What is different about partitioning in Eastleigh?
Offices in Eastleigh range from first-floor suites above the high street to modern units on the edge of town, and the right partition system depends as much on the building as on the budget.
In Eastleigh, installations are often completed in a few days, and we can usually start on site soon after drawings are signed off because the survey answers the practical questions early.
Fire Rated Partition Walls prices in Eastleigh
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 Eastleigh?
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.
Acoustic bonus
Multi-layer fire walls are also good acoustic walls, so plant rooms and stair enclosures keep noise away from the surrounding office.
Work around your hours
Evening and weekend installation can be arranged for occupied Eastleigh offices, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Free survey in Eastleigh
We measure the space, check ceilings, floors and services, and talk through how you want the office to work before anything is priced.
Typical fire rated partition walls projects we see in Eastleigh include stair and lift enclosures, riser enclosures and tenancy separation walls. We follow the manufacturer's tested details for studs, boards, fixings and head, so the wall achieves the classification it is meant to have.

Eastleigh fire rated partition walls FAQs
How soon can you start on a Eastleigh 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 Eastleigh office that stays open.
Do you cover areas near Eastleigh?
Yes. As well as Eastleigh we regularly cover Southampton, Winchester and Fareham, plus the rest of Hampshire and South East. Survey and installation teams are arranged regionally.
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.
What makes a partition wall fire rated?
A partition wall is fire rated when it is built to a manufacturer's tested system, using the specified studs, fire-resistant boards, insulation, fixings and head detail, and installed exactly as tested. Every service penetration must also be fire stopped with compatible tested products. Using fire board alone does not make a wall fire rated.
