Structural Alterations FAQs
Making structural changes to your home can feel like a big step. We’ve answered the most common questions below to help you feel more confident about the process.
What exactly counts as a structural alteration?
A structural alteration involves changing the structure of your home — typically things like removing or moving load-bearing walls, installing steel beams, reconfiguring layouts, or opening up rooms. It could also include reinforcing foundations or modifying roof structures. These types of changes need proper planning and execution, and that’s exactly what we’re here for.
Do I need a structural engineer?
Yes — for most structural changes, a structural engineer will need to assess the property and provide calculations to ensure the work is safe and complies with building regulations. Don’t worry, though — we’ll handle this for you. We work closely with trusted engineers and take care of bringing them in when needed, so you don’t have to coordinate it all yourself.
Will I need building control approval?
Yes. All structural alterations need to meet building regulations, and local building control will need to be informed. This ensures the work is safe, legal, and properly documented for future resale. We handle this part of the process for you, including submitting plans and arranging site inspections if required.
How long does structural alteration work take?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Small structural jobs like removing a single wall might take a few days, while larger reconfigurations could take a couple of weeks. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we start, and we’ll keep everything on track to avoid delays.
Can I still live in my home while the work is being done?
In many cases, yes — especially for minor to mid-level alterations. We work carefully to keep disruption to a minimum and ensure the rest of your home remains safe and functional. If the work is more extensive, we’ll let you know in advance and help plan around it. Either way, we’ll always be upfront and work around your needs wherever possible.
What happens if you find unexpected issues during the work?
It’s not uncommon to uncover hidden surprises like outdated wiring, unsupported beams, or old materials during structural work — especially in older properties. If we find anything unexpected, we’ll explain it clearly, offer your options, and only proceed with your approval. No nasty surprises or hidden costs — just honest advice and a plan to fix it properly.
Is your structural work guaranteed?
Yes, all of our structural work is fully insured and backed by our workmanship guarantee. We take great pride in doing things properly and safely, and we stand by every beam, bolt, and brick we put in. You’ll also receive any relevant compliance paperwork for your records, so you can feel confident long after the job is done.
