How to approach removing a load bearing wall ?
The services of a Structural Engineer will be needed for the safe removal of a load bearing wall– this will involve the engineer in coming up with a method of work, establishing if any supports are required and, if so, specifying them. The method of work and all designs will need to be submitted to the local building control office for approval prior to any work commencing.
Once the Engineers proposal has been approved we carry out our work to the approved designs, and the local building control officer is then invited to inspect the work carried out. Again, We take care of all building control meetings as part of our service.The Building Control Office will, upon satisfactory completion of the work, issue a completion certificate which will be required for any re-mortgage or sale.
