The modern home entertainment solution
A modern living room is about more than just a place to sit. It’s where families unwind and entertain. That’s why bespoke media walls are becoming one of the most sought-after upgrades for UK homes. Especially in new builds where chimneys often don't come as standard.
A high quality, custom media wall can provide both a modern design and clever functionality. You can bring your TV, electric fire, and storage together into one smart, stylish feature.
What Is a Media Wall?
A media wall is a made-to-measure installation that houses your television, electric fireplace, shelving, and storage. If done well they will all sit seamlessly in one unit. A bespoke media wall package can be tailored to your space, style and needs.
Unlike off-the-shelf furniture, custom media walls are built to suit your room’s exact dimensions. That means no gaps, exposed wires, no wasted space. Just a cool focal point designed and built for your home.
Why Choose a Custom Media Wall?
By combining your TV and fire into one statement piece. A custom media wall removes the need for stands and messy cables. They offer clever storage options, including shelving, drawers, and hidden compartments. They can be designed around your lifestyle requirements so you can store what you want, where you want.
Most newbuild properties come without a chimney and fire. The media walls we design at Mansfield Fireplace & Stove Centre can come with an electric fire.
Our wide range of fires can be beautifully integrated into your media wall. Realistic flame effects, adjustable heat settings, and sleek finishes make them a practical and stylish choice. We have built media walls for customers across the UK and our service comes highly recommended.

Absolutely delighted with the work carried out on our fireplace. We had the back of the fire recess re-bricked, and the finish looks fantastic — it’s completely transformed the look of the stove and feels much more solid and professionally done. Josh and Austin were brilliant from start to finish: polite, friendly, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. They worked solidly all day without any fuss, kept everything tidy as they went, and made sure the area was properly cleaned up before leaving. The attention to detail really shows in the final result, and you can tell they take pride in their workmanship. Would happily recommend them to anyone needing fireplace or stove work — a superb job all round.

Absolutely brilliant experience! Just had an inset woodburner installed. The works involved the fireplace Installation team, a follow on electrician to move electrical sockets and finally the plasterer. Superb effort by all trades, delighted with the finished work. Cannot say enough but the guys (including Mark in the initial enquiry stage) a totally professional outfit and wound highly recommend to anyone!

We first visited the showroom almost three months ago, our objective was to get ideas on stoves and fireplace to go into a 1960's house that we were in the process of buying. The sales team were extremely helpful and provided us with good information on options with no pressure. We eventually completed our purchase late Dec 2025 for installation mid Jan, the sale process was extremely professional. The installation went ahead on time, during the install we discovered a hitch with some pipework and the position of the chimney was off centre, all I can say is the team are about solutions not problems, the issue was promptly resolved and back on track, the installation team are great lads, hard working ,very courteous and professional, the install was completed and we are very pleased with our new stone fireplace and wood burner, I would not hesitate to recommend Mansfield Fireplace & Stove Centre, they are without doubt a great team with total understanding of what great customer service means. Fantastic experience and thank you.

We had a stove fitted in October and overall had a very positive experience. The builders on site – Monty, Ollie and Martin (from memory) – were absolutely fantastic. When we ran into a few challenges due to the age and architecture of our house, they consulted us there and then, which meant we could make decisions on the spot and adjust the plan. That made a potentially stressful situation feel very manageable. As well as being friendly and courteous, they also had a quick-witted “tradies’” sense of humour, which was well received in our home. All of the other tradesmen involved were great as well and worked to a high standard. The showroom itself was lovely and we were attended to quickly. Harri dealt with us for most of the process and was consistently friendly and polite, which we really appreciated. The only minor downside was some communication issues around the mantle fitting. While the delay was due to a manufacturing issue rather than the fitting company, a bit more communication earlier on could have helped ease the situation. Overall, we’re very happy with the end result and would recommend them for their workmanship, professionalism, and customer service.

From our initial inquiry at The Mansfield Media Wall showroom to completion of our new media wall. The whole transaction has been extremely smooth. The guys in the showroom were helpful and answered all the questions we had. Communication with the company was excellent keeping us informed of dates and when different guys were due to visit. Ross the installer worked tirelessly for four days non stop! He did an extremely professional job, checking with us along the way making sure we were happy with the details of the installation. He was very neat and tidy causing little mess. Lewis the electrician followed Ross, again he was brilliant, accommodating our needs with regard to the electrics and again no mess and very professional Finally, Ryan the plasterer/ finishing Installer did an excellent job, again checking with us asking on specifics of exactly how we wanted the finished installation to look. Once again there was no mess We absolutely love our new Media Wall and would have no qualms in recommending Mansfield Media Wall 10/10 *
