The Backyard Focal Point
A media wall is the vertical anchor your backyard is missing — a solid, finished wall built to hold a television outside, year-round, in the Las Vegas climate. It gives the patio a focal point, hides the clutter of a mounted TV, and becomes the spot where every game day, movie night, and pool party ends up. Pair it with a fireplace below or wrap it into a full outdoor kitchen, and you’ve built the room the whole family fights over.
We build and finish the wall from the structure out, in the finish that matches your home — then we mount your TV for you. What you put on the screen is up to you; building the wall that survives the desert sun, wind, and monsoon season is up to us.
Every media wall we build is designed around how your TV sits in it. There are two ways to go, and we’ll walk you through the trade-offs at your consultation.
The TV sits inside a niche built into the wall, so the face of the screen is protected from direct sun, wind, and blowing dust and rain. It’s the cleaner, more finished look and the better choice for our desert climate — and it’s what we recommend for most builds.
The TV hangs flat on the finished wall, the same way it would in your living room. It’s the more budget-friendly option and still looks great — a straightforward way to get the media wall you want for less.
We don’t sell the TV, but we do mount it for you on the finished wall. Have your TV on site and we’ll handle the install.
Our most-requested media wall pairs a linear outdoor fireplace beneath the TV — flame below, fourth quarter above. When we build the two together, we set a hearth or mantel between them to act as a heat block for the television, and we recess the screen into a protected niche so the TV stays shielded from the heat and the weather. It’s the combination that keeps a patio in use from the first cool evening in fall through the desert winter.
The media wall is the most-looked-at surface in the yard, so the finish decides everything. We build in the full range of materials — and mix them when the design calls for it.
Split-face travertine and stacked-stone ledger panels give the wall texture and warmth, and they read beautifully whether the wall stands on its own or wraps a whole outdoor room. A timeless, high-impact look.
Thermory thermally-modified real wood brings a warm, modern, horizontal-plank look that’s built to live outside. It’s a standout finish for a media wall — especially when it carries across into a matching BBQ island or cook zone.
A clean stucco face matches most Las Vegas exteriors and makes the perfect modern backdrop for a recessed TV and a linear fireplace. Simple, timeless, and easy to tie to the house.
Large-format porcelain tile gives a sleek, contemporary finish, and we also build in solid-surface materials — porcelain, granite, quartzite, and Dekton — for counters, hearths, and accent bands that carry through from the media wall to the rest of the space.
A media wall rarely lives alone. More often it’s the anchor of a full outdoor kitchen — the TV wall on one side, the cook zone and BBQ island on the other, designed as one composition so the finishes, proportions, and lighting all belong together. We design the whole room once, even when it’s built in phases.

Stone, wood, stucco, and solid surface combined into one design.
Straight numbers: most Sun West media walls land between $10,000 and $30,000. Where yours falls comes down to three things — size (height and width of the wall), material options (stucco is the value end; stacked stone, Thermory wood, and solid surface climb from there), and equipment (a recessed niche, a fireplace below, speakers, and lighting all add scope). Every proposal is itemized in plain English, and the price only changes if you change the scope.
Deciding between recessed and surface-mounted? Recessed protects the TV and looks more finished — worth it in the desert — while surface-mounting keeps the budget down. We’ll show you both against your actual patio in the design so you can choose with your eyes, not a guess.
We build and finish the wall and then mount your TV on it for you. We don’t sell the television itself — just have it on site and we’ll handle the install, either recessed into a niche or surface-mounted.
Recessed sits the TV inside a niche in the wall, which shields the screen from sun, wind, and weather and gives the cleanest finished look — our recommendation for the desert. Surface-mounted hangs the TV flat on the wall like an indoor setup and is the more budget-friendly option. Both look great; we’ll show you each in the design.
Our job is to build the wall that protects it — a recessed niche shields the screen from direct sun and blowing weather, and when we add a fireplace below we set a hearth or mantel as a heat block between the flame and the TV. For the longest life, most homeowners choose a weather-rated outdoor television; we’ll point you in the right direction.
Yes — it’s our most popular version. We build a linear outdoor fireplace beneath a recessed TV, with a hearth or mantel between them as a heat block. It’s the combination that keeps the patio comfortable and in use through the cooler months.
We build the wall to keep your components tidy and out of the weather and mount the TV. Coordinating the audio/video components is usually handled with your AV installer, though depending on the project we can help coordinate it — just let us know at your consultation.
Stacked stone and stone veneer, Thermory real-wood paneling, smooth stucco, large-format porcelain tile, and solid-surface materials like porcelain, granite, quartzite, and Dekton — used on their own or mixed. We match the wall to your home and the rest of your outdoor space.
Absolutely — it’s often the anchor of a full outdoor kitchen or a matching BBQ island. We design the TV wall and the cook zone as one composition so the finishes and proportions belong together, even if you build in phases.
Most land between $10,000 and $30,000, depending on the size of the wall, the finish materials, and the equipment — a recessed niche, a fireplace below, speakers, and lighting all add to the scope. Every quote is itemized so you can see exactly what drives the number.
