What is different about partitioning in Gloucester?
For Gloucester 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.
Where a Gloucester building has a managing agent, we provide method statements, risk assessments and drawings in advance so the licence for alterations is not held up.
What do fire rated partition walls cost in Gloucester?
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 Gloucester?
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.
Fixed price, in writing
Your quote lists the system, glass, doors, finishes and any extras, so the figure you approve is the figure you pay.
Tested systems, documented
We use manufacturers' tested partition systems and hand over the relevant performance and test evidence at completion.
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.
Typical fire rated partition walls projects we see in Gloucester include protected escape corridors, server, comms and plant rooms and tenancy separation walls. Multi-layer fire walls are also good acoustic walls, so plant rooms and stair enclosures keep noise away from the surrounding office.
What specification is typical?
| Classification | EI 30, EI 60 or EI 90 integrity and insulation, to the tested system |
|---|---|
| Head detail | Tested fire-rated deflection head to accommodate slab movement |
| Fire stopping | Tested collars, wraps, sealants and batts for every penetration |
How do surveys work in Gloucester?
If you are in Gloucester or close by in Cheltenham or Tewkesbury, 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.

Questions about fire rated partition walls in Gloucester
How much do fire rated partition walls cost in Gloucester?
Our guide price for fire rated partition walls is £75–£125 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Gloucester project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
Can you work out of hours at our Gloucester office?
Yes. Evening and weekend installation can be arranged in Gloucester 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 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.
