TV and media units for your home in Bandonhill
Fitting day, step by step
Period rooms often have skirting boards, picture rails, cornices or coving for the furniture to meet. We cut and scribe the furniture around them on site, so it sits neatly against the room. How long fitting takes depends on the size of the unit and the cable routes planned into it, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote. Clearing the room and the way in beforehand makes the day easier, including pictures on nearby walls. We cover floors and doorways first. Then the sections come in and are joined in place.
- You tell us about the room and what the unit needs to hold, from set-top boxes to speakers.
- We come to measure and talk through screen height, speakers and cables, with ventilation for boxes and amplifiers.
- We put the design, materials and finish into a written quote. If anything in it is unclear, ask us.
- Once you’re happy, the unit is built in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, with cable routes planned in.
- We bring it to your home and fit it in place.
Preparing the room
- Clear the area where the furniture is going
- Let us know if your street is in a controlled parking zone
- Take down pictures, mirrors and shelves from the wall
Starting with a design visit
To make a start, tell us about the room on our contact form and tell us a little about the room. From there, we arrange a design visit to measure up and talk through your ideas, and a quote in writing follows.

TV and media units in Bandonhill
In a room with a chimney breast, the alcoves either side are natural places for media storage. 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. If your home has a cabinet that traps heat and empty alcoves beside the TV, that’s what TV and media units are for, made from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, finished by spray or by hand.
Ceiling heights across London vary a lot, from tall period rooms to compact modern ones. In Bandonhill, as anywhere, we measure the height as carefully as the width, since it sets how tall TV and media units can be. Sections are sized for the stairs and doors on the way in.
The quote comes in writing, so you can read it at your own pace and share it with anyone else involved. It records the design, the materials and the finish we discussed.

More for homes in Bandonhill
Is bespoke worth it?
An off-the-shelf TV stand is cheaper and quick to buy. A stand is also simple to swap when technology moves on, which is a fair point in its favour. Bespoke units are made for one wall and the things you use. Off-the-shelf furniture is designed for no room in particular, whereas fitted pieces are designed for one room: yours. The finish is chosen to suit the space.
Rooms that aren’t square take more work: uneven walls, sloping floors and angled ceilings all add scribing and cutting on site. That is reflected in the quote, written once we have measured up.
Why choose us
- More than 300 projects completed
- Made in our workshop, then fitted in your home
- Built around your room
- Saturday work by arrangement

What affects the price in Bandonhill
The price reflects the time and materials the job needs. That depends on:
- Walls and floors that are out of level or out of square
- Spray painting or hand painting
- The overall size of the piece
- How many doors and drawers there are
There is no price list, because each job is designed for a single room. We measure up, discuss the design and send a written quote, with the materials and finish set out. To start, get in touch through our contact form.
Helping us understand the room
To give us a picture of the room, it’s useful to include:
- Examples of the look you’re after
- What kind of home it is, and which floor the room is on
- Anything in the way, such as radiators, sockets, switches, a boiler or meters
- Where you live, with the postcode
Getting a quote starts with a few details: which room it is, rough measurements and a couple of photos if you can take them. When you are ready, use our contact form. We’ll then arrange a design visit and follow it with a written quote.
Your questions about TV and media units in Bandonhill
Do you make TV and media units for homes in Bandonhill?
Yes. We cover all of Sutton and the rest of London, and Bandonhill is part of that. The first step is a design visit, where we measure and discuss the design, followed by a quote.
Can parking be tricky on fitting day in Bandonhill?
It can be, depending on whether your street is in a controlled parking zone. Depending on the street, a visitor permit, a paid bay or a bay suspension through the council may be needed, and suspensions often need notice. It helps to let us know about parking at the design visit.
Can I send pictures before the visit?
Yes. They give us a feel for the space before we visit. It helps to show radiators, sockets and anything else on the wall.
Can the TV be wall-mounted with a unit around it?
If the TV is wall-mounted, we design the unit around the bracket position, with a route for the cables. The bracket needs a sound wall, which we look at during the design visit.
Will the cables be hidden?
We design the unit so cables run out of sight. Access panels make future changes easy without taking the unit apart. For a wall-mounted TV, a route behind the screen is planned in.
How do you get large furniture into a flat?
We plan the route in at the design visit. The stairs, landings, any lift and the doorways are measured, and each section is made to a size that will get through.
Flats, leases and landlords
A lot of London’s terraced houses are now converted flats, which often brings a shared hall and tight turns on the stairs. We plan the size of each section around it.
For a rented home, access for the design visit and fitting day has to be agreed with the tenants, at times that suit them. An agent can arrange access for you.
Living-room carpentry in Bandonhill: local notes
In the area around Bandonhill, the largest groups of homes date from between 1919 and 1939 (about 29%) and between 1973 and 1999 (about 22%), based on the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax data. Knowing roughly when a home was built helps, because walls and fixings change from one era to the next. There are 5 entries on the National Heritage List within half a mile of the centre of Bandonhill. You can check whether a particular building is listed on Historic England’s list. Red routes are run by TfL, with tight limits on where and when vehicles can stop. If your home in Bandonhill is on or near a main road, tell us during the design visit. We’ll plan where the van can stop.
If you live near Beddington Park, shelving that stops short of the window keeps the view of the green. For a flat near Waddon station, TV and media units are made in sections sized for the stairs, landings and lift, so measuring the route matters as much as measuring the room. If your home is as old as some of the listed buildings nearby, like Brandries Cottage, original features like shutters, panelling and fireplaces are worth designing around. For a listed home, fixing into original features may need listed building consent.
