What should East Sussex projects plan for?
Many Brighton occupiers are on shorter leases or flexible terms, so we talk through demountable options and dilapidations at the start rather than leaving them for the end of the lease.
For Brighton buildings with older timber floors or plastered ceilings, we check fixings and deflection on survey so the partitions stay true once the building moves with the seasons.
How much do acoustic partition walls cost in East Sussex?
The number of board layers, use of twin or staggered studs or resilient bars, cavity insulation depth and full-height detailing to the slab determine where a wall falls in the range. Typical lead time: 1–3 weeks. Guide prices, supply and install — fixed after a free survey.
Why choose us in East Sussex?
Landlord-ready paperwork
Drawings, method statements and risk assessments are supplied for your landlord or managing agent's approval.
Work around your hours
Evening and weekend installation can be arranged for occupied Brighton offices, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Conversations stay private
Double-layer acoustic walls stop raised voices and video calls being heard next door, supporting confidentiality in HR, legal and management meetings.
Built to a target
We work to a specified rating and detail the junctions that decide it, rather than adding insulation and hoping the wall performs on the day.
We usually specify acoustic walls for HR rooms, board rooms, training rooms beside desks, music and podcast spaces, and offices next to plant or kitchens. The details matter as much as the wall: running it to the underside of the slab, sealing the head and base with acoustic sealant, back-boxing sockets so they are not back-to-back, and choosing sealed acoustic door sets. Done properly, a double-layer acoustic stud wall gives far better privacy than any single glazed partition and is still quick to build.
Key specifications
| Framing | Steel studs 70–146mm; staggered or twin frames for higher ratings |
|---|---|
| Boarding | Two layers of 12.5mm or 15mm acoustic or high-density plasterboard each side |
| Insulation | 50–100mm acoustic mineral wool in the cavity |
| Junctions | Full height to slab, acoustic sealant at head, base and abutments |
Surveys across East Sussex
We cover Brighton along with nearby Brighton, Hove and Eastbourne. Surveys are free and usually take under an hour for a typical office floor.
In England, partition works that affect fire safety or means of escape fall under the Building Regulations, so we flag anything that may need Building Control at survey stage.

Acoustic Partition Walls in East Sussex: FAQs
How much do acoustic partition walls cost in Brighton?
Our guide price for acoustic partition walls is £80–£130 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Brighton project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
Can you work out of hours at our Brighton office?
Yes. Evening and weekend installation can be arranged in Brighton so the office keeps running. Out-of-hours working usually adds a percentage to the labour cost, which is shown clearly on the quote.
How much sound does an acoustic partition wall block?
A double-layer acoustic stud wall typically achieves around Rw 50–58 dB in lab tests, compared with about Rw 40–45 dB for a standard single-layer wall. In practice that means raised voices and video calls are not intelligible next door. On-site results are usually a few decibels lower because of flanking.
What makes a partition wall soundproof?
Mass, separation and sealing. Heavier acoustic plasterboard in two layers adds mass, mineral wool and decoupled studs reduce vibration, and sealing every junction stops sound leaking around the edges. The wall should run to the slab, and doors need drop seals. No office wall is completely soundproof.
