What should Dundee projects plan for?
For Dundee offices that stay occupied during the works, we split the installation into zones so only a small part of the floor is affected at any one time.
Many Dundee workplaces are owner-occupied, which makes it easier to choose systems for the long term — acoustic glass for meeting rooms, for example, rather than the cheapest option.
How much do fire rated partition walls cost in Dundee?
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.
Why choose us in Dundee?
One point of contact
A single project contact handles survey, drawings, ordering and installation, so you are not chasing different trades.
Tidy, protected sites
Floors and finishes are protected, waste is removed and the area is cleaned before handover.
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.
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.
The most common failures are not the boards but the gaps. Cables, pipes and ducts passing through the wall, sockets and back boxes, deflection heads and junctions with the façade all need fire stopping that is compatible with the wall's rating. We plan penetrations with your M&E contractor, use tested fire-stopping products and record what was installed, with photos taken before the second side is closed. At handover you receive the system classification and the fire-stopping record, which your fire risk assessor and Building Control will want to see.

Surveys across Dundee
Survey visits across Dundee — including Dundee, Dundee and Broughty Ferry — are free and carry no obligation. We measure, photograph and note services so the quote is accurate first time.
In Scotland, building standards are administered by local authority verifiers, and some partition works need a building warrant; we flag anything that may need one at survey stage.

Fire Rated Partition Walls in Dundee: FAQs
Do you install fire rated partition walls in Dundee?
Yes. We survey, supply and install fire rated partition walls throughout Dundee and the wider Dundee area, including Dundee and Broughty Ferry. The survey is free and you receive a fixed, written quote before any work is booked.
Can you work out of hours at our Dundee office?
Yes. Evening and weekend installation can be arranged in Dundee 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 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.
Do fire rated walls need fire doors?
Yes. A door in a fire rated wall must be a fire door set tested to the same or appropriate rating, with compatible frame, hinges, closer, seals and signage. A standard door undermines the wall. We supply complete tested door sets and can check existing doors for suitability.
