Planning fire rated partition walls in Truro: local points
Smaller Truro offices often need just a few metres of partitioning — a manager's room, a meeting space or a quiet booth — and we are happy to take on compact jobs as well as larger ones.
For Truro businesses that share a building, we keep noise, dust and deliveries to agreed windows so neighbours are not disturbed.
How much do fire rated partition walls cost in Truro?
The required duration (30, 60 or 90 minutes), number of fire board layers, wall height and the extent of fire stopping around services and at the head set the price. Typical lead time: 1–3 weeks. Guide prices, supply and install — fixed after a free survey.
What do you get with us in Truro?
Landlord-ready paperwork
Drawings, method statements and risk assessments are supplied for your landlord or managing agent's approval.
Clear guide prices online
Our fire rated partition walls prices are published as guide ranges, so you can budget before the survey.
Acoustic bonus
Multi-layer fire walls are also good acoustic walls, so plant rooms and stair enclosures keep noise away from the surrounding office.
Handover records
You receive the system classification, fire-stopping record and photographs, giving your fire risk assessor and Building Control clear evidence of what was built.
Typical fire rated partition walls projects we see in Truro include protected escape corridors, stair and lift enclosures and riser enclosures. Services crossing the wall are coordinated in advance and sealed with tested products, which is where most fire walls actually fail in inspections.
What specification is typical?
| Framing | Steel studs 50–146mm at the system's specified centres |
|---|---|
| Fire stopping | Tested collars, wraps, sealants and batts for every penetration |
| Acoustic performance | Approx. Rw 45–55 dB depending on build-up (lab) |
Covering Truro and nearby
If you are in Truro or close by in Falmouth or Camborne, book a free survey and we will come and measure. You will receive drawings and a fixed price before you commit to anything.
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.

Truro fire rated partition walls FAQs
Do you install fire rated partition walls in Truro?
Yes. We survey, supply and install fire rated partition walls throughout Truro and the wider Cornwall area, including Falmouth and Newquay. The survey is free and you receive a fixed, written quote before any work is booked.
Will our Truro landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Truro 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 does a fire rated partition wall cost?
Fire rated partition walls typically cost £75–£125 per m² supplied and installed, excluding VAT. A 30-minute wall with one layer of fire board each side sits at the lower end; 60 or 90-minute walls with multiple layers and extensive fire stopping sit at the top. Fire doors are priced separately. We confirm a fixed price after a free survey.
How long does a fire rated stud wall last in a fire?
Office fire walls are commonly classified for 30, 60 or 90 minutes, such as EI 30 or EI 60. That figure is the time the tested wall maintained integrity and insulation in a standard furnace test. The duration you need is set by the building's fire strategy and Approved Document B.
