🎄 Thinking about a media wall for Christmas? Now’s the time to plan it.

You know that wall you keep looking at thinking, “we really need to do something with that…”?

Imagine it finished before Christmas.

TV built in.
Fire underneath.
Everything neat, fitted and designed to actually suit your room.

A media wall can completely change how a living room feels, especially at Christmas when you’re spending more time at home and everyone seems to end up gathered in the same room.

And it doesn’t have to be a huge, over-the-top design either.

We can create something around your room, your style and your budget, whether you want a full statement media wall or something much simpler around a new fireplace.

We can take care of the building, plastering and finishing, so you’re not trying to organise different trades yourself.

If a media wall or new fireplace is on your list before Christmas, now is a good time to get it booked in.

Send us a photo of the wall you’re thinking of using and roughly what you have in mind, and we can have a chat about what could work.

Thinking of adding coving to your home? đź‘€

It’s one of those finishing touches that can completely change how a room feels.

We fit traditional cast coving, giving you that crisp, properly finished look that works beautifully in both modern and period homes.

And because we’re Thompson Trades, you’re not having to find different trades for every part of the job. If your room needs plastering, decorating prep or other work alongside it, we can take care of that too.

We’re currently taking bookings for upcoming work around Hull and surrounding areas, and we do have availability.

If you’ve been thinking about having coving fitted, send us a message with a photo of the room and roughly where you’re based and we can have a chat about what would work.

The smallest room in the house deserves some attention too đź‘€

This downstairs WC has had a complete transformation.

Fully tiled from floor to ceiling, with a new toilet, sink and radiator, turning what can easily be an overlooked space into a smart, modern cloakroom.

And that’s the thing with downstairs WCs. You don’t need a huge space to make a huge difference.

If yours has been sitting on the “we’ll get round to it” list, we can help change that.

✨ The room looked finished… but something still felt missing.

It’s often the smallest details that make the biggest difference.

Coving is one of those finishing touches that quietly transforms a room. It softens the join between the walls and ceiling, adds character, and gives your home that polished, complete look.

At Thompson Trades, we take the time to get those details right because we know they’re what you’ll notice every time you walk into the room.

Whether you’re renovating your whole home or simply refreshing a space, professionally fitted coving can make all the difference.

It’s the little details that make a home stand out.

Most people notice a freshly decorated room.

What they don’t always notice is why it feels so much more finished.

Coving is one of those details.

It creates a clean transition between the walls and ceiling, adds character, and gives any room a timeless, elegant finish.

Every length is carefully measured, cut and fitted so the joins are neat and the finish looks like it’s always been there.

Whether you’re restoring period features or adding a touch of character to a modern home, professionally fitted coving can completely change the feel of a room.

If you’re thinking about adding coving to your home, we’d be happy to help.

It was supposed to be our two-week break.

Instead, this week has already seen us come to the rescue for two customers.

This evening, the phone rang.

A customer had accidentally drilled through a pipe, and suddenly there was water where there definitely shouldn’t have been.

So we’ve dropped what we were doing, loaded the van and headed straight over.

This is the reality of working in the trades.

Emergencies don’t wait for the right time.
They don’t wait until your holiday is over.
They just happen.

We’re always grateful that people trust us enough to make that call when something goes wrong.

Hopefully, that’s the last emergency of our break… but if it isn’t, we’ll be there.

📞 If you’re ever stuck and need a trusted local tradesman, send us a message. We’ll always do our best to help.

Thinking your bathroom is too small to look like this?

So did our customer.

The room hadn’t changed size.

We simply reimagined how it could look and feel.

The result?

A brighter, more modern bathroom that feels more spacious, more practical and somewhere you actually enjoy spending time.

The best part is that this transformation started with a simple conversation.

If you’re putting off your bathroom because you think it’ll cost too much, take too long or you’re not sure what’s possible, let’s talk first.

We’ll listen to what you want, offer honest advice and help you decide whether it’s the right time for your project.

Watch the reel to see how this bathroom was transformed from start to finish.

Uneven ceilings and awkward corners can make a whole room feel unfinished.

One thing people don’t always realise until they start decorating is how much uneven lines, harsh corners, or untidy ceiling edges can affect the overall feel of a room.

You can spend money on fresh paint, furniture, and flooring, but if the finish between the walls and ceiling looks rough or incomplete, the whole room can still feel “off”.

This is exactly why coving makes such a difference.

It softens those transitions, adds definition to the room, and helps create a cleaner, more finished look overall, especially in older properties where walls and ceilings are rarely perfectly straight.

This type of detail also helps a room feel more thought out and professionally finished rather than looking like a quick cosmetic update.

At Thompson Trades, we know the finish matters just as much as the bigger renovation work. It’s often these final details that completely change how a room feels once decorated.

If you’ve decorated before and still felt like the room never quite came together properly, coving could genuinely be the missing part.

Older homes lose their character when original features disappear.

One thing a lot of homeowners struggle with during renovations is trying to modernise a property without stripping all of its character away.

And honestly, once original details are gone, it can leave a home feeling flat, cold, or like it’s lost part of what made it special in the first place.

This style of decorative moulding adds depth, texture, and character back into a space whilst still allowing the room to feel clean and updated.

It’s the sort of detail people notice without always realising why the room suddenly feels more expensive, more finished, or more in keeping with the age of the property.

At Thompson Trades, we work on both modern and traditional homes, and part of doing the job properly is understanding what actually suits the property rather than just fitting the quickest option.

A lot of people also assume decorative mouldings will feel “too much”, but when they’re fitted correctly and balanced with the room, they can completely elevate the overall finish.

If you’re renovating an older property and trying to keep some of its original charm whilst still making it feel fresh, this type of detail can make a huge difference.
