Home theater rooms · Clarksville & Middle TN
A room where the movie is the only thing happening.
Not a TV on a wall. A room built for it — framed, sound handled inside the walls, every wire run before the drywall goes up, and finished so it looks like it was always there.
- Built from studs
- Wiring in before drywall
- Sound handled in the framing
- Can double as a golf sim

The parts that matter
Where home theaters go wrong
Every one of these is cheap to solve during framing and expensive to solve after paint.
Framing stage1
Sound leaking into the rest of the house
Most of this gets solved in the framing — decoupled walls, insulation in the right cavities, a solid-core door with a real seal. Handled while the walls are open it's cheap. Handled after the drywall it's a demo job.
Rough-in stage2
Wiring you can see
Speakers, HDMI, power, network — every run goes in before the drywall. What you end up with is a clean wall with nothing snaking down it and no cord covers.
Design stage3
Lighting that fights the screen
Dimmable, zoned, and placed so nothing throws glare across the picture. Planned into the build instead of added on after you've already noticed the problem.
Finish stage4
A screen that isn't quite straight
Mounted level, centered on where people actually sit, at a height that doesn't wreck your neck by the second hour. It's a small thing you'll notice every single time.
What's in it
What a theater build includes
Scope changes by room. These are the pieces I'm usually handling.
- Layout and framingWalls, soffits and openings squared to the seating, not to the leftover space.
- Sound control in the wallsDecoupling and insulation so the movie stays in the room.
- Low-voltage rough-inEvery speaker, HDMI and network run placed before drywall.
- Electrical coordinatedDedicated circuits and outlets where the gear actually lands.
- Insulation and drywallHung, taped and sanded to a finish that takes paint clean.
- Lighting planDimmable and zoned, with nothing throwing glare at the screen.
- Screen and projector mountLevel, centered and at a height that's comfortable for a long movie.
- Riser or seating platformSo the back row sees the screen and not the back of a head.
- Trim, doors and paintThe part everyone actually looks at, done by someone who does trim for a living.
- Final walkthroughWe walk the punch list together and I fix it before I call it done.

I look at the room, the seating, where the light comes from and what's on the other side of the walls. You get a straight read on what it can become.

Plan the room around the screen
Screen size sets seating distance, seating sets the riser, and the riser sets the framing. We work backwards from the picture.

One written quote
What I'm building and what it costs. If you want it to work as a golf sim too, that's a line in this quote — not a second project later.

Build and rough-in
Framing, sound control, wiring, electrical, insulation, drywall. This is the stretch where the room stops being an idea.

Finish, mount and walk it
Trim, doors, paint, screen and projector mounted and aligned. Then we watch something on it together before I call it done.
Straight answers
Theater questions I get
Yes, and it's the best value on this whole site. The projector, the screen wall, the dark room and the wiring are shared between them. The differences are ceiling height, the hitting surface and an impact screen. If you think you might want both, say so on the first visit — building for both from the start costs a fraction of converting later.
It's better, but a basement corner or a bonus room gets most of the way there. What matters is that you can make it dark and keep the sound inside it.
I build the room, and I mount and wire it. For high-end audio calibration and complicated AV stacks I'll tell you when you're better off with a specialist. I'd rather say that than fake it and leave you with a room that sounds wrong.
It's quoted per room because the range is wide. A bonus room converted with mounting and trim is a completely different job from a basement theater framed from studs with sound control in the walls. You'll get a written number after I see it.
A conversion of a finished room can be under a week. A theater built from studs with soundproofing and a riser runs a few weeks. You get a real window in the quote.
Thinking about a theater and a golf sim in the same room? Tell me on the first call — it changes the framing.
Next step
Tell me the room and what you want to watch in it.
Dimensions, where the seating goes, and whether you'd ever want to hit golf balls in there. That's the whole first conversation.
