Suspended ceilings and partitions in South Glamorgan
Businesses across South Glamorgan use us for suspended ceilings and partitions because one team manages the design, the trades and the sign-off. We regularly quote in Penarth, Cardiff, Barry.
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.
Working in South Glamorgan
Typical South Glamorgan jobs for this service involve high street units and corner shops, as well as showrooms and trade counters. We check the lease, access and service capacity before pricing.
South Wales town centres, from the capital to the valleys, have many older terraced shop units where fit-outs need careful work around existing structure and services.
What does the work include?

- Plasterboard ceilings and bulkheads
