Media walls Durham
Designed, built and installed on site across Durham City and the surrounding villages.
Each wall is made to measure for your television, fire and equipment, with the cabling hidden and the storage planned in.
Retained fabric and wall fixing in Durham
Durham’s Peninsula conservation appraisal documents the historic centre around the Cathedral and Castle. If your room is in a listed building, establish whether the proposed wall fixing or removal of existing fabric needs consent before commissioning the installation.
This Durham media-wall page concentrates on what the new structure meets. Photographs can show skirting, ceiling lines and a chimney breast, but they cannot confirm the fixing substrate. We inspect the wall and plan appropriate fixing rather than choosing anchors solely from its appearance.
Identify services and access panels before agreeing built-in cupboards. If plaster or another surface needs attention, that work should be discussed in the installation scope. Kitchen and bedroom enquiries are covered on the wider Durham location page.

Questions about work in Durham
Practical answers before you arrange a visit.
Could fixing a Durham media wall affect a listed building?
It may if the work affects protected fabric or character. Seek property-specific advice from Durham County Council before installation; internal work is not automatically outside listed building controls.
Can a photograph confirm the right media-wall fixings?
No. A photograph is useful for the initial brief, but the underlying wall and its condition need assessment before the fixing method is specified.
How are service access points handled behind a Durham television wall?
Identify them at the visit. The layout must retain suitable access instead of permanently enclosing an inspection point or service control.
Should damaged plaster be resolved before building the wall?
Any surface or substrate problem relevant to the installation should be assessed first. The agreed preparation and making good need to be clear in the quotation.
