What is different about partitioning in Kingston upon Thames?
A lot of Kingston upon Thames's office space sits in multi-let buildings where the landlord's fit-out rules set what can fix to ceilings and floors. We read those rules early so the design is approved first time.
Many Kingston upon Thames occupiers are on shorter leases or flexible terms, so we talk through demountable options and dilapidations at the start rather than leaving them for the end of the lease.
Fire Rated Partition Walls prices in Kingston upon Thames
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 Kingston upon Thames?
Tested systems, documented
We use manufacturers' tested partition systems and hand over the relevant performance and test evidence at completion.
Penetrations planned
Services crossing the wall are coordinated in advance and sealed with tested products, which is where most fire walls actually fail in inspections.
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.
Typical fire rated partition walls projects we see in Kingston upon Thames include stair and lift enclosures, 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 |
|---|---|
| Test standard | Non-loadbearing walls tested to BS EN 1364-1 (older data to BS 476-22) |
| Insulation | Mineral wool to the system specification |

Kingston upon Thames fire rated partition walls FAQs
How much do fire rated partition walls cost in Kingston upon Thames?
Our guide price for fire rated partition walls is £75–£125 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Kingston upon Thames project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
How soon can you start on a Kingston upon Thames project?
Typical lead time for fire rated partition walls is 1–3 weeks from signed-off drawings, mostly because materials are made to measure. Installation itself is usually a matter of days for a typical office, and we can phase work around a Kingston upon Thames office that stays open.
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.
Who signs off a fire rated partition wall?
Where walls affect escape routes or compartmentation, Building Control normally reviews and inspects the work. Your fire risk assessor will also want evidence for the fire risk assessment. We hand over the system classification, fire-stopping records and photographs so both can verify what was built.
