What matters in Essen
Residential buildings from the reconstruction years in Frohnhausen, Holsterhausen, Altenessen and Steele have thin walls and ceilings that let noise through. Their pitched roofs often hide attics that can become living space. Colliery houses consist of many small rooms that owners now want to rearrange. In the Südviertel and around the main station, office floors are restructured with every change of tenant, with partitions, acoustic ceilings and space for services. On former commercial land in the north, studios and offices are emerging in old halls. In a former mining area, sliding connections help prevent cracks at junctions.
Drywall projects in the Ruhr area run through our head office on Ruhrallee in Essen. On request, the expert team of the division measures up on site, checks ceilings, junctions and service routes and clarifies your requirements for sound, fire and moisture protection. One contact person stays with you until acceptance and brings in electricians, painters and floor layers from our other divisions where needed, so the room is handed over finished. The quote is free and non-binding and names the planned systems and surface quality levels.
Focus areas
Typical jobs in Essen
Soundproofing for noisy flats
Decoupled wall linings in front of party walls and suspended ceilings with insulation noticeably lower noise levels, take up little room depth and can be installed while you live there.
Living space under the pitched roof
When converting Essen attics we combine insulation, vapour control layer and boarding carefully, so the top floor stays bearable in summer and warm and dry in winter.
Restructuring office floors
For tenant changes in the Südviertel we erect partitions, glazed elements and acoustic ceilings in sections, often in the evening or at weekends, so other floors work undisturbed.
Junctions that allow movement
At transitions to solid walls and ceilings we plan sliding connections and joint profiles. Small movements of the structure then do not show up as cracks in the finished paintwork.

FAQ
Frequent questions from Essen
Your question is not listed? Call us or send us a message – we answer personally.
Do I need a building permit for a loft conversion in Essen?
Turning an attic into living space is generally a change of use that requires a permit under the state building code. Escape routes, fire protection and room heights are examined. The city building control office gives binding information. We build to the approved plans of your architect and settle details directly with them.
How much quiet does a wall lining really bring?
A free-standing, insulated lining clearly improves the sound insulation of a thin party wall, especially for speech and television noise. Sound also travels through ceiling, floor and flanking walls, however. That is why we look at the situation on site and tell you honestly what improvement is realistic for what effort.
Do you also build in the cities next to Essen?
The head office in Essen covers the entire Ruhr area. We put up walls and ceilings in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Oberhausen, Bottrop, Gelsenkirchen or Bochum as well. For commercial clients with several sites we plan recurring fit-out standards so that offices or branches look and work the same everywhere.
