What should Worcestershire projects plan for?
Where a Worcester building has a managing agent, we provide method statements, risk assessments and drawings in advance so the licence for alterations is not held up.
In Worcester, 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.
How much do fire rated partition walls cost in Worcestershire?
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 Worcestershire?
Acoustic bonus
Multi-layer fire walls are also good acoustic walls, so plant rooms and stair enclosures keep noise away from the surrounding office.
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.
Clear guide prices online
Our fire rated partition walls prices are published as guide ranges, so you can budget before the survey.
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 Worcestershire
We cover Worcester along with nearby Worcester, Redditch and Kidderminster. Surveys are free and usually take under an hour for a typical office floor.
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.

A member of the team measures the Worcester office, notes access and services, and discusses layout, privacy and acoustics with you.

Manufacture and planning

Fire Rated Partition Walls in Worcestershire: FAQs
Do you install fire rated partition walls in Worcester?
Yes. We survey, supply and install fire rated partition walls throughout Worcester and the wider Worcestershire area, including Worcester and Redditch. 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 Worcester?
Our guide price for fire rated partition walls is £75–£125 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Worcester 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.
Whether your Worcester project is a single room or a whole floor, we will survey, design and install your fire rated partition walls with one team.
