Questions
Media wall FAQ
The questions we are asked most often before a media wall is built - what it costs, how long it takes, and what actually happens on site. We install across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah, and the site survey is free in all three.
How much does a media wall cost in Dubai?
It depends on the wall size, the material and how much storage and lighting the wall includes. Fluted panelling and lacquer cost less than book-matched marble or backlit onyx. Send us your wall width, height and a photo on WhatsApp and we will reply with an estimate the same day.
How long does it take to build and install?
After the site survey and drawing approval, fabrication in our workshop usually takes two to three weeks. Installation on site is normally one to two days, including TV mounting and cable work.
Do you install media walls in Abu Dhabi and Sharjah?
Yes. We are based in Dubai and install across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah. The site survey is free in all three.
Can you hide all the cables and wiring?
Yes. Power, HDMI and network runs go inside the wall structure, and the devices sit in ventilated closed storage. Nothing is visible once the wall is finished.
Can I see the materials before I decide?
Yes. We bring physical samples of the marble, timber and finishes to your home during the consultation, so you can see them in your own light.
What is the difference between a media wall and a TV feature wall?
People often use the names for the same thing. A TV feature wall is mainly the decorative cladding around the screen. A media wall usually adds built-in storage, shelving and cable management as well. We build both.
What happens at the site survey?
We measure the wall, check where the power and data points are, and look at how the light falls across it during the day. That is also when we bring samples. Everything after it - the drawing, the elevation and the quote - is based on those measurements rather than on a standard size.
Which materials can I choose from?
Marble and porcelain stone, travertine, natural and smoked oak, walnut, fluted and slatted timber, micro-cement, lacquer and backlit onyx. Most walls combine two or three of these rather than using one throughout.
Can a media wall include a fireplace?
Yes. A linear electric fire set below the screen is one of the more popular layouts we build. The elevation is set out first so the clearances above the fire and around the television are right before anything is cut.
Do you only build media walls?
No. The same workshop and site team also build floating TV units, full-height joinery, wardrobes, and kitchen and bathroom renovations. A media wall is often part of a wider fit-out rather than a standalone job.
Still deciding?
Send a photo of your wall with its width and height on WhatsApp and we will come back the same day with an approach and a rough figure.
