We understand that planning an office fit-out or refurbishment can raise a number of questions, especially if it’s your first time. At Rodley Interiors, we aim to make the process as straightforward and stress-free as possible.
Below, we’ve answered some of the questions we’re most commonly asked by our clients. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, our team is always happy to help – just get in touch!
Costs & Quotations
Once we have all the necessary project details, we aim to provide you with a clear and timely quotation. If we need more information, we’ll let you know straight away to avoid delays.
Yes, we work closely with our finance partner, Bluestone, to enable more and more of our customers to get their projects up and running with affordable monthly payments. See our financing page for more details on how you can spread the cost of your office refurbishment project.
Our site surveys and quotations are free! During the site survey, we will discuss your requirements, offer you helpful suggestions and show you examples of our previous work.
Design & Customisation
Yes, absolutely. Many companies like the cohesive look of their offices matching their branding. We can reflect your company’s colours, logos, symbol elements, graphics & branding in the office fit-out in various ways:
- Aluminium partitioning framework and skirting finished in your company’s colours
- Paint, vinyl, or other wall coverings to match your brand
- Glazing with coloured film, brand graphics or logos
- Carpets and floor coverings that tie in with your branding
- Furniture sourced or upholstered to match your colour scheme
Miscellaneous
With over 35 years’ experience in office fit-out and refurbishment, we’ve built a solid reputation for delivering high-quality work with a personal touch. We take pride in our attention to detail, practical approach, and commitment to doing what’s right for each client, whether it’s a small office update or a complete refurbishment.
But don’t just take our word for it, our 5-star reviews on Google and client testimonials reflect the positive experiences of businesses we’ve worked with across the UK.
Yes, we can. Landlords often require offices to be returned to their original condition at the end of a lease, and our dilapidations service is designed to handle exactly that.
We’ll take care of removing any fit-out works or alterations you’ve made and ensure the space is restored to meet the landlord’s requirements. From removing partitions to reinstating ceilings, flooring, and finishes, we’ll make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Partitioning & Installation
Yes! We can create comfortable office environments within warehouse and factory facilities. Our industrial-grade partitioning solutions allow you to maximise your existing space without relocating. Benefits include:
- Enhanced soundproofing options to minimise warehouse noise
- Cost-effective freestanding partition options that don’t require ceiling-height installation
- Durable materials designed specifically for industrial environments
- Custom configurations to meet your specific administrative needs
We’ve successfully completed numerous warehouse office projects for clients across various industries. Find out more on our Warehouse Office Partitioning page.
Yes, the partitioning systems we install are demountable, meaning they can be dismantled and reassembled as needed.
Reconfiguring within the same office: If your business needs change, these partitions can be reconfigured and added to, creating new layouts. This could be converting open areas into private offices or extending meeting rooms. This flexibility allows for adjustments without significant disruption or mess.
Relocating to a new site: While it’s possible to move demountable partitions to a new location, it’s important to consider factors like the compatibility of the new space’s dimensions and the condition of the partitions after dismantling. In some cases, reusing partitions in a new location can be cost-effective, but it may also involve additional planning and potential modifications.
Yes, we can install partitioning up to high ceiling levels. Glazed partitioning typically has a height limit of around 3000mm, but solid systems offer much more flexibility. Our 75mm and 100mm aluminium-framed partitions can reach up to 4800mm by joining separate boards. For even taller spaces, select 50mm systems can extend up to 6000mm using special heavy-duty uprights. We’ll recommend the most suitable option based on your space, layout, and acoustic requirements. If preferred, lowering the effective ceiling height with a suspended ceiling is also an option.
Project Management and Timelines
Yes, we’ll always do our best to step in and help, whether you’re an existing client or new to us. If another company has let you down, get in touch with our team; we’ll assess your requirements quickly and let you know how we can help.
