What should South Glamorgan projects plan for?
City-centre floors in Cardiff often come with raised access floors, high suspended ceilings and busy shared lobbies, so we plan deliveries, lift bookings and permits with the building manager before the team arrives.
Offices in Cardiff range from first-floor suites above the high street to modern units on the edge of town, and the right partition system depends as much on the building as on the budget.
How much do acoustic partition walls cost in South Glamorgan?
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 South Glamorgan?
Snagging and aftercare
We return to adjust doors and closers after the building settles, and repairs or alterations are only a call away.
Free survey in Cardiff
We measure the space, check ceilings, floors and services, and talk through how you want the office to work before anything is priced.
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.
Quieter neighbours
Separating meeting rooms, kitchens and print areas from desks reduces distraction, so people working in the open office can concentrate without headphones.
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 |
| Decoupling | Resilient bars or independent frames where higher isolation is needed |
| Doors | Acoustic door sets with drop seals and perimeter seals, typically Rw 30–40 dB |

Acoustic Partition Walls in South Glamorgan: FAQs
Do you install acoustic partition walls in Cardiff?
Yes. We survey, supply and install acoustic partition walls throughout Cardiff and the wider South Glamorgan area, including Cardiff and Barry. The survey is free and you receive a fixed, written quote before any work is booked.
Will our Cardiff landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Cardiff office, the lease will usually require landlord consent — often a licence for alterations — before partitions are installed. We supply drawings, specifications and method statements to support the application.
How much do acoustic partition walls cost?
Acoustic partition walls typically cost £80–£130 per m² supplied and installed, excluding VAT. A double-layer acoustic board wall with insulation sits at the lower end; twin frames, resilient bars and full-height detailing to the slab push it higher. Acoustic doors are priced separately. We confirm a fixed price after a free survey.
Can I improve the acoustics of an existing partition wall?
Often. Options include adding a layer of acoustic board, sealing gaps at the head and base, filling the void above the ceiling with a barrier, replacing doors with acoustic door sets and moving back-to-back sockets. We survey the existing wall and recommend the changes that make the biggest difference.
