STRUCTURAL ALTERATIONS
Structural Alterations
Structural alterations and openings for suitable residential projects, coordinated with the necessary design, support and making good.

What this service can include
- Altered internal openings where structurally suitable
- Open-plan changes within an agreed engineered design
- Lintel and support work associated with new openings
- Structural work forming part of extensions and renovations
- Brickwork and making good after structural changes
- Coordination with structural engineers or approvals where required
How we scope the work
Structural work should never be guessed. Load paths, existing construction, temporary support and the engineer's specification need to be clear before walls or openings are altered. Where calculations or approval are required, those should be in place before the structural stage begins.
Send the property location, a short description and useful photos on WhatsApp. We can then confirm whether the job fits our service area and what information is needed for a quotation or site visit.

Do structural alterations need an engineer?
Many do. Whether calculations are required depends on the change and the existing building. We do not replace the role of a structural engineer where engineering design is needed.
Can you create a larger opening between rooms?
Potentially, subject to the existing structure, design and any required approvals.
Do you make good after structural work?
Associated brickwork, plastering, carpentry and finishing can be included in the agreed scope.