We aim to complete all projects as quickly and efficiently as possible, without compromising on quality. Many of the products we install have short lead times, and we’ll work closely with you to plan around your schedule. Once we understand your requirements, we can provide a clear timescale for completion.
Absolutely. We understand the importance of keeping your business running smoothly with minimal disruption. If working during regular office hours doesn’t suit your business needs, we can carry out work in the evenings or over the weekend when your staff are out of the building.
Our flexible scheduling helps ensure:
- A safe, clean environment is maintained throughout the project
- Your day-to-day operations continue without interruption
- Noise and disruption are minimised during your key business hours
- Staff productivity isn’t affected by onsite work
Building Control approval may be necessary if you’re changing the use of the area, or undertaking certain larger projects to ensure compliance with health & safety standards. Don’t worry – Rodley Interiors can help with this process in whichever way suits you best.
- Self-application: We can provide you with all the necessary details and guidance so you can apply directly with Building Control if you prefer to manage this aspect yourself.
- Full management: We can handle the entire process on your behalf, including:
- Determining whether your specific project requires Building Control approval
- Preparing all necessary documentation and technical information
- Submitting applications on your behalf
- Arranging inspections at appropriate project stages
- Liaising directly with Building Control officers throughout the process

With our project management, you’ll benefit from:
- A single point of contact throughout the entire process
- Clear timelines and regular progress updates

- Careful supervision to maintain our high-quality standards
You can feel confident that your project will be handled efficiently from start to finish.
Warehouse Office Partitioning
Free-standing warehouse partitioning is a modular system designed to create office spaces within warehouses or factories. Unlike permanent structures, these partitions are quick to install, adaptable to changing needs, and can be relocated if necessary.
- Fast & Non-Disruptive Installation – Installed with minimal disruption to your operations.
- Cost-Effective – More affordable than traditional brick-built offices.
- Flexible & Reconfigurable – Can be moved or adjusted as your business grows.
- Improved Working Conditions – Enhanced soundproofing and climate control for office spaces.
- Customisable Options – Choose from solid or glazed panels, doors, and integrated electrical fittings.
We offer a range of factory office partitions to suit different operational needs:
- Solid Partitioning – Ideal for privacy and sound insulation.
- Glazed Partitioning – Allows natural light while maintaining separation.
- Half-Glazed Partitions – A combination of privacy and visibility.
- Fire-Rated Partitions – For added safety in industrial environments.
Yes, our free-standing warehouse partitioning systems do not require fixing to walls or ceilings, making them an excellent choice for leased properties or spaces with height restrictions.
Absolutely! We provide tailored solutions, ensuring your warehouse offices meet your specific requirements for layout, materials, and additional features.
Yes. We can use specific “sound-proof” partitioning where noise is a big factor.
The partitioning systems we install are of a high specification with excellent acoustic performance. The sound performance rating of our solid partitions is up to 52dB. To further deaden distracting sound, we can fit insulation above the suspended ceiling – this will also improve heat retention.
Very. We have systems available with high fire performance ratings.
There’s more chance of accidents in an industrial environment. Our 75 & 100mm warehouse partitioning systems have excellent fire performance – up to 60 minutes for solid panels. For glazed partitions, we can install specialist heat-resistant glass which offers protection to European Standards. If you still have concerns, then building control can advise where fire-rated partitioning is needed.
Yes. We can fit them with low-maintenance finishes and additional impact protection.
Industrial spaces are often dusty and dirty. Our systems can be fitted with easily maintained finishes so they can be wiped clean with warm, soapy water. For warehouses with high levels of traffic – forklifts, pallet trucks – we can install low-level crash barriers for additional impact protection.
Yes. Free-standing partitioning – which is detached from any ceiling level – is a speciality of ours.
It’s common for warehouse units to have high ceilings. Our free-standing industrial partitions can be “plonked” anywhere! They’re quick to install, which means minimal disruption. We can install an accessible suspended ceiling to enclose the space. Adding insulation gives it the same performance as a standard office environment.
