LOAD BEARING WALL REMOVAL

Removing a load bearing wall is a specialist job which should only be carried out by experienced builders.

The term "load bearing wall" covers a range of different scenarios:
1.Taking the weight of a roof
2.Taking the weight of the floor above
3.Carrying a staircase
4.Taking the weight of a gable wall above
5.Carrying a chimney on the floor above

After the wall has been propped for safety, it is removed and either a steel beam or a concrete lintel is inserted under the "load" and packed tightly to ensure a durable and robust job.
