatile and timeless choice.
