Suspended ceilings and partitions for London businesses
From the first measured survey to the day you open, our suspended ceilings and partitions work in London is planned around your lease, your landlord and your trading hours.
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 do we plan the job?
For London jobs we confirm loading and parking arrangements early, because access often shapes the programme as much as the build itself.
In and around London we are usually asked to work on showrooms and trade counters and boutiques and independent retailers.
What is included?
- Metal stud partitions
- Fire-rated and acoustic walls
- Drylining of existing walls
- Access hatches and making good
- Grid ceilings with lay-in tiles
What should London 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.
