About TV and media units in Bexley
In many period living rooms, the chimney breast and its two alcoves shape the whole wall. Cupboards and shelves in the alcoves can hold the boxes, speakers and books leaving the TV in an alcove or on the breast. Any chimney vent is kept clear. We make TV and media units from birch plywood and moisture-resistant MDF with a spray-painted or hand-painted finish, and people most often get in touch about a TV stand that doesn’t fit the wall and games, controllers and remotes everywhere.
Once the main sections are fixed in place, we hang any doors and fit any drawers or lids. We adjust each one so the gaps line up and it closes cleanly, and then we check it all again. How long fitting takes depends on the length of the TV wall and what it needs to hold, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote.
- You describe the TV wall and your equipment, from set-top boxes to speakers.
- We come to measure and talk through screen height, speakers and cables.
- A quote in writing follows. If anything in it is unclear, ask us.
- We then make the unit in our workshop, with cable routes planned in.
- We bring it to your home and fit it in place.
Quotes in Bexley
There is no price list, because every piece is designed for one room. Instead, we measure, discuss the design and then quote in writing, naming the materials and finish. To start, drop us a line using the contact form.
Why work with us

How to get a quote
Every piece is quoted for your room after the design visit. Because every room is different, the quote comes after the design visit, when we’ve measured up and talked through the design. To arrange a visit, send us a few details through our contact form.

Homes across Bexley and their living rooms
Living rooms across Bexley vary a lot, from knocked-through period rooms to open-plan new builds. The design for TV and media units includes cable routes and ventilation where there is a TV, with any new sockets left to your electrician. Moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood keep the pieces stable.
About 41% of the homes in Bexley went up between 1919 and 1939, and about 22% between 1945 and 1972, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). It’s a good starting point, though every room is still measured, as two homes of the same age rarely match. About 41% of homes in Bexley date from between 1919 and 1939, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). Houses from the 1920s and 1930s often have a bay window and a chimney breast in the front room, which shape where TV and media units go. About 52% of households in Bexley live in detached or semi-detached houses, going by Census 2021 figures from the ONS. In a semi or detached house, a driveway, where there is one, can make unloading easier.
We make fitted furniture for every kind of home in Bexley, from Victorian terraces to new-build flats. The process is the same wherever you are: a design visit, a quote in writing, then making and fitting.
Sidcup: Danson House, about 1.7 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area. If your own home is a period one, walls that bow and floors that slope are why TV and media units are scribed to fit rather than pushed into place. For a flat near Sidcup station, each piece is planned so it can be carried up and joined together in the room.
What we don’t do
We are carpenters, so some jobs belong to other trades. It helps to know these before you plan the job:
- Structural changes to the wall
- Configuring the TV and sound system
- Connecting the TV signal or internet
Bespoke TV and media units or ready-made?
Bespoke furniture takes longer than buying from a shop: there is a design visit, a quote and making time. If you are renting or moving soon, a standalone stand may suit you better.
What to check before you book
- How the doors are hung and adjusted
- Have they measured the stairs, lift and doorways?
- Real projects you can actually look at
- Whether the finish is set out in the quote
Tips worth knowing
Most of what helps is simple. What we’d suggest:
- Talk to your electrician early about sockets
- Think about whether you want the screen on a bracket or on a shelf
- Note the screen size you have or plan to buy
- Find out how much space each box needs around it
Doors can settle a little once the unit is in use. Most hinges can be adjusted to bring a door back in line.
Avoid piling devices on one shelf. Each one needs space around it.
Why people ask for TV and media units in Bexley
A new, larger TV often prompts it. The old stand no longer suits it, or the screen takes over the room. Shelves and cupboards around the screen make it sit better in the room.
If you recognise any of these, it is worth talking to us:
- Clutter around the TV
- A cabinet that traps heat
- A screen at the wrong height
- Space for a soundbar and speakers
Flats, conversions and lettings
Mansion blocks and purpose-built blocks often have house rules about lifts, entry systems and when trades can come in. Let us know about them during the design visit, and we’ll plan the fitting around them.
For flats on red routes or busy main roads, unloading takes some planning. TfL runs the red routes, and the stopping rules are strict, so it’s worth raising at the measuring visit.
Questions we’re often asked
Can you make TV and media units for a home in Bexley?
Yes, we do. We design and make TV and media units for homes in Bexley.
What happens during the design visit?
It’s a chance to measure properly and talk through what you’d like. We also check the walls and floors and note radiators, sockets and other things in the way, and the written quote comes afterwards.
Will you paint the walls around the furniture?
No. We make, fit and finish the furniture, and plastering and decorating are for other trades. We paint the furniture itself, by spray or by hand.
How is the price worked out?
It depends on the size, the number of doors and drawers, the internal fittings and the finish. We send a quote in writing after the design visit.
Can you fit furniture to uneven walls?
That’s normal in older homes, and it is what scribing is for. We scribe the edges to follow the wall and set the furniture level on adjustable feet or a plinth.
Can I send pictures ahead of the visit?
Yes, they help. A few pictures of the room, from floor to ceiling, tell us a lot. To send them, use our contact form.
Is the furniture spray painted or hand painted?
There are two choices: a spray finish from the workshop, which is smooth and even, or hand painting, which can be done in your home. Your quote sets out which you’ve chosen.
