Ever joined a meeting where the screen won’t connect… there’s no sound… and you’re already 10 minutes in? 🤯

Yeah… now imagine that. But worse.

🚀 Introducing our new series: Should Have Gone to Tateside, a light-hearted look at what happens when AV goes wrong. It shows that while AV might look simple from the outside (and like anyone can do it), the reality is very different. And more often than not, it proves exactly why getting it right the first time really matters…

🎬 Episode 1: Meet the “experts” at Bodge IT/AV.

Their brief: install a meeting room screen.
Simple, right? Anyone can do it…

Well… hit play and see how that works out. 😆

From no audio, to a screen that definitely doesn’t stay where it should - it’s a day in the life of Bodge IT/AV… and let’s just say, it’s not their finest work.

Because when it really matters, there’s a reason people say:
👉 Should Have Gone to Tateside.

Ever worked with someone who wins an award… and suddenly they’re everywhere? Yeah… that’s Jack now. 🙄

🏆 Since being crowned AV Magazinel AV Professional of the Year, we can’t move for mentions of him - in meetings, in articles, probably next on a billboard somewhere.

Jokes aside, Jack has played a huge role in shaping Tateside into the culture-first business it is today, championing grassroots talent, building strong teams, and proving that people really are at the heart of great AV. 🧡

He’s now featured in AV Magazine, sharing insights on leadership, culture, and how investing in people is driving the industry forward.

🌎 It’s been a big year for our global team, and an even bigger achievement to share. Over the past year, we delivered a large-scale upgrade across 6,000+ meeting rooms worldwide, completing the programme ahead of schedule in early January 2026. 🙌

🚀 This was no small task. From commissioning and deploying 2,300 Mersive Technologies Solstice pods to installing HDMI plates and occupancy sensors, implementing RS232 control, and even designing a custom 3D-printed cable lock to sit neatly behind displays - every detail required careful planning and seamless coordination across multiple regions.

What makes this milestone even more significant is that the entire programme (over 450 individual projects) was successfully managed by our UK team, driving consistency and delivery at scale. 🧡

The project also took us across the globe...

UK 🇬🇧
Europe 🇪🇺
Canada 🇨🇦
Singapore 🇸🇬
Indonesia 🇮🇩
Thailand 🇹🇭
Vietnam 🇻🇳
Philippines 🇵🇭

A huge thank you to everyone involved in making this happen. A true team effort from start to finish. 👏

Who doesn’t love a tight deadline? When our managed services client asked us to upgrade their existing 3x3 55” videowall in their boardroom within three weeks, we were like, ‘hey, no sweat!’ 💦

We did sweat a little, but we love a challenge! So with some strong teamwork and support of some brilliant suppliers and partners (shoutout to Unilumin and Vogel's), we managed to get this delivered with two days to spare! 🙌

We decommissioned the existing screens on the Friday, delivered additional framework, and ensured all the LED was on site and ready for a Monday morning install.

By packing out the wall and introducing a clean edge trim, we achieved a flush finish with the surrounding timber, making the video wall feel fully integrated rather than retrofitted.

Job done! Client is delighted! 💃

We’re very good at posting the glossy finished installs on LinkedIn… but what about the bits where it all goes a little bit wrong? 🤯

🎬 In Episode 4 of How AV You Done It?, Jack takes us behind the scenes of our WatchHouse Battersea mirrored display.

👉 The brief: an 8-metre mirrored menu display behind the coffee bar.
👉 The problem: absolutely nothing off-the-shelf exists for that.

💡 Enter our custom modular mirrored OLED solution - four modules of high-brightness OLED goodness bonded to glass.

Then came the fun part: delivering one of the largest pallets we’ve ever handled into Battersea Electric Boulevard. Think tight corners, tricky lifts…

Install day finally arrived. Everything was going smoothly… until a gas strut failed while lowering a screen, flexing the glass and cracking the panel. With handover in two weeks, panic mode was officially ON! 🫣

But, thanks to lightning-fast air freight from China and some heroic customs work, the replacement panels arrived just in time - the client is thrilled, we have a few more grey hairs, but we got a good story out of it! 🧡

🔈 And shout out to BrightSign LLC for the awesome signage!

