Drywall partition installation transforms large spaces into functional, private areas while maintaining flexibility for future layout changes and renovations.

Complete Drywall Partition Installation Services
Our comprehensive approach creates perfectly functional room divisions that integrate seamlessly with your existing space. Every partition installation receives the same attention to detail as permanent construction while maintaining future flexibility.
Standard Room Partitions
Standard room partitions create defined spaces for bedrooms, offices, and living areas using traditional wood or metal stud construction methods. We install proper framing with 16-inch stud spacing to ensure structural stability and provide secure mounting points for fixtures. Our finished partitions receive level 4 or 5 finishes that match existing walls perfectly for a seamless integration.
Temporary and Moveable Walls
Temporary partition systems allow space reconfiguration without permanent structural changes to accommodate evolving needs and future renovations. We design removable wall sections using specialized connection hardware that maintains structural integrity while enabling easy disassembly. These systems work particularly well for rental properties and businesses that require flexible space planning.
Half-Wall Partitions
Half-wall partitions provide visual separation while maintaining open sight lines and natural light flow throughout connected spaces. We construct knee walls at heights ranging from 36 to 54 inches depending on function and design preferences. Half walls work excellently for separating kitchen and dining areas or creating defined workspace zones.
Specialty Partition Solutions
Custom partition solutions accommodate unique architectural challenges like curved walls, angled spaces, and complex room configurations. We design specialty framing systems that follow building contours while maintaining proper structural support throughout the installation. Specialty installations often incorporate built-in shelving, pass-through openings, or decorative elements that enhance functionality and aesthetics.

What Our Customers Say About Our Partition Services
"Needed to split our garage into a workshop and storage area but wanted to keep it flexible for the future. They built a wall that looks permanent but can actually be removed if we change our minds. Perfect solution!"
Carlos M.,

"Turned our huge master bedroom into two rooms for the kids without losing the option to make it big again later. The wall is so solid you'd never guess it's not original construction."
Tracy W.,

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to install a drywall partition?
Most non-load bearing partition installations don't require permits, but we verify local requirements for your specific project. Partitions that include electrical work or affect egress may require permits and inspections.
How thick should a partition wall be for good sound isolation?
Standard partition walls are 3.5 to 5.5 inches thick including drywall and can achieve good sound reduction with proper insulation. We recommend specific thickness based on your sound isolation requirements and available space.
Can partition walls support heavy items like TVs or cabinets?
Yes, properly framed partitions with adequate blocking can support TVs, shelving, and cabinets just like permanent walls. We install appropriate backing and reinforcement during construction for your specific mounting needs.
How long does it take to install a typical room partition?
Most standard partition installations take 2-4 days from start to finish including drying time for joint compound. Timeline depends on partition size, complexity, and finishing requirements for your specific project.
Can I run electrical wiring through partition walls?
Yes, we can install electrical wiring and outlets in partition walls during construction for lighting and power needs. Electrical work requires proper permits and must be performed by licensed electricians for code compliance.
