Housing in Wales ranges from terraced streets in the valleys and older industrial towns to stone-built homes in rural areas and modern estates around the cities.

What does a structural alteration involve?

We arrange the structural calculations, support the floors and roof above with temporary props while the wall comes out, install the steel on padstones, then encase it for fire protection and make good. Chimney breast removals and new openings in external walls follow the same process.

  • Planning and building regulations checks under Welsh rules
  • Temporary works and propping
  • Steel beam installation on padstones

How is a structural alteration approved in Rhosllannerchrugog?

Welsh projects need planning clearance from the council under Welsh rules, building regulations approval under the Welsh approved documents, and party wall notices where the work affects a neighbour’s wall or foundations.

Internal work like this does not usually need planning permission in Wales unless the building is listed.

What should I think about before starting?

  • Shared chimney breasts and walls can involve the Party Wall Act.
  • The beam size can mean a downstand in the ceiling unless it is set flush within the floor.

What happens after I enquire?

  2. We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
