Fire Rated Partition Walls prices in Lichfield
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 do Lichfield businesses choose us?
Landlord-ready paperwork
Drawings, method statements and risk assessments are supplied for your landlord or managing agent's approval.
Work around your hours
Evening and weekend installation can be arranged for occupied Lichfield offices, keeping disruption to a minimum.
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.
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.
Typical fire rated partition walls projects we see in Lichfield include protected escape corridors, server, comms and plant rooms and kitchens and storage rooms. Multi-layer fire walls are also good acoustic walls, so plant rooms and stair enclosures keep noise away from the surrounding office.

How do surveys work in Lichfield?
Survey visits across Staffordshire — including Lichfield, Tamworth and Sutton Coldfield — are free and carry no obligation. We measure, photograph and note services so the quote is accurate first time.
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.

Production and logistics
Made-to-measure panels are produced and we book deliveries, lifts and parking around your building.

Fire Rated Partition Walls in Lichfield: FAQs
Do you install fire rated partition walls in Lichfield?
Yes. We survey, supply and install fire rated partition walls throughout Lichfield and the wider Staffordshire area, including Tamworth and Sutton Coldfield. The survey is free and you receive a fixed, written quote before any work is booked.
How much do fire rated partition walls cost in Lichfield?
Our guide price for fire rated partition walls is £75–£125 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Lichfield project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the 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.
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.
