Hi all
I've got an 1970's (approx) 1st floor apartment made of brick. I'm looking to renovate the bathroom and hopefully remove the internal toilet wall - which I'm pretty sure is also brick.
I've read a few threads that state you need BC approval (which I don't think will be a problem (hopefully ) as I'm on the BC and I've talked to them about this already) and talk to a structural engineer. I've got building plans from the council.
Whilst I'm happy to talk to a SE, because the walls are small & only enclose the toilet, what are your thoughts on it being structural?
Does anyone have any contacts for a SE that are reasonably priced? Do you have an idea how much this would cost? Can a builder be used for this purpose instead of a SE?
Thanks in advance
