Bespoke Media Walls
A custom media wall is one of the best ways to turn a plain room into a relaxing, cinema-style space. Media walls have become a go-to feature in homes across Manchester and Cheshire, combining storage, lighting and a clean way to hide cables.
Media Walls with Fireplaces
We design and build:
Media wall fireplaces are perfectly sized openings for your living space
Media walls with shelving, cupboards and display niches built around the TV.
Media walls with fireplaces and shelves are ideal if you want both warmth and space for books, décor and extra storage.
We can design a bespoke media wall that suits your room, budget and style.
Bedroom & Feature Media Walls
For snug lounges or bedrooms we can create:
Bedroom media wall units are a great way to save space and create a clean, built-in look.
Media wall with panelling, we can combine Shaker or slatted detail to your walls to compliment your TV recess
We can provide a fixed quotation on media wall cost and options that work within your budget
Wall Panelling – Victorian, Shaker & Headboards
Wall panelling is a simple way to add character and a high-end finish to any room.
Victorian Wall Panelling & Wainscoting
For period homes and 1930s properties we often install:
Victorian wall panels and traditional Victorian wall panelling
Victorian style wall panels / Victorian panelling for walls at dado or full height
Feature walls for hallways, landings, dining rooms and home offices
This style works brilliantly in Cheshire homes that already have original details like coving and deep skirtings.
Shaker Wall Panels
If you prefer something a little cleaner and more contemporary:
Shaker wall panelling sized to suit your ceiling height
Perfect for bedrooms, living rooms and behind media walls
We carefully lay out the panel spacing so everything sits neatly around sockets, radiators and doors.
Headboard Panelling
We also build headboard panelling to give bedrooms a boutique-hotel feel:
Full-width headboard wall panels behind the bed
Slim panelled headboard designs for smaller rooms
If you’ve been saving ideas for a statement wall headboard, we can turn them into a practical design.
Internal Doors
New internal doors can completely change how your home feels. Many local joinery firms treat doors as an add-on; we treat them as a key part of the overall design, from frames and architraves to hardware and finishes.
We can supply and fit:
Solid and veneered oak internal doors
Glazed internal doors to bring more light through hallways
Simple panelled doors that tie in with your Shaker wall panels or Victorian wall panelling
If you’re looking for bespoke joinery in the Stockport area, we can update one door or coordinate a full-house change-over.
Alcove Cupboards & Fitted Storage
Chimney breasts and awkward corners are ideal for alcove cupboards and shelving.
Our bespoke joinery services include:
Built in alcove cupboards
Alcove cupboards and shelves around chimney breasts
Modern alcove cupboards with push-to-open fronts for a clean look
Made to measure alcove cupboards for living rooms, snug rooms and bedrooms
Whether you call it an alcove cupboard, cupboard alcove or alcove cupboards and shelving, everything is measured, built and installed to fit your space perfectly
Oak & Glass Staircases
Your staircase is often the first thing guests see, it deserves the same attention to detail as your kitchen or media wall. Across Stockport and Cheshire, oak and glass staircases have become a popular way to modernise older homes while keeping the warmth of timber.
We can:
Renovate existing stairs with oak treads, risers and handrails
Add glass balustrades for a lighter, more open feel
Design luxury staircases that link with your internal doors and panelling
Coordinate finishes so the hallway, landing and stairs feel like one considered space
