Structural Alterations in Kenton

The most common structural alteration request we receive in Kenton is the removal of a ground-floor load-bearing wall to create an open-plan living space. Kenton's long avenues of near-identical 1930s bay-fronted semis — a suburb built almost overnight after the Bakerloo line arrived is the structural context — and in these properties, the wall dividing the front and rear reception rooms is almost always load-bearing, requiring a correctly sized steel beam installed on proper padstones. D-Core Construction Ltd manages this process from engineering brief to building regulations sign-off.

Chimney breast removals, new doorway openings in load-bearing walls, and wall removals to open up floor plans are all structural alteration types we carry out in Kenton. Contact us to discuss your specific project and we will arrange a site visit. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote.
