Flat, load-bearing wall analysis London
Creating an open plan space usually means removing walls
Opening up the space in your kitchen, dining room or across separate rooms, often relies on removing internal walls. To avoid a potential risk to the structural integrity of your property, you will need to know if the wall is load-bearing or a partition wall.
If you live in a flat you may also need to secure permission from the association board before you begin the work. And no matter where you live, it is nearly guaranteed that you will require a building permit to replace your wall with a support beam.

Load-bearing wall evaluation
Calculate the load and assess your apartment’s walls, foundations, roof, and framework. We offers recommendations and ensuring that any modifications are carried out safely and in compliance with structural standards.
CHANGE WALLS IN a Condo
Usually, you cannot change walls in a flat / apartment without obtaining approval from the association, and it can also happen that it becomes subject to planning permission, depending on the extent.
We have the experience and expertise required to carry out conversion processes in a safe and efficient manner. We help you from start to finish – from the initial planning and design of the conversion solution to implementation and final approval.
For eg flat owners who need to implement a change, it is important to have a reliable partner who can also navigate through the technical and legal aspects of the process.
load bearing wall removal
Switching off means that you change how loads from the floors and roof above are carried down into the foundation, the purpose is usually to open up and get a more open floor plan. An offset is an engineering process where the structure of a load-bearing wall is modified, usually by introducing an offset beam that can carry the load when the wall is partially or completely removed.
You want to create new spaces and better functionality in a condominium or other property, while maintaining the building’s load-bearing structure without the risk of subsidence or the like.
It requires careful planning, calculation and knowledge of building construction to be done correctly. After a thorough wall investigation, the next step is often a change, especially in cases where structural changes are needed to improve or adapt a home.
