What should County Durham projects plan for?
In Durham, 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.
Where a Durham building has a managing agent, we provide method statements, risk assessments and drawings in advance so the licence for alterations is not held up.
How much do timber framed glass partitions cost in County Durham?
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 County Durham?
Fits period buildings
Timber sits naturally in listed and character buildings, where aluminium systems can look out of place and may not be acceptable to conservation officers.
Free survey in Durham
We measure the space, check ceilings, floors and services, and talk through how you want the office to work before anything is priced.
Work around your hours
Evening and weekend installation can be arranged for occupied Durham offices, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Warmth and natural material
Hardwood frames soften the look of glass and bring a natural texture into the office, supporting a calmer, more welcoming working environment.
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 County Durham
Survey visits across County Durham — including Durham, Durham and Darlington — 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.

How much do timber framed glass partitions cost?
Timber framed glass partitions typically cost £450–£750 per m² supplied and installed, excluding VAT. Painted hardwood and simple profiles sit at the lower end, while solid oak, moulded profiles, double glazing and matching timber doors sit at the top. We confirm a fixed price after a free site survey.
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 Durham project is a single room or a whole floor, we will survey, design and install your timber framed glass partitions with one team.
