Sid & Claire

Sid and Claire have become loyal and valued clients of Home Cinema Interiors since first getting in touch in the first half of 2023. Since then we have installed a Media Wall in May 2023, a Drawing Room Renovation in October 2023 and most recently a Dining Area Renovation (with Bar!) in the last months of 2024. 

The Media Wall was built and finished alongside a full room renovation and showcased a New Forest 1600 (Deluxe) Electric Fire, 65″ LG OLED TV, Sonos Arc Soundbar, Sonos Amp, Storage Cupboards and Philips Hue Smart Lighting. The Interior Decor options in this Media Wall consisted of Teak Nature Wall Panelling and Walnut Slat Panelling to the shelving area of the wall and also mirrored on an opposite wall in the room. Additional finishing touches in this room included skirting, architrave, change of socket fascia’s and a full room paint. 

The Drawing Room began with custom made panelling, sculpted around the room to bring depth and character and installation of beautiful high quality cornice and bespoke shelving. The original Parquet flooring was discovered underneath the existing carpet, so we put Sid & Claire in touch with a floor restoration service to bring it back to life – and they certainly did! In addition we built specially designed oak platforms to support the stunning cast iron radiators. Beautiful, locally sourced ceiling lights were hung, premium light switch and socket fittings were installed and our painter carried out a full room redecorate in the chosen colours, which complimented the room beautifully. 

The Dining Room renovation consisted of a Bespoke Bar, designed in house. The Bar showcases a beautiful Quartz Worktop (Royal Blue Quartz), also used as a backdrop within the bar. Storage cupboards and fridges were installed. The same style of panelling and cornice coving were used in the Dining Room as the Drawing Room and we also installed the same luxury Buster + Punch sockets and switches to coordinate each room. The room was given character with the Ralph Lauren wallpaper and full paint throughout.

Photos and Client Feedback

Sid & Claire kindly answered some questions for us about their experience with Home Cinema Interiors. 

1.      What was your initial idea around your first renovation (Media Wall)? Did you gather ideas? Research tradespeople that offered that service? 

We were looking to refurbish the family room, changing it from a simple ‘TV on the wall’ to a stylish and functional media wall, with added ‘wow’ factor.  We looked for ideas on various websites, Facebook and home style magazines, and contacted a few companies to provide suggestions and quotes; however, we didn’t feel inspired by what they could offer and a couple of firms didn’t even bother to come back to us with a quote.  

 

2.      How did you hear about Home Cinema Interiors (probably Home Cinema Design) when you first got in touch? And what was your perception at that time of the services that we offer?

We came across Home Cinema Design (Interiors) on Facebook, after you’d posted some images of media wall designs recently completed. We were very impressed with the quality and bespoke styles, as well as their professionalism and eye for creating something truly eye catching.  We visited your web site to find out more and were excited to see that your services were not just limited to media wall installations. Lots of positive customer reviews also reassured us that you were a good company to approach, especially as we’d experienced some poor tradespeople in the past.

3.      What was it about Josh and Home Cinema Interiors that made you happy to proceed with your initial renovation? And similarly, what were the things that he, and the team, did that made you become the repeat/loyal clients that you did?

Initial contact with Home Cinema Designs was with Charlotte.  Her prompt, polite, professional and non-pressured response to our initial enquiry made it an easy decision for us to proceed with obtaining a quote and design advice.    Meeting Josh and the team, set the ‘trust meter’ even higher! Importantly, Josh listens… and is a full of ideas of how to take your framework thoughts and make them into something unique and special. After meeting Josh, we knew we were in good and knowledgeable hands, as he translated our requirements into a design that we loved. Josh and the team, excel at making the installation perfect, always going above and beyond.  When issues arise (as they always do with home projects), we never have any concerns as Josh is always ready with a solution. Josh’s trusted network of other trades (eg, plumbers, plasters, painters) make this a truly one-stop, all-in-one firm! It is hard to find a truly trusted team that can constantly deliver to an exceptional standard. These are the reasons we’ve returned to Josh to renovate other parts of the house, creating breathtaking and bespoke rooms that repeatedly attract compliments from friends, family and other tradespeople that visit. 

 

4.      How do you feel about your home renovations?

We LOVE what Josh and his team have created for us!  The quality of the workmanship, attention to detail, knowledge and experience, and design flare, together with the politeness and commitment of the whole team, removes any fear about engaging with Home Cinema Interiors.

 

5.      Would you recommend Home Cinema Interiors? If so, are there specific reasons why?

Quite simply, YES!!  If, before they finish a job, you are already talking to Josh about the next project, you can firmly say that you’ve found the holy grail of a tradesman! We certainly won’t be going anywhere else to have our renovations done.  If you are looking for an honest, competent company that deliver something special, there’s no reason to go anywhere else!

  • Josh and team did an amazing job with our media wall. And there was an existing structure where they created the media wall, so they had to be creative to come up with support structureI am amazed by their execution quality and speed. It’s rare to get your vision turn into reality and this team made it happen. And without any fuss. I mean they are real professionals, the entire process right from contacting them for a quote to the final media wall was very seamlessly managed.

    Sameer Das

  • I was recommended Josh and his team for building a media wall with fireplace and after speaking with him I was incredibly impressed with his knowledge and expertise in building media walls. We agreed a design and Josh gave great advice on what would look good.Josh was an absolute pleasure to have on-site, so much so that I hired him to also build a naturewall with hidden storage as well as build some storage cupboards in our kids playroom. Throughout all the jobs, Josh made sure it was completed to his own very high standards and nothing we asked was too much.I would highly recommend Josh both for workmanship but also just how easy he is to deal with. He transformed our home and we are grateful to have worked with him.
