TV and media units in Westcombe Park
Media equipment warms up as it runs, so sealing equipment in a cupboard isn’t a good idea. Ventilation is planned into the design, with open backs, gaps or vented doors where they’re needed. It is worth checking each maker’s guidance on clearances. Typical reasons to get in touch are a cabinet that traps heat and games, controllers and remotes everywhere, and the answer is made at our workshop from MDF made to resist moisture and birch plywood, then spray-painted or hand-painted.
Open-plan living is usual in homes built since 2000, and around Westcombe Park many homes date from those years. In a room like that, TV and media units can help separate the sitting area from the kitchen. Floors are protected throughout, as newer finishes mark easily.
The quote comes in writing, so there is time to read it properly. It covers the design, materials and finish agreed at the visit.

TV and media units for homes in Westcombe Park
About 37% of the homes in the neighbourhood around Westcombe Park went up before 1919, and about 37% since 2000, based on the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax data. We take that into account during the design visit, since older and newer walls take different fixings. Westcombe Park is partly covered by a conservation area, going by Historic England’s data. Conservation area rules mainly cover the outside of buildings, so fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. If in doubt, the council’s planning team can confirm. The ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone) now covers the whole of London, Greenwich included. It applies to every van that comes to fit furniture in Westcombe Park. How the van gets to your door is planned at the design visit.
If your home is as old as some of the listed buildings nearby, such as East Greenwich Library, original features like shutters, panelling and fireplaces are worth designing around. For a listed home, fixing into original features may need listed building consent. Close to East Greenwich Pleasaunce? TV and media units can be arranged to keep the window and the light clear. For a flat near Westcombe Park station, the lift, the stair turns and the front door all set the largest piece that can come in.
Westcombe Park is about 3 miles east of Plumstead, in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. We can visit homes in Westcombe Park on weekdays, or on a Saturday by arrangement. We list Westcombe Park among 18 places we cover in Greenwich.

Your questions about TV and media units in Westcombe Park
Can parking be tricky on fitting day in Westcombe Park?
It can be: much of inner London is covered by controlled parking zones. A van may need a visitor permit, a paid bay or a parking bay suspension, which the council arranges, often with notice. Let us know what parking is near you at the design visit, so we can plan the day around it.
Does a conservation area in or near Westcombe Park affect fitted furniture?
Normally not: conservation area rules mainly cover the outside of buildings, and fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. Listed buildings are different, as works inside that affect their character may need listed building consent from the council. If you are unsure, the council can confirm.
Can you come on a Saturday?
Yes, we can arrange Saturdays. Let us know when you first get in touch, and we will see what we can do.
Do you move sockets for a TV unit?
That’s a job for your electrician. It is best done before the unit goes in and we design the cable routes around the sockets.
How is the price worked out?
Every job is priced for its room: size, internal fittings, the finish and how awkward the walls are all play a part. The written quote follows the design visit.
How long does it take to fit a TV unit?
The fitting depends on the size of the unit and the cable routes planned into it, and your quote sets out the fitting days. The unit is made at our workshop first, so the time in your home is mostly fitting and finishing.
Flat-pack or bespoke?
What you pay for with bespoke is mainly the fit: edges scribed to the wall, a level base on a sloping floor and a neat line where the furniture meets the ceiling. Off-the-shelf furniture cannot normally do that in an older room.
If you’re handy, a simple shelf or a standard wardrobe in a square room is a reasonable DIY job. It gets harder with sloping ceilings, out-of-level floors and lath-and-plaster walls, where scribing and fixings that suit the wall are important.

What affects the cost of TV and media units
Several things affect the price:
- Access to the room, such as stairs, lifts and narrow halls
- What goes inside: rails, shelves, drawers and dividers
- The width and height of the space
- Spray painting or hand painting
We quote each job for the room it’s going into, after the design visit. The price depends mainly on the size of the piece, how many doors and drawers it has and what goes inside.
Getting in touch
When you contact us, these help most:
- Pictures of styles you like, if you have any
- Pictures showing the full wall, from floor to ceiling
- Rough measurements, even if they’re only to the nearest few centimetres
- Anything in the way, such as radiators, sockets, switches, a boiler or meters

How fitting works for TV and media units
When we arrive on fitting day, the first job is covering the floors and protecting the way in from the front door. The sections made at our workshop come in next. How long the 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. Newer homes often have finished floors, painted walls and new doors that mark easily, so we protect the route before carrying anything in. Door frames and corners get covers too. The sections are assembled in the room.
- You get in touch and tell us about the room and your equipment.
- At the design visit, we measure up and plan the screen space, cable routes and ventilation with you.
- We send a written quote for the unit, ready for you to check.
- The unit is made in our workshop, using moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- We fit it in your home, with the cable routes ready to use.
Before fitting day
- Point out meters, boilers and fuse boards near the furniture
- Move anything in the hall or on the stairs out of the way
- Tell us about parking near your home
Getting a quote
The design visit is where every quote starts. We measure the room properly, check how the walls and floors run and discuss the design with you. Afterwards, we send a written quote. To book one, tell us about the room on our contact form.
Advice
Before and after fitting day
New paint needs time to cure fully, so treat it gently at first. Beyond that, these tips help:
- Note which boxes need line of sight for their remotes
- Let us know about access early
- Decide where you will sit, so the screen height suits it
- Count your equipment, including routers and consoles
When you change equipment, use the cable routes we planned. It keeps everything neat.
Don’t stack boxes on top of each other in one space, as they trap each other’s heat. Each one needs space around it.
