Suspended ceilings and partitions form the shell of a fit-out: grid or plasterboard ceilings that hide services, and stud walls that divide the sales floor, stockroom, office and toilets.
How is the work priced?
For Hastings jobs we confirm loading and parking arrangements early, because access often shapes the programme as much as the build itself.

What should Hastings owners check first?
- Walls between a shop and a neighbouring unit or flat may need a fire rating.
- Grid ceilings give easy access to services; plasterboard looks cleaner.
- Stockroom walls should be built to take heavy racking fixings.
In England, fit-out work that affects fire escape, structure, drainage or accessibility falls under the Building Regulations and is signed off by local authority or approved inspector building control. Shopfronts, extraction flues and illuminated signs are dealt with separately by the local planning authority.
