Common Questions
Straight answers to the questions we hear most.
How do I know if my wall is load-bearing?
Walls running at right angles to the floor joists above are typically load-bearing, as are walls sitting on or near the foundations below. We can assess this on a visit — do not attempt to remove a wall without professional advice first.
Do I need building regulations for a wall knock through?
Yes, always. Structural work affecting load-bearing walls requires building regulations approval regardless of whether planning permission is needed. We handle the notification, inspections, and completion certificate as standard.
How long does a structural wall removal take?
A straightforward wall removal with RSJ steel beam installation typically takes 1 to 3 days for the structural work, plus another day or two for plastering and making good. We work efficiently and keep the house liveable throughout.
What size steel beam do I need?
Beam specification depends on the span, the load above, and the floor structure. Our structural engineer calculates the correct size for every job — you won't be guessing or over-specifying.
