About our TV and media units in Limmo Peninsula
Built-in TV and media units bring the screen, set-top boxes, speakers and cables together in one piece of furniture. The wall is planned as a whole, rather than a stand with wires trailing behind it. For a living room in Limmo Peninsula, we start with a design visit to measure and talk through what you use. Typical reasons to get in touch are equipment with nowhere proper to go and a TV stand that doesn’t fit the wall, and the answer is made in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, spray-painted or hand-painted.
Open-plan living is usual in homes built since 2000, and around Limmo Peninsula many homes date from those years. In a room like that, TV and media units can help separate the sitting area from the kitchen, without putting up a wall. Floors are protected throughout, as newer finishes mark easily.
Everything we agree at the measuring visit goes into the written quote: the layout and internal fittings, the materials and the finish. If something isn’t quite right, tell us before anything is made.

TV and media units for homes in Limmo Peninsula
Homes built since 2000 make up about 72% of the housing in the neighbourhood around Limmo Peninsula, with about 12% built between 1945 and 1972, in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. Each era brings its own kind of wall, ceiling height and floor, so it shapes the design from the first measurement. There are 10 entries on the National Heritage List within half a mile of the centre of Limmo Peninsula. You can check whether a particular building is listed on Historic England’s list. About 72% of homes around Limmo Peninsula were built since 2000, well above the figure for Newham as a whole, about 29%, going by the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax figures. Newer homes often have stud walls and compact rooms, so fixings and sizes are planned with that in mind.
Queen's House, about 2.1 miles south, 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. Living in a block of flats near Custom House station? Then the route in is measured not just the room, and the sections are sized to fit it.
Limmo Peninsula is part of the London Borough of Newham, about 1 mile north-east of Plaistow. Our work covers every London borough and the City of London, Limmo Peninsula included. Limmo Peninsula is one of the places in Newham where we make TV and media units, and the borough has 26 places on our list.
Here we cover the E16, E14 and SE10 postcode area for TV and media units. Streets in the area include Tant Avenue, Rogers Road and Lanrick Road, and we cover homes on all of them for TV and media units.

From workshop to your room
Getting everything level comes first. Where the floor slopes, we bring the furniture up to level on adjustable feet or a plinth, which keeps the lines straight. After that, it’s fixed to the wall using fixings that suit the wall, whether that’s solid brick, lath and plaster or plasterboard. In a newer development, the lift, the concierge and set working hours may all need checking, so it is useful to sort them out beforehand. TV and media units are made in sections sized for the lift and doors.
- You send us a note about the room and the unit you’d like.
- We visit to measure and talk through the design and how the unit should look in the room.
- You get a quote in writing covering the design, the materials and the finish.
- The unit is built in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF, which takes paint well, and birch plywood.
- We fit it in your home; a hand-painted finish is applied once it is in and is easy to touch up later.
Getting ready for fitting day
- Take anything hanging off the wall we’re fitting to
- Arrange any electrical changes with your electrician in advance
- Move furniture and belongings away from the wall

What else we make in Limmo Peninsula
Bespoke or off-the-shelf?
Off-the-shelf TV units come in a few set colours. Ours are painted in a colour agreed with you, by spray or by hand. In a compact new-build room, standard sizes rarely fit the walls exactly, and fitted furniture uses that space. It works around service boxing too.
Getting to the room affects the job as well. Narrow halls, tight stairs or a small lift may mean the furniture is made in more sections, and that’s part of the price. Prices are quoted for your room, once we’ve measured and talked through the design.
Why us?
- Made for your room, not a standard size
- Saturday visits and fitting by arrangement
- We work across all London boroughs
- Made in moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood

Common questions about TV and media units
How do you fit TV and media units in a flat in Limmo Peninsula?
At the design visit, we measure the way in as well as the room. TV and media units are made in our workshop in sections sized to fit that route, then assembled in your flat. If your building has rules on lift booking or working hours, or your lease needs consent for alterations, it’s worth checking those early.
Can you fit furniture in a home close to Custom House station?
Yes. We cover all of Newham and the rest of London. You can use our contact form to arrange a design visit.
My walls are not straight. Is that a problem?
Uneven walls are normal in older London homes, and the furniture is made to deal with them. Edges are scribed to the wall, and adjustable feet or a plinth bring the furniture up to level.
How long does it take to fit a TV unit?
The time the fitting takes depends on the size of the unit and how many cupboards and shelves it has, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote. We’ll talk you through what to expect beforehand.
Will my boxes get too hot inside the unit?
We plan ventilation into the unit for boxes, consoles and amplifiers, with open backs, gaps or openings. Each box should have its own space, and it’s worth checking the maker’s guidance on clearances.
What finishes do you offer?
There are two options: a spray finish from the workshop, which is smooth and even, or hand painting, which can be done in your home. The finish is agreed in your quote.
Pricing TV and media units in Limmo Peninsula
To work out the quote, we look at:
- Parking and unloading on your street
- How big the furniture is
- Walls and floors that are out of level or out of square
- How easy it is to get the furniture into the room
Every piece is quoted for your room after the design visit. Bigger pieces use more board and take longer to make and fit, so size is the starting point. Doors, drawers, internal fittings and the finish make up most of the rest.
What we need to know
Before the design visit, it helps us to know about:
- Radiators, sockets, pipes or meters on or near the wall
- What the furniture needs to hold
- Pictures of styles you like, if you have any
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Every quote follows a design visit. We measure the space, check the walls and floors and discuss what you’d like, then send a written quote. Your quote is written for your room once we’ve visited and measured. To book a design visit, fill in our short enquiry form.
Why people ask for TV and media units in Limmo Peninsula

- A cabinet that traps heat
- A screen at the wrong height
- Standard units leaving gaps
- Boxes and consoles on the floor
If you live in a period home close to Church of St Luke, picture rails and cornices give TV and media units a line to finish at.
