What should Edinburgh projects plan for?
Older stock across Edinburgh — period buildings, converted warehouses and 1960s–80s blocks — tends to have uneven floors and varied ceiling heights, which is why every quote here follows a measured survey rather than a guess.
Across Edinburgh we see a lot of mixed-use space — offices next to workshops, clinics or showrooms — where partitions have to deal with noise, dust or fire separation as well as privacy.
How much do partition removal & strip-out cost in Edinburgh?
Partition type, height, access and floor level, out-of-hours working, how much making good is needed to ceilings and floors, and waste volumes set the price per m². Typical lead time: within 1–2 weeks. Guide prices, supply and install — fixed after a free survey.
Why choose us in Edinburgh?
Tidy, protected sites
Floors and finishes are protected, waste is removed and the area is cleaned before handover.
Dilapidations understood
At lease end, we work to the schedule of dilapidations so the reinstatement matches what the landlord is entitled to require.
Services made safe first
Power, data and fire alarm connections in walls are isolated before work starts, avoiding the damage and downtime that rushed strip-outs cause.
Snagging and aftercare
We return to adjust doors and closers after the building settles, and repairs or alterations are only a call away.
Removing partitions sounds simple, but office strip-outs go wrong in predictable ways: services left live inside walls, ceiling grids collapsing when the head track comes out, floors damaged under base channels, and skips full of glass that should have been recycled. We start by checking what is inside and above the walls, isolating power and data with your electrician, and agreeing what stays. Glass is removed whole where possible, then packed for recycling; aluminium, steel and plasterboard are separated for recycling too.

Partition Removal & Strip-Out in Edinburgh: FAQs
How much do partition removal & strip-out cost in Edinburgh?
Our guide price for partition removal & strip-out is £20–£45 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Edinburgh project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
Will our Edinburgh landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Edinburgh office, the lease will usually require landlord consent — often a licence for alterations — before partitions are installed. We supply drawings, specifications and method statements to support the application.
Do I need an asbestos survey before removing partitions?
If the building was built before 2000, check the asbestos register before any strip-out. Asbestos can be present in older partitions, ceilings, floor tiles and around services. Where intrusive work is planned and the register does not cover it, a refurbishment and demolition survey is usually needed first.
Do I have to remove partitions at the end of my lease?
It depends on your lease and licence for alterations. Many leases require the space to be returned to its original state, which can include removing partitions you installed. The landlord's schedule of dilapidations sets out what is required. We read it before pricing reinstatement works.
