What should Cambridgeshire projects plan for?
Plenty of Cambridge businesses are growing into space they already lease, so we often reconfigure existing partitions and add new rooms in the same project.
Across Cambridge 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 timber framed glass partitions cost in Cambridgeshire?
Timber species and finish, frame profile, the proportion of glass to solid panel, and matching timber doors with ironmongery are the main factors in the price. Typical lead time: 4–6 weeks. Guide prices, supply and install — fixed after a free survey.
Why choose us in Cambridgeshire?
Landlord-ready paperwork
Drawings, method statements and risk assessments are supplied for your landlord or managing agent's approval.
Refinishable surface
Scuffs and marks on oiled or lacquered timber can be repaired and refinished in place, rather than replacing a damaged frame section entirely.
One point of contact
A single project contact handles survey, drawings, ordering and installation, so you are not chasing different trades.
Joinery that matches
Frames, doors, skirtings and feature slats can share one timber and finish, so the partition reads as part of a single, coordinated interior scheme.
Timber frames are deeper than slim aluminium sections and give a substantial, crafted look. They work particularly well in listed and period buildings, where aluminium can look out of place, and in hospitality-led workplaces. Wood also absorbs some vibration, which helps acoustic performance at the frame. The main trade-offs are a longer lead time, since frames are machined and finished to order, and a little more care in use: timber should be kept away from wet areas and benefits from occasional maintenance of the finish.

Surveys across Cambridgeshire
We cover Cambridge along with nearby Cambridge, Peterborough and Huntingdon. 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.

Timber Framed Glass Partitions in Cambridgeshire: FAQs
Do you install timber framed glass partitions in Cambridge?
Yes. We survey, supply and install timber framed glass partitions throughout Cambridge and the wider Cambridgeshire area, including Cambridge and Peterborough. The survey is free and you receive a fixed, written quote before any work is booked.
Will our Cambridge landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Cambridge 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.
Is oak or ash better for office partitions?
Both are durable hardwoods. Oak has a pronounced grain and slightly warmer tone, and it is the more traditional choice. Ash is paler, with a straighter grain, and suits lighter Scandinavian-style interiors. Both take oil or lacquer finishes, and we can supply samples before you decide.
Can timber framed partitions be fire rated?
Yes, using a tested timber fire-rated glazed screen and door set installed exactly as tested. A standard joinery frame fitted with fire-resistant glass is not a fire-rated partition. If the wall lies on an escape route or compartment line, we specify a tested system and hand over its classification evidence.
Whether your Cambridge project is a single room or a whole floor, we will survey, design and install your timber framed glass partitions with one team.