Out with the old, in with the Neat (like what we did there?)

One of our long-standing managed service clients was ready for an upgrade. Their boardroom, a VIP space, was hampered by clunky, unreliable video conferencing.

💡 That’s where we stepped in. We suggested a refresh and upgraded three key rooms at a well-known South East shopping centre. The management suite was upgraded to a mixture of Neat Bars and Neat Bar Pros, with the boardroom receiving VIP treatment with the addition of dual Neat Centers.

Every room was future-proofed with a simple setup using Lindy UK USB-C extenders, delivering a single cable to the desk for no-fuss presentations.

Meetings are now smooth, simple, and Neat. 😆

It's the year of the meeting room at Tateside, and this time it's Bankside Hotel in London’s Blackfriars, which recently upgraded the AV in its basement. The space includes several meeting rooms, some standalone, some divisible, as well as a public art exhibition. 👊

We helped make the entire basement flexible, so audio and video can be routed between digital signage, projectors, and exhibition areas. Every source is available at every endpoint, with audio split across multiple zones. 🙌

The system runs on Audinate Dante for audio and Blustream for video, all on a dedicated network with NETGEAR AVline switches, controlled via iPad with a QSC Q-SYS backend.

For video conferencing in the meeting rooms, we installed Yealink A50 and A40 video bars, making calls simple and reliable.

We're super proud of this one! 🧡

☕️ We’ve just wrapped up another WatchHouse site, this time at One Millennium Bridge, designed by Cake Architects and fitted out by Cumberland. It’s a warm, mature space, a proper hangout, and we wouldn’t be surprised if Gail’s next door is feeling a little worried!

📺 For this site, we designed a stunning 1.5m x 2m COB LED wall with a 1.2mm pixel pitch, enclosed in a stainless steel chassis with super tight margins. Brightsign powers the display, while Embed Signage manages the wider estate’s CMS needs.

🔈We also handled the background music, choosing Gallo Acoustics A’Diva speakers with stainless steel finishes and grey fabric covers, perfectly complementing the stainless accents throughout the space. The system is powered by Blaze by Sonance Professional DSP and amplification, giving a seamless audio experience.

Beyond AV, we also took care of the data design and installation, along with active IT supply, setup, and ongoing support.

From London to New York, we bring spaces to life, seamlessly blending AV, IT, and design! 👊

👋 Meet Josh, our new Commissioning Engineer!

Josh joins us with a wealth of experience from working within a university environment, which means he brings a strong customer-first mindset and a real understanding of how projects need to move at pace, without ever losing sight of the end user experience. That balance is absolutely key in what we do, and it’s something he’s already demonstrated since day one. 🙌

He stepped into the role following a team change and has hit the ground running. Over the past few months, it’s been a full-on introduction to life at Tateside, getting up to speed on a wide range of our installations, diving headfirst into new projects, learning new DSPs and fully embracing our workflow.

He’s adapted brilliantly, working closely with the support team to troubleshoot and resolve more complex system challenges. It’s been great to see him get stuck in and make the role his own so quickly.

On a personal note from Jack, “He fits right in. An impressive rotation of chequered shirts, a solid beard game, and quite possibly the most remarkable sweet tooth we’ve ever seen, I thought I liked doughnuts, but Josh has taken that to a professional level (and somehow doesn’t put on a pound).” 🍩

💬 Josh says, “The last few months have been a real baptism of fire, where I've been brought up to speed on a staggering number of excellent Tateside installations, and been thrown very much in the deep end on upcoming projects! I'm feeling very lucky to be here, and am looking forward to seeing what we can create next.”

Welcome to the team, Josh! 🎉
