Why do Newton Abbot businesses choose us?
Free survey in Newton Abbot
We measure the space, check ceilings, floors and services, and talk through how you want the office to work before anything is priced.
Acoustic bonus
Multi-layer fire walls are also good acoustic walls, so plant rooms and stair enclosures keep noise away from the surrounding office.
Built to the tested system
We follow the manufacturer's tested details for studs, boards, fixings and head, so the wall achieves the classification it is meant to have.
Snagging and aftercare
We return to adjust doors and closers after the building settles, and repairs or alterations are only a call away.

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.
