What should Wiltshire projects plan for?
Where a Swindon building has a managing agent, we provide method statements, risk assessments and drawings in advance so the licence for alterations is not held up.
Smaller floorplates in Swindon make every metre count, so we often recommend glass that keeps daylight moving across the office while still giving managers a private room.
How much do acoustic partition walls cost in Wiltshire?
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 Wiltshire?
Quieter neighbours
Separating meeting rooms, kitchens and print areas from desks reduces distraction, so people working in the open office can concentrate without headphones.
Tidy, protected sites
Floors and finishes are protected, waste is removed and the area is cleaned before handover.
Clear guide prices online
Our acoustic partition walls prices are published as guide ranges, so you can budget before the survey.
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.
Ordinary partitions let more sound through than people expect, especially where walls stop at the ceiling grid or have gaps around services. An acoustic partition wall is built to a target rating from the start. Dense acoustic plasterboard adds mass, double layers reduce weak points at joints, mineral wool damps the cavity, and resilient bars or twin stud frames stop vibration passing straight through the structure. The aim is that a conversation, a video call or a loud presentation stays in the room it belongs to.
Key specifications
| Framing | Steel studs 70–146mm; staggered or twin frames for higher ratings |
|---|---|
| Insulation | 50–100mm acoustic mineral wool in the cavity |
| Acoustic performance | Approx. Rw 50–58 dB double-layer acoustic stud (lab, BS EN ISO 717-1) |
| Decoupling | Resilient bars or independent frames where higher isolation is needed |
Surveys across Wiltshire
We cover Swindon along with nearby Swindon, Salisbury and Chippenham. 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 Wiltshire: FAQs
How much do acoustic partition walls cost in Swindon?
Our guide price for acoustic partition walls is £80–£130 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Swindon project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
Will our Swindon landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Swindon 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 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.
