TV and media units designed for your room
How fitting day works
With the carcasses fixed and level, we hang any doors and fit any drawers or lids. We adjust each one so the gaps line up and it closes cleanly, then checked again. How long fitting takes depends on the size of the unit and the cable routes planned into it, and the fitting days are set out in your quote. With little room to spare in a flat, pieces come in as they’re needed. Floors are covered and dust is kept down. Fixings are chosen for each wall, solid or plasterboard.
- You get in touch about a built-in TV unit.
- At the design visit we agree the layout and talk about colour and finish.
- You get a quote in writing covering the design, the materials and the finish.
- We build the unit in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood; a spray-painted finish is applied there for a smooth, even surface.
- We fit it in your home; a hand-painted finish is applied once it is in and is easy to touch up later.
Before fitting day
- Book any lift and let the concierge or building manager know
- Clear the area where the furniture is going
- Let us know if your street is in a controlled parking zone

Advice
How we make TV and media units for Agar Town
Speakers need space to be heard properly. A soundbar usually sits just below the TV. Closing speakers in a cupboard muffles them, so we leave open bays for them. If you are living with equipment running hot in a closed cupboard and set-top boxes stacked on a stand, TV and media units made from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, finished by spray or by hand can solve it.
A flat’s living room often has to hold the sofa, the TV, the books and the dining table. Around Agar Town, where most households live in purpose-built flats, TV and media units that use the height of the room help keep the floor clear. Shallow units on one wall can hold more than a standalone bookcase while using less space.
Our quotes are written in plain words, without jargon. They say what will be made, what it is made from and how it will be finished, all taken from the design visit.

Common questions about TV and media units
I live near Camden Road station. Is that in your area?
Yes, homes across Camden and the rest of London are within the area we cover. To get started, you can fill in our short enquiry form with some details about the room.
Do you make TV and media units for homes in Agar Town?
Yes, we work across Camden, Agar Town included, and across the rest of London. You can tell us about the room on our contact form to arrange a design visit.
How do I get started?
Just drop us a line using the contact form. Rough sizes and a few photos help, and then we arrange a visit to measure and talk through the design.
Do I need to be at home on fitting day?
We need someone to let us in at the start of the day. It is good to have someone there at the end to look over the work with us.
Do TV units need ventilation?
Ventilation is designed in wherever equipment sits, with open backs, gaps or openings. Each box should have its own space and you can check the maker’s guidance on clearances.
Does the unit work if the TV is on a bracket?
Where the TV is to be wall-mounted, we plan the unit around the bracket, with a route for the cables. The bracket needs a sound wall, which we look at during the design visit.
How it’s made
Doors and drawer fronts
Some equipment needs line of sight for its remote.
Plinths and scribe strips
Period walls usually need scribing. It makes the unit look built in.
Before and after fitting day
Fresh paintwork takes a while to cure fully, so treat it gently at first. After that, a few simple habits help:
- Choose how the TV will sit before the design is finished
- Decide where you’ll sit, so the screen height suits it
- Let us know about access early
- Note which boxes need line of sight for their remotes
A soft, slightly damp cloth is all painted surfaces need. Avoid abrasive pads and strong sprays.
Tag each lead at both ends, so changes later are simple.

Built-in living-room furniture in Agar Town
In the streets around Agar Town, the largest groups of homes date from before 1919 (about 36%) and the years since 2000 (about 24%), according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). Each era brings its own kind of wall, ceiling height and floor, so it shapes the design from the first measurement. The centre of Agar Town is within about a quarter of a mile of the Regent's Canal Conservation Area. Planning controls in conservation areas are mainly concerned with the outside of buildings, so fitting furniture inside a house does not normally need permission. If in doubt, the council’s planning team can confirm. The ULEZ, run by TfL, takes in all of London, so Camden is inside it. Vans bringing furniture to Agar Town fall under it, just as they do across the rest of London. How the van gets to your door is planned at the measuring visit.
For a flat near Camden Road station, check any building rules on lifts and working hours early, and the sections will be sized for the way in. Close to Lewis Cubitt Park? A room that looks out on trees deserves a design that leaves the window alone. If your home is as old as some of the listed buildings nearby, like All Saints Greek Orthodox Church, original features like shutters, panelling and fireplaces are worth designing around. If your own home is listed, check with the council before fixing into original features.

DIY, flat-pack or bespoke
Off-the-shelf cupboards come in fixed sizes, so there’s often a strip of wasted space at the side or above. Fitted furniture is made to the room’s measurements, so it can use the full height and width.
What you pay for with bespoke is mainly the fit: scribed edges, a level base on an uneven floor and furniture that meets the ceiling, skirting and picture rail. Off-the-shelf furniture cannot normally do that in an older room.
